First off, let me just say that you have been sorely missed at FCY and Wednesdays just haven’t been the same. I miss your deliberate, tenacious adjustments. I am, however completely at peace in the knowledge that you are having this amazing journey. Thank you so much for sharing it.

I’ve really enjoyed reading your blog over the weeks and I felt compelled to comment today because I completely understand the emotional burden you carry having lost my father as well. I was 17 when I lost mine and there is definately a void there that I’ve learned to live/not live with. The loss is a daily reprieve I can’t escape. It’s just there. I see that it is for you as well since you dedicate your practice to your father. I find myself at the same crossroad as yourself…what to do with all these feelings that stick to my ribs like a vise and manifest themselves in laboured breathing. I do know that the first step is just the acknowledgement of whatever it is that ails you. The acknowledgement alone will definately bring you some relief since it draws things to the surface and out of those areas of your body that Kumar described. It sounds like you are on the right track. Stick with it and let me know where it takes you.

Love and Namate, Colleen
