The Book meme
Shannon over at The Cole Mine tagged me for this interesting meme. Seriously, this was funny, because sitting next to my computer I have not one, not two, not three, but FOUR books that I am reading concurrently. This also does not include the pile sitting next to my side of the bed (much to my husband’s chagrin!).
So here goes:
Pick up the nearest book of 123 pages or more (no cheating!)
The book sitting on top is Bringing Yoga to Life by Donna Farhi. After listing my favorite Yoga resources last week, I pulled this off the shelf to re-read it. Plus, I’m taking a tele-class series with her right now, so it feels like the right time to pick it up again.
The other books, just for fun are: The Artists Way by Julie Cameron, The 12 Secrets of Highly Creative Women by Gail McMeekin, and lastly, The Hip Chick’s Guide to Macrobiotics by Jessica Porter.
Find page 123
This page is about effort and surrender and a story from Donna’s personal experience…
Find the first five sentences
She is looking for a place to teach Yoga and nothing is coming up. She goes home, has a discussion with God, and decides to give it up.
Post the next three sentences
Clearly this was a sign that I should move on to something else. In complete resignation, I decided that I would give up all attempts to find a studio, and if the powers that be wanted me to teach, well, they could find me a place in which to do it. The next morning, the phone rang: “I hear you are looking for a place to teach…”.

I am not going to tag anyone for this meme. If you want to share, let me know. Leave a comment and tell me you have posted this meme!!
Thanks for tagging me Shannon! I love to talk about my book piles!
