A poem by Hafiz.
Even
After
All this time
The sun never says to the earth,
"You owe
Me."
Look
What happens
With a love like that,
It lights the
Whole
Sky.
My yoga instructor read that at the end of class Saturday. Since then, I've been thinking about "a love like that." Thinking about how we expect so much from others, but rarely as much from ourselves. And rarely do we love truly unconditionally. And how it feels when someone does. I love a lot. I don't know if I love like that. Today I will try. Won't you?

Dude, my pregnancy yoga DVD has been saving my butt! Or rather, my diaphragm, but you know what I mean.
(I know yoga wasn't the point of your post, but I had to share.)
