Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other
but in looking outward together in the same direction.
~Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and right doing, there is a field.
I will meet you there.
~Rumi

"There are four questions of value in life... What is sacred? Of what is the spirit made? What is worth living for, and what is worth dying for? The answer to each is the same. Only love."
Don Juan deMarco

Yogi Union

Josh and Za (eli-ZA-beth) met at Yoga Source yoga studio in St Louis Missouri in the summer of 2006. Za had noticed Josh (and liked what she saw) when he started showing up to Keith’s Sunday afternoon yoga classes. When Pascale (a mutual yogi friend) brought him to Za’s halloween party and he was dressed as Edward Scissor Hands (one of her favorite childhood movies!) she knew it was meant to be.
