I was up too late last night...I was hanging out chatting with Anu and Ganesh til after 10pm...And I didn't go straight away to bed once I got home...Very few hours of sleep...Woke up a bit unhappy to be waking up at all let alone 3:50am...I slowly walked to the shala wondering how todays practice would feel...I put down my mat in the back row, close by the ladies room...Sat down and waited for Saraswati to come out and begin practice...When I saw Guruji I smiled and thought, "Oh how wonderful, Guruji will chant our opening mantra today!" And he did...I assumed he'd sit down and I'd hear Saraswati's voice lead us off to the land of sun salutations, but he didn't...He led us in practice this morning! I was really surprised, and really grateful...I haven't been led by Guruji in a full practice since 2006. Last year he didn't lead any practices August through November, and none thus far this trip. Needless to say, regardless of my lack of sleep, I had a most amazing practice - thank you Guruji!
