Right here right now

I never thought I would say this but it is too hot. I long for crisp mornings and fresh air. It has got dramatically hotter here over the past two days and I have been practising yoga like a demon and probably not drinking enough water. I managed to find pattern paper and am going to spend tomorrow cutting patterns. Woooooo hooooooooo hoooooooooo!

Its one of the things you dont think about when you go somewhere on holiday, how does it actually feel to go about daily tasks in the tropics? Shopping for groceries, having to wander across town in 40 degrees and the mid day sun looking for a plug adaptor, what happens on the days you cant justify having your business meetings on the beach.... Its not all fun and games.... (well most of it is and in comparison I would still choose this but you do find yourself longing for the cooler season - its coming).

Today the realisation that has kept rearing its head into my conscious is the question are we all on a path? Have you considered that might be the case for you? Events might seemingly have no rhyme or reason that you can see however they lead you to a place which is absolutely where you need to be?

I realised today that I almost came to playa with a girlfriend in 2008 for my birthday! We never made it, we went to Thailand instead for a pretty hideous ten days of food poisoning and conflict of agenda. Regardless I found myself here in 2010, and since then it has kept pulling me back. I clearly need to be here right now. This seems like more than a coincidence. It has made me wonder if other things have conspired to get me here too... were they just happenstance? or is this my path? Part of my journey? I guess the real question is - does it matter? I am right here right now and I love it - that is more than enough.
