I live in a retirement village where the advertised standards (and food) are unrealistic. I have challenged management to arrive unannounced (as a guest, or a 'mystery shopper' ) to see the disparity between the media-advertisements of how wonderful it all is - and the reality on the plate. I risk alienating friends and staff, but the freedom of stating the truth - which will benefit everyone - outweighs my fear of ostrascisation or expulsion!! Much of this environment I love - but much needs improvement when weighed against what we all pay. Room 326.
During my daily morning Yoga exercises I become aware of my wandering mind, still processing my past life experiences, and my eternal mind - the mind that knows time, space and self as arbitrary concepts.
