    AF Daily - Saturday August 8, 2009

    hello all!

    dg i used to work in a pathology lab and we used food savers to bag up pieces that were saved from autopsies...yes, those kind of pieces.
    :H

    i listened to an interview with a man who was paralyzed at the age of 13, and who is now a yoga instructor/thinker...he was talking about violence that we do to our bodies and i started to cry thinking about how violent alcohol really is if we look at it from our bodies perspective. then i started to imagine living non-violence within myself as well as in the owrld, and it makes sense. i can integrate my philosophy in life to my life/health. it was an epiphany...it was in the archives of "speaking of faith" from 2007.

    anyway...went top a funeral today...sad, but enlightening in a way. another reason to be kind to myself and others, life is too short and keeps getting shorter!

    have a great night all!

    peace

      Aloha All! wow DG, you're a hard act to follow. I don't have so many words. I was going to say how "brave" I think you (greeny, marshy) are for going to movies by yourself. What is wrong with me? I feel like I am the lonliest person in the world and can't get over seeing every one else hanging out with friends. That's all I'd be obsessing on if I went to a movie by myself. Plus the fact that I hate going to movies and having to put up with people who talk, snore (!), eat loudly, especially candy wrappers, children who kick seats, cell phones...ah... I love me netflix. I just received a box of "stuff" that I shipped from my mothers. It contains all my journals, art, souviners, trinkets, ticket stubs from 30 years ago. What do you do with that stuff? I wrote a lot in those days of young adult anguish, though I was so creative/artistic, but was always stoned/drunk...it was really a time of social adventure . But, back to my question. What do you do with old diaries? I have so much, I saved every letter that was ever written to me...what for? So there are boxes and boxes of this kind of stuff in my life. I sometimes wonder what my children will think when they go through it after I'm gone. "Wow, Mom was such a flake"

        Hulagirl,

        One of the joys of going to the cinema by yourself is that you can sneak off to a quiet daytime show instead of having to co-ordinate friends for the noisy Saturday night session. But I certainly won't be going during the day until kids are back at school!

        Can you put your boxes in the attic/storage and forget about them? I've got some old letters, diaries and stuff that I keep that just sit in a cupboard. I've always found it a very melancholy pursuit to go through them... so I just leave them. Maybe they'll give me something racy to read in my old age :H
