Yesterday, I went rock climbing at a climbing gym for the first time in many years. I learned, at a very basic level, how to belay, how to climb, and how to approach climbing. I got my butt kicked by a certain practitioner of Budo, but in doing something new I learned new things. My lower back and my shoulders are sore today, but in a good way. It felt good to physically exert myself and use different muscles that I usually use, and to ground myself.

I’ve said goodbye to more connections I’ve made in NC this week, and reestablished a long-made connection with Big Lee from Missoula, MT, who was visiting NC on business. I’ve become more aware of my energy in relationships, and my responsibility for the tools and gifts I’ve been given. I, too, have been a bull in a china shop. I’ve been made aware of the far-reaching effects of my smallest actions, with a hollow ache in my third chakra, and I've accepted responsibility for that - and learned from that, too.

I’m ready to burn.
