Me, with our friend Leo, waiting for the shuttle bus and trying to keep warm on our way to one of Amma's programs in San Ramon in November.  One of the things I like about Amma's programs is that there's always a certain element of 'roughing it' - it's never an experience of pure comfort and luxury!  The November visit this year was exceptionally cold, so if it were to be put to a vote, I would vote to hold the November retreat and Devi Bhava in a hotel - thus eliminating the 'roughing it' element perhaps, but we would still have that during her summer visits.

In this photo, I can most definitely see how I'm aging.  It's okay, it's a natural part of life.  I don't take any hormone replacement because I am sensitive to estrogen - so it would not be a good idea.  I'm feeling healthy and that's the main thing, right?  Isn't our friend Leo a positive soul?  He is visiting from Mexico, and was great fun to host in our home.
