phone convo with mike - we talked about hospitalizations and the habits that've put us there. i remembered claudette to him. he seems to be through the worst of it and is recovering well. he'll be up here soon and we'll get to spend time together.
healing time with self - focused on my center. focused on healing. spending time with myself as if i was a friend is as neccessary as spending time loving the cats. its very similar.

brahmacharya (celibacy) - sexual continence - preserving and sublimating male sexual energy rather than losing it through ejaculation.
