nothing much

There is nothing much to write.yesterday was a tough day for me as I struggled with my body pains.I almost fell from the stairs and I ended up hurting my right arm.I lost balance when I went down because I have had a headache.It's the women thing coming.I  didnt go to church and I spent more time in bed.I also continued writing my fifth story.Up until now it's not yet done.I dont want to think of deadlines.I just want to do what I can.Oh please..I need more wisdom.


I wanted to go to the shala to practice today but my right arm and shoulders were still painful.I decided instead to do surya namaskar.I felt better afterwards.Amy invited me to go to the salon.I went with her and had footspa.It was a nice bonding.We went to mail something at the post office then bought some food and had lunch at pizza hut.We also went inside a thrift store.I ended up buying a white top worth fifty pesos.Indulgence!


My classes were great today.I also had seen The finale of America's Got Talent and the Semi-Finals fo UK's Got to Dance.These shows really amuse me.In between my breaks, I continued with my writing. I hope I would finish this story tomorrow.

I am looking forward to see my family real soon.Im a bit anxious too as I dont know yet how much i willbe getting from my students this Month.I pray for more contentment.May I learn to trust the universe more this time.

I am generally up and about today.I am glad I am not very emotionally bothered by my PMS.I am grateful for whatever transpired on this last Monday of June. Tomorrow's another milestone.I am ready

Im sending hugs and prayers to everyone.Goodnight!

Namaste!

According to Aristotle, man's form comprises a soul, which has a plant-like part, an animal part, and a rational part.So how should we live?What does it require to live a good life?He answered that man can only achieve happiness by using all his abilities and capabilities.He held that there are three forms of happiness.The first form is alife of pleasure and enjoyment.The second is that happiness is a life as a free and responsible citizen and the third form of happiness is a life as a thinker and philosopher. Aristotle then emphasized that all three criteria must be present at the same time for man to find happiness and fulfillment.He rejected all forms of imbalance.Had he lived today he might have said that a person who only develops his body lives a life that is just as unbalanced as someone who only uses his head.Both extremes are an expression of a warped way of life. The same principles applies in human relationships, where he advocated the "Golden Mean." We must neither be cowardly nor rash, but courageous(too little courage is cowardice, too much is rashness), neither miserly nor extravagant but liberal (not liberal enough is miserly, too liberal is extravagant). The same goes for eating. It is dangerous to eat too little, but also dangerous to eat too much. The ethics of Plato and Aristotle contain echoes of Greek medicine:only by exercising balance and temperance will I achieve a happy and harmonious life.
