Journey vs destination

Aug 30
Woke up at 6.45 am upon alarm. Body wasn't that alert but I just want to get up. I m recovered and next week to start my sadhanas.
My left shoulder and right elbow is stiff and in pain. Reminds me hata yoga still required. I also feel that yogaasanas now needs to happen. Angamardhana has open up but now need Yogasanas to release the trapped energy.

Did Bhuta Shuddi and sang guru pooja. Did one cycle of Surya kriya but with the pain on my hands I can only touch both feet to ground in the third mountain pose.  Did Breathing but not great. 

Best swim of my life. Finally I know the difference between enjoying the journey vs reaching the destination.
When I swam the first free style for warm up can feel slight pain on my left shoulder and right elbow. Second lap I just continue with my breast stroke. Just going slowly, savouring the water and my breathe.

Somehow feel comfortable breathing in the water. There were many people around and this time they don't trouble me. I just swam towards the middle pool. Just enjoying myself whenever my head goes down the water. I m able to put my head down focus on the bottom pool and my breathe.

Savouring my swim, my journey. I can see that that destination (end of lap) but I m no longer anxious to reach the destination. I am just savouring the water. For the first time truly can savour the journey. So apt that this week Osho tarot card is on the Journey.
