I look forward with festive anticipation.

the legacy instead of the small.
Now. Now I will live large, love boldly,
reach to the edges of my unfurled heart and fully enrolled hope.

Expediency asks the question - is it politic?

that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular;
but one must take it BECAUSE it is right.

when everything was formless.

to each other, shoulder-width apart.

and the tip of my tongue touches the roof of my mouth.
My arms are held in front of me with my elbows bent
and my palms parallel to each other - about four inches apart.
At first I focus on my breathing, and only my breathing.
Later, I visualize the energy or "Qi" between my palms.
