Omigoodness the three of you, such wonderful feedback, support, stories! . .
Daniel - In the context above I wasn't able to follow what was meant about effect and cause. But the rest of your note clicked - and cool! Hadn't thought about meditation in terms of balancing space and focus. Nor would I have thought the word "tone," altho I am, incidentally, listening to something.
Dash, thank you for your story.
Haven't had quite the same experiences, but I relate to your journey cuz I've come lightyears in those same departments since getting out of high school & college. I seem to be in a place now of opening up to growth in more neglected areas, discovering things about myself that are not developed or grown up the way I wish they were, and finally noticing it, becoming able to cultivate new habits that serve better. Growing up, really.

So, after a day hanging with my singing teacher & her husband, fixing my squeaky high E natural and talking about all KINDS of things, then literally playing gymnastics with hubby on the living room floor (yep! regular gym stuff, no sly jokes please!
), the little kid in me is now grinning ear to ear and ready for an ice cream sandwich.
Then I come on here and read these wonderful stories, ideas, techniques, and generally awesome stuff and I feel all
this way:
And what's more, y'all:
Very nice.
Thanks!
