Just found out that I will be on TV as part of the FOX5
Good Day Atlanta “Road Warrior” segment that is
being filmed at ZenTea this Wednesday morning (July
15) between 7:00 AM and 9:00 AM.  Set your DVR to
tape it or hang out in your jammies and watch the
show.  ZenTea’s owner, Connie, will be talking about
the different varieties of teas she offers and I will be
teaching a yoga class.

Here’s how you can be on TV, too:  I’m looking for 2
people who could be my students for this taping.  If
you are available to meet at ZenTea from 6:15 AM
through 9:00 AM on Wednesday, July 15, please let
me know ASAP by emailing curvyyogini(at)gmail(dot)net.

Thanks so much for your support and enthusiasm-
My dreams wouldn’t be coming true without you!

Much Love,
stacey.

You shall ask

What good are the dead leaves

And I will tell you

They nourish the sore earth

You shall ask

What reason is there for winter

And I will tell you

To bring about new leaves

You shall ask

Why are the leaves so green

And I will tell you

Because they are rich with life

You shall ask

Why must summer end

And I will tell you

So that the leaves can die.

You Can Be Loved

even if  you are not perfect
even if you don’t know the answer
even if you are horribly confused
even if you can’t make anyone feel better
eveing if you don’t know how to make yourself well
even if you know you made a mistake
even if you don’t know how to be
even if you are ashamed
even if you are hopeless
even if you don’t quite fit in
even if you are scared
even if you are lonely
even if you shouldn’t be having such a hard time right now
even if you don’t think so
even if you haven’t found your place yet
even if you aren’t proud of yourself
even if no one has really seen you before
even if you don’t know what to do
even if you try too hard
even if you’re disappointed
even if you don’t really like yourself right now
even if you are beyond good advice
even if you don’t know how to cry
even if you think this post must be mean for someone other than you.

One of my very favorite poems I’d like to share with you…

God Says Yes To Me

I asked God if it was okay to be melodromatic

and she said yes

I asked her if it was okay to be short

and she said it sure is

I asked her if it was okay to wear nail polish

or not wear nail polish

and she said honey

she calls me that sometimes

she said you can do just exactly

what you want to do

Thanks God I said

And is it even okay if I don’t paragraph

my letters

Sweetcakes God said

who knows where she picked that up

what I’m telling you is

Yes  Yes  Yes

-Kaylin Haught, 1995
