So the whole cleanse thing got started a little later than expected but, as of tomorrow, it will be the longest I've gone without alcohol or caffeine since High School (except for one time when I was REALLY sick). I have to say, it has been interesting. I am also exercising daily and meditating again. I always stay pretty fit but my practice is very up and down so these consecutive longer sessions are really kicking in. A ton of stuff is coming up about self-worth and relationships and I realize how much of my shit is all ego driven. The desire and attachments that suck the joy out of being alive are all my own doing. That doesn't mean I can just cast them off but if I can keep this up who knows, maybe in 10-20 years I'll be content to just be...
