i'm practically bubbling over with excitement.
through the young survivors group that i'm a part of here in sf, i found an all-day yoga retreat in golden gate park - free to cancer survivors. AND i found an organization that sets up cancer survivors with free yoga classes in your neighborhood. !!!! it is SO what i need.

This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
As an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.
Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.
-Mewlana Jalaluddin Rumi 1207-1273, written in 1230
