Wandering Mind

I've been excited about practicing all day. I couldn't wait to start. but then I realized, frequently when I feel that way it's usually a horrible practice. So I asked myself what makes those practices turn out badly and it's because I expect something from them. I think I'll fly or float or be extraordinarily bendy, and of course, I'm not anything more than one day past yesterday. So when I went into tonights practice I tried to remove the idea of expectations and it turned out to be a lovely practice. And in removing my expectations it was less of a disappointment when L was too under the weather to practice. That made it a little harder to start but I still ended up really enjoying myself and I realize that I don't get excited because I expect something great to happen, I really just like the practice.
