Day 75: The Sky Speaks
I have been finding it impossible to write The Daily Dharma for the last few days.
When I sit down to write these essays every day, I write from the heart - my life is the curriculum that helps me find the message I want to share. I connect my daily personal experiences to yoga philosophy, using my journey as a way to teach and reflect. But recently, the most relevant thing in my life has felt like something I couldn’t share with my subscribers, because I want to keep it for myself.
Since beginning my recovery from sexual assault, I’ve had many conversations about what dating might look like for me in the future - if I would date again, when I’d be ready, and how a relationship could ever feel safe. I told multiple people that I didn’t see myself sharing a bed with anyone ever again. I also said I had no interest in meeting new men, that if I ever did date again, it would have to be someone I had already known for a long time and been friends with for a long time. And every time I said that, one specific person came to mind.
