Sweet Home Alabama

So, I hopped on a plane a couple of days ago to fly back home to Alabama for a short visit with the family. Things here haven't changed much. But it's always a pleasure to see my lovely mother as well as to re-connect with my 4 little neices and nephews (ages 6, 4, 3, and 2).

I spent the day meditating, watching movies, giving a speech about "my life exeriences" at the local creative arts magnet high school (in short, I went to high school with the principle and she invited me to give an informal talk that snowballed into this big production with video cameras and a typed-up program and the whole 9---it was fun though). Then I had lunch with a buddy, dinner with Mom, saw more family and now I'm back at Mom's house.

The weather's a little chilly but all in all things are quiet and steady. I've caught up on all of the celebrity gossip, the news, movies (saw Babel last night), and I plan to clean out my email inbox tomorrow.

I'm back in LA on Thursday night in time to teach my donation class at Maha and looking forward to that. For now, I'll continue to enjoy family, old friends and everyone I encounter.

OK, see you when I see you : )
