A Little Peace

Hi dear reader. I am writing in to say hello. There is a good chance we haven't spoken in a while. I've begun a new phase in my life, and my new schedule doesn't include a day off or much free time at all. This is temporary, so please do not take my distance personally. In addition to school and music, I have a job now and am working to raise money for a new project in mind.

But you should come visit me at my job if you live in Austin. I'm working at White Crane on South Congress. It's a Chinese herbal pharmacy, bookstore, gift shop, acupuncture clinic, and a hub for interesting conversations. It's really wonderful!

Also, two weeks ago, I started treating patients in the student clinic at my school. This is a big step! and a wonderful new addition in my life. My first patient came back to see me this week, because the treatment I gave her last time was helpful to her. This feels amazing. I'm looking forward to having more time to blog about my experience of being in a postition to help somebody. I think it is such a phenomenal and profound subject of inquiry and interest.

Meanwhile, I just have to go this period of busy-ness.. through it and it will pay off. I really believe in all the things I am doing, though I do think it is unhealthy to be this busy. I would really be a wreck without qigong. It is doing an incredible job helping me balance things out. I hope all of you, too, are finding a little peace.
