Since Sam and I have been together, he has been "at my service" - now it's my turn. One of my favorite quotes is, "Anything done with awareness is yoga." I don't remember where I heard it or who said it, but I still remember the quote. These days my yoga is helping Sam walk and complete his "daily business" and carrying him up and down our stairs. All with awareness. Awareness that it's okay to ask for help (bark, bark, bark!). Awareness that if you love someone they are never heavy. Awareness that I'm stronger than I look to most people. Awareness that we are all on our own journeys. Sam's energy is strong and he's enjoying his life despite it's current frustrations. He's still learning. Learning how to demand attention for the first time in his 16 years of life. Learning how to lever himself up into a sitting position and carefully pushing up to standing on those tricky hind legs. Learning how to accept help and comfort. Still learning. Sam, I am at your service.
