Quit While You’re Ahead
I bought horse race betting tickets for my grandma today. I don’t like being her source of gambling. I like having a reason to spend time with her, but I don’t like that gambling is the only way we interact these days. Every time I ask her to come to dim sum, she says it’s cold. It’s not that cold.
I think I’m going to tell her, after this time, that I don’t like gambling and that I don’t want to buy tickets for her anymore.
I’m grateful for:
- Having a quickly recovering body, able to practice after slacking off for what seems like forever (in reality more like three days).
- Having friends and relatives with yoga mats who are willing to lend their mats for my future students.
- Having a loving dad who insists on buying dragon fruit for me because he knows I love them.
- Finally finding that hemp nut drink at the Circle K. A good source of protein! Made in Hong Kong!
- Sleeping early and waking early, allowing me to practice.
