For the past few days, the normal oppressive humidity of Florida has lifted. It seems if you pay attention, you can find fall here. But instead of making you think of football and sweatshirts and morning frost, there is the same hope and blush of spring that I remember from other climates. Winter, when it comes, is no worse than a pair of gloves and a lightweight coat. There is something curiously liberating about knowing the worst of the year is behind you instead of in front of you.
It suits my state of change.
A bothersome task before is an exciting challenge now. That is such a simple statement, but the effect produced in every action and thought is immense, and impossible to articulate well. It is pleasing me to please.
Like a yoga pose that is difficult. I've sweated and cursed and nearly given up, only to find that one day I contort into place naturally, with little effort. It's shocking and you want to show anyone with the patience to watch.
Note: Kukkutasana is a tough one for girls with big asses, and its translation is Cock Pose. And yes, it makes me giggle.
