I went from 219 to 102 We're still at 312 at 5:50 Cozy on Pandosy at MYK (Moksha Yoga Kelowna) Can't believe it's been a year already Gunna head down to the lake on our lunch break gunna head into Edith, Dina, and Robbi by mistake when this kind of thing happens you know you're in the right place you're in the right place you're in the right place you're in the right place Get myself a muffin from Cat Cafe listening to lectures by Julia C. 58 new faces again this year because Emily and Ryan are here Gunna head down to the lake on our lunch break gunna run into Edith, Dina, and Robbi by mistake when this kind of thing happens you know you're in the right place you're in the right place you're in the right place you're in the right place Watch you soak it all in you're like a sponge Isometric containment in runners lunge It'll come out of you when you need it to You've grown so much but you're still you. Gunna head down to the lake on our lunch break gunna run into Edith, Dina, and Robbi by mistake when this kind of thing happens you know you're in the right place you're in the right place you're in the right place you're in the right place

Life can give sunny life can give rain and I must feel joy I must feel pain life's given me joy, it's given me pain life's given me joy, it's given me pain I've braved the winter I've been snowed in but it gives way to spring, new growth begins life's given way, new growth can begin life's given way, new growth can begin The bubble burst, it's been awhile breath revelation, it makes me smile breath revelation makes me smile breath revelation makes me smile mmm, mmm life's given me joy, it's given me pain life's given me joy, it's given me pain

Sometimes I feel a little undone so I'll walk on the path my Grandpa built and I'll walk it back. From cabin to patio, from patio to lake. I'll bike to 4th beach on a recumbent bike and there's nothing to take. I will remember, I will remember this. I will remember, I will remember this. Sometimes I feel a little bogged down so I'll walk in the sand, I'll walk in the grass in my bare feet. From cabin to patio, from patio to lake. I'll bike to the pier on a banana bike and I'll get an ice cream. I will remember, I will remember this. I will remember, I will remember this. My grandma knew just how to cook a nice apple pie, we'd want the cheese, old cheddar we took. My grandpa knew how to eat corn like a typewriter from the back of the room, and he would cook porridge in the early morning. I will remember, I will remember this. I will remember, I will remember this. I will remember, I will remember this. I will remember, I will remember this.

When you say goodbye it's not goodbye, please don't say it was nice to know you. When you fly away and leave this place and hold some space for yourself When you pack your things into your suitcase Claire, Claire, Claire, Claire, fly away Morning poetry I always read, such a soft way to get to know you words will fly on screen in my basement suite wish I could write like you, so neat and tidy when you write these words, morning poetry Claire, Claire, Claire, Claire, soft and sweet. We'll sing Neil Young before auction hours Unknown Legend just like you. Behind all the scenes you conduct perfect melody in perfect timing when you play your tune, perfect melody Claire, Claire, Claire, Claire, sing for me. Claire, Claire, Claire, Claire, sing for me.

A Journey 04:17
Finding yourself is a journey walk it slowly the rush of time can be broken, shackles discarded I will show me a new page of me daily I'm not the "I" of yesterday, I'm allowed to change greatly. Greatly, greatly, greatly, change greatly. I can feel like anything I want to A man, a woman or neither cause everything within me is also within you swim with it and flow into, swim with and flow into your ether. Into your ether, into your ether, into your ether, flow into your ether. Finding yourself is a journey walk it slowly the weight of time can be lifted, chains removed I will show me a new page of me daily I'm not the "I" of yesterday, I'm allowed to change greatly. Greatly, greatly, greatly, change greatly.
