Life Capsules

The past few weeks have been really something for me. I've been doing PA work for my friend, and have done yoga for the first time in my life; which has led to meeting new friends and making lifetime connections. It's been one amazing roller coaster ride after another. I've been able to start finding myself and putting up the pieces as to who Yue really is and what Yue is capable of (talking in the 3rd person is hilarious! LOL). And so far Yue is becoming more and more complex and complete, despite the "chaos" I've put myself through; good chaos.

The one thing that has shocked me the most is that I have been living up to my name, my Chinese name at least. Again Yue means Moon in Chinese (Mandarin Chinese), and everyone knows that the moon's energy is every mysterious and ethereal and all that. So as I go about finding myself and making new friends and making stronger connections with the friends i already do have, one thing has well stayed the same. People, new and relatively old, have all agreed and said that I am my name, I am the moon. I was walking with a good friend of mine and as we crossed the street, she started turning and looking for me, wondering where I went. And all I could do at this point is say: "Arianne, I'm right here." With that she turns and says that I am so ethereal. That for that moment I simply vanished and like the moon became some mysterious being. Then I met her friends, who are my friends now, they both agreed with her. One of the said that when she saw me, it's as if I didn't have footprints, she knew I was there, but like I wasn't there. The other said, after a group meditation thing and with the biggest warmest smile, "Are you even here.?"

Another happy experience happened when I decided to take yoga for the first time in my life, and yes I was damn scared to look like the hugest fool in class because of the fact that I would be the "new kid" on the block. But going back to the story. I was so afraid that I  would stick out like a sore thumb and not make any friends in class, but I ended up making not one, not two, not three, but A LOT of friends. And ended up surprising myself that I could more or less do the poses and not look so stupid trying to do them.


It's nice to go about life looking for yourself and in the end going beyond your own expectations and proving yourself to yourself that you are more than the person you thought you could be. There are times where you think it is so hard to keep going on, when this time comes, dust yourself and stand up and do that ever impossible head stand pose in yoga and smile, because that moment is the moment where you finally see where your life is going and you'll see it is the right direction. :)
