Last year my friend Laura invited her friends (on the internet and in real life) to join her in committing to 100 Days of Sun Salutations. I thought, “That’s a great idea! But I can’t commit to that now.” For whatever reason, the timing wasn’t right, although I probably needed a steady yoga practice last … Continue reading Yoga, Young Life, and Dessert

Ramblings of a 27 year old virgin (Part 2)
A decent amount of my friends in the States have been married/in serious relationships for a while now but the missionary crowd tends to run single (and female) for a bit longer, so it's just now in my late 20s that my making plans with friends is starting to sound like, "Let me check with … Continue reading Ramblings of a 27 year old virgin (Part 2)
Ramblings of a 27 year old virgin (Part 1)
