And as if careering across the landscape wasn't enough, today I went to a summer lunch party, with dear Vaishnavi friends. One of them is off to India tomorrow - the hottest time of year! - and invited us together to send her off.
We had a lovely time - really delicious prasadam with stuffed pancakes and other delicacies. And just sitting relaxing in the sunshine.
I came home and chanted a round.
All these would seem like normal activities to most people, but to me they are extraordinary, as I've been unable to do them for so long that it is a source of great satisfaction.
I still have a long way to go - my spirits still tend woefully towards melancholy, drooping and sinking for no seeming reason. I'm pretty fragile yet, but getting stronger and feeling hopeful. Hare Krishna!
