Oh.. a funny thing I just remembered

As Rajashree (Bikram's wife) was admonishing us first, about staying out of relationships, and second, about not getting pregnant (a medical miracle in my case), I thought of something a psychic once told me.


Being an acupuncturist, you associate with all kinds of people. The professional. The educated. The wise. The insane, and the esoteric. There is a reliable psychic (I realize how funny that sounds) referred by a very wise colleague of mine. This woman told me various things about my future, a lot which has come to pass.


A year ago she told me I would be teaching. At the time I thought she was speaking about teaching acupuncture (which I had no and still have no desire to do). The last time we spoke she also told me that I would be back in school (at the time I thought she was nuts). But here I am in yoga teacher training.


What's even wilder is that she told me that I would meet a person of 'significance' at said school. Like 'your future wife' significant. I got a little weirded out this morning(I can always tell this because I get his nervous smile that makes me look insane. I can feel it growing on my face even as I'm writing).


It's funny. This Yoga training could have a larger sigificance to my life than just making me a good teacher and tightening my butt. This one event could change my life forever. But realistically there nothing I really can do with this information. It's like getting the weather report. Until you see what tomorrow looks like, tomorrow's forecast isn't worth the paper its printed on.


I'll just continue with living my life. Eating my cereal the same sexy way that I always do :)


Life is pretty weird though and more unexpected things have happened in life (Hey I was convinced six years ago that, by this time, I would a fat balding pissed off physician finishing off his residency in neurology or psychiatry. Probably married with a mortgage living in an east coast suburb).


I shrugged off these ruminations this morning and resumed listening to Rajashree but I did continue to wonder what it would be like to be the first pregnant man on earth.
