I do it for ME

I choose my old yoga mat and I didn't know why. 

I decided to do yoga for 30 days.

I lit a candle in my lantern to lead.

I stood on the mat and couldn't feel my left foot.

I stood there broken, damaged, lost.

For 30 days.

After 30 days I was still broken, lost and damaged.

I did this for ME.

30 days on the yoga mat for me.

The 30 days ended, but I continued.

Everyday I stood on my yoga mat for ME.

After 40 days I started to cry on the mat.

Tears of relief, pain and lost.

I crumbled but the yoga mat supported me.

My old yoga mat is now full with tears, pain, loss and sorrow.

But I know why I choose you "old faithful"

One day we will come to an end and you will leave. 

When you leave you will take the tears, pain, loss, damage and sorrow with you.

I need you to heal.

To move on.

To stand strong.

I stand on the yoga mat every day for ME.

ME the one that I lost.

ME that I need to find.

ME that need to heal.

ME that need to let go.

ME!

The time on the mat I give ME!

To be strong

To be free

To feel

To live 

Right now to breathe.

Breathe in

Breathe out.
