The art of losing isn’t hard to master..

Elizabeth Bishop

oh yes it is….capitalism wants us to have stuff, our friends want us to have homes, society wants us to have an identity. Last spring at the Iyengar Convention in Dallas, TX (a place I greatly enjoyed visiting), Abhijata Iyengar talked about fear always stemming from the fear of losing something: love, respect, stuff, life, freedom, ego, all the good and yummy stuff that we think we deserve. I’m taking a year to reflect on losing because I am at an age where it is most definitely going to happen.
