...to keep the channel open.

There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and it will be lost. The world will not have it. It is not your business to determine how good it is nor how valuable nor how it compares with other expressions. It is your business to keep it yours clearly and directly, to keep the channel open. --Martha Graham

What Costa Rica Taught Me

1. I don't melt in a monsoon
2. Bugs can grow really big
3. The jungle is mesmerizing
4. The people of Costa Rica are kind and gentle - all of them
5. I enjoy waking up to the sounds of the howler monkeys
6. Sloths really do move slow
7. Beans and rice are nourishing
8. Yoga in the jungle is delicious
9. Snakes can get into yoga rooms
10. It (whatever "it" is) will never dry

I patiently await my return - next time with more friends :-)
