Almost a Year Later, and still reaping the bennies

Hi, it's been a year since I returned from Upaya. I can hardly believe it is so. I am sadly not sitting at all. I am way back into the main stream of my life, however not at all the same. So when it is all said and done I believe that my time spent at Upaya was one of the wisest choices I have ever made.

I feel and live life way differently these days. After a four month cleaning spree in my home where the goal was to "create space"....i finally finished my makeover with amazing results. Twelve walls painted,two of 'em black. Now thats a staement. 2/3'rds of our things given away, one Italian leather sofa, coupled with a new piece of Karen Kosglog 5ft x 5ft art and wa-la mission acomplished. Our new digs are exactly what we hoped they would be. There is alot more space and way easier to clean. A truer reflection of my new self.
Now it is time to do the very same thing with my inside space. So with all this new room at home I am looking around to see where to set up my altar and sitting space.
Thanks Upaya and all the Buddah-fairies for the guidance. All is not lost. I know my way home now.
in love and lots of sparkles,
lotus girl
P.S. I finally did tatoo "impermanence" on my inside forearm. Like I said I feel and live way differently these days.
