Soma speaking

Shoveling heavy snow the other day, I did something to my back. For the past week now I have been hobbling around as spasms lash out punishing sudden movement. Even sneezing is cause for great anxiety. I was laughing with some friends about how age shows up and presents its calling card.

From the time we are born the body is breaking down. Anatomies start to work less efficiently as the years roll by. Maybe what the body is helping us do is to encourage us to lose some attachment for it, allowing us to get us ready for the day we can shed this skin for something far more effective.
