Hooping Again

I’m so happy because I’ve felt well enough to hoop the past two mornings.  Yesterday I was a bit tentative because I didn’t feel 100% but this morning I had such a grin on my face when I started dancing and twirling to the music.  (I’d like to bottle that feeling and take a whiff or two throughout the day so as to remember not to get stressed about the small stuff).

I’ve gotten much more coordinated than when I started but I’m still somewhat stiff and sometimes feel a bit like Frankenstein as I move about my living room.  But as I alternate between fluid movement and heavy clomping, I’m slowly internalizing one of life’s basic truths: whatever it is I’m trying to do, I’m always much more successful when I relax into it.  Which, of course, makes me think of the writing process (because don’t all roads lead there?!)   So here it is:

MY SUPER-SECRET NUMBER ONE ABSOLUTE MUST-HAVE HOOPING REVELATION:

       

        Don’t fight the hoop, don’t fight the words
Just move with it, groove with it,
And you’ll end up where you need to be.

      Your mom hoops?! That’s so cool. My mom tried but I was secretly afraid she’d twist her back or something. She’s a “fight the hoop” kind of person, I think. You must let me know when you get yours!
