Easter 2011

What a weekend!

On Thursday afternoon, while my students were writing their final exam all I could think about was the long weekend ahead...it was time to mix things up a bit. Ocho and I were headed into 3 free days that were preceeded and would be followed by reasonable routine workloads. Instead of using the weekend to blow off steam and then recover, I saw an opportunity for us to initiate some real change.

In three days, we moved from doing the master cleanse (aka lemonade diet) to being totally inspired by Brendan Brazier's THRIVE diet. It happened as most good things in my life; a seemingly random sequence of events that drop me off exactly where I'm supposed to be.

Each time I land here I end up contemplating the Eightfold Path...to be continued.
