Get to Know... Yirser Ra Hotep (my future Yogi)

My Journey Into Delf is inspired by a need to live with purpose both physically and spiritually.  As I continue on my path, I will share the greatness of those that inspire me to grow.  As you may know, I practice yoga.  In my studies, I found the foremost leader in a style that is truly one in which I will learn to master - Kemetic Yoga.  I'd like you to meet Yirser, my future Yogi. 

My Journey into Delf

Delf:  An excavation; usually a quarry or mine

----------------------------------------------

(a recent conversation that I had with a random dude at the gym)

Random Dude:  "You know sir... you are the future of yoga.  You really are.  You would be welcome in a future class.  Yoga will release your inner greatness.  We should try it."

Me (defending my heterosexuality):  "Yo!  Naw son... I'll pass on that invite.  But thanks."

----------------------------------------------

Rewind.  "Yoga will release your inner greatness" ...wow, I had to reflect on that statement for a minute.  Aside from Random Dudes attempted advance, I did connect with his thought.  I have this continuous quest to stay intellectually and physically fit - and I am willing to try new things that may defy the norm.  I like to stay challenged.   Besides, I don't want to wake up one day to be that dude walking down the street in the year 2025 playing the cassette tape walkman while wearing the cashmere jump suit talking about "how dope" the tunes sound.  Trust me, these dudes still exist out here.  Seriously.
