Simple joys of life

It is my third day at work. Or is it fourth? Um, I can't really recall.

But it has been good.

Um, although yes, skeptics like myself would be quick to dismiss that this is a sign that I will enjoy it.

I truly believe so--that I shouldn't be quick to say I will definitely enjoy it or what.

The 'truth' will be revealed only with time.

...

I went for my first Modern Dance class last night.

Strictly speaking, it is NOT my first class in this genre. It is just 'first' based on my level of concentration.

I have been to previous Modern dance classes but I only remember rolling on the floor and more rolling on the floor, stretching the hamstrings and pulling yourself long...

Well, and I remember that I hadn't put much effort into it. I couldn't comprehend the steps. The exercises didn't make sense.

But I liked the class last night.

No, it wasn't like I had no problems. I just decided that to think less of it and just do it!!!

...

I like my life so far.

Not very exciting. Not very promising.

But it is simple. Filled with simple joys.

I take Japanese class. My teacher is very funny. I plan to take the exam at the end of the year.

I study Spanish on my own. I have taken my evaluations and I am due to be back for class. It is just a matter of timing.

I do modern dance on Tuesdays. It is a completely new activity.

I plan to do dance also on Mondays. My buddy says she is keen. We'll see.

I go for RCIA on Wednesdays. That is tonight.

I do yoga on other weekday nights and weekends. I want to start swimming.

R promised me we will learn Argentina Tango together. I think we can start learning next month.

I have time to meet my friends, date and do volunteer work.

I like my work so far. It is a lot of writing and reading and squirming of eyes and aching of shoulders but it is still ok so far.

I don't have enough sleep but I spend my time travelling on the bus stealing some winks.

Life is good. And I am grateful.

Although I realize...

exploring the world is probably more important to me right now than anything else.

And I will do that.

Somehow. Eventually.
