QotD: Happily Ever After?
How did you celebrate Valentine's Day?
Submitted by Stephen.
I spent Valentines Day making a big batch of Love to share with my students as well as other people in my life, significant and random.
I taught two yoga classes last night (was surprised to have a few couples attend together!). As my students rested in Savasana, I tip-toed around the room, laying out plates full of the sweet surprises. A few told me later that they could smell the cookies as they rested! Everyone enjoyed the sweets after a challenging yoga class!
I also shared my cookies with G-the-janitor (the janitor who cleans the school where my evening classes are held) and the friendly TTC guy in the subway collector booth, who I see each week as I make my way home.
I have three classes today - I'm taking cookies to all of them. I dropped off a small bag of cookies with the homeless guy who sits outside Union Station wrapped in a white blanket (I try to bring him something every week). I gave cookies to the sweet security guys who open the doors for everyone who comes in (even though they don't really have to).
And there are still some cookies left!
My Saturday morning class will feel the Love and I'm going to give cookies to some of my favourite vendors in the St. Lawrence Market when I go there on my Saturday shopping rounds.
I'm saving two cookies for my favourite volunteers at the soup kitchen - an older couple who have been particuarly kind to me.
I'm having so much fun, I may need to make some more! ;-)
