Day Twenty Six

Today we had the opportunity to visit the Lake Shrine on Sunset Blvd in Malibu.  Since most of us opted to take the 6 am class instead of having to come back and do the 4:30 pm class, it was an early morning and one that my body did not entirely appreciate at that hour.  But, it was well worth the effort since we were able to get up there and enjoy the calmness before most visitors started to arrive.  Here are some pictures from our trip:

There was something very humbling about visiting the Lake Shrine and sensing the stillness and peace that surrounded the grounds.  If ever there was a place to engage in meditation, this is it!  Many thanks to Jason for taking us on this "fieldtrip" and treating us to lunch.  


Tomorrow is the big day - graduation!  I know it's said all the time, but when you're doing something you enjoy there really is no concept of time, only a happiness that comes with each moment.  Although make no mistake about it, there were plenty of days that felt like "ground hog day" with the same repetitive instruction and classes.  But, I wouldn't trade this experience for anything else and am grateful for the support that I received in taking this huge leap.  Congratulations to all the teacher trainers for their hard work and dedication!
