Wow, did I fall off or what?

I have fallen off of the face of the earth due to this school thing. I have 6 classes left over the next two weeks and then I am a certified Yoga instructor!!! I am super duper jazzed about this!
I have taught twice the past week within our class and next Thursday I teach my first real class with strangers. Part of me is cocky and confident with it, the other part is scared shitless. I guess it's all how I prepare myself to go into it.
Okay so with that, the holiday is right around the corner. Is it wrong not to do any shopping when I'm working full time and going to school the equivalent of full time hours??? I will be going to Big D for Christmas and I really want to go empty handed and take the family out for a nice event. Any thoughts? Opinions on that? I am still trying to decide if it sounds selfish or not. I am more concerned simply with spending time with the family VS. getting stuff.
My materialism has finally fallen completely to the wayside... I guess that is the true meaning of Yoga.

I do totaly agree about the commercialism intertwined with materilism. It has become repulsive.

Now getting to your question about the christmas "stuff". We either
donate in the persons name an amount to there favorite charity.
You could do that an addition to
going to the sympany in Dallas or even go to an event at Bass hall. It is wonderful there we have gone to a number of events. You could also go to the Gaylord, they have a number of wonderful places to eat and during the holidays they have this outstanding ice sculptures it is about 25.00 - 30.00 per person. It is well worht it.

Ok that is all I have to add about your holiday ideas.

Good luck/ namaste
