Anita was not really a yoga practitioner, but she liked Rodney Yee. I started doing yoga in 1999 (not so much recently) and Yee soon became my favorite yogi. For those who don’t know him, he is a slight Asian man, a former dancer, with an amazing philosophy of life.
Anita had dome some yoga videos [...]
Faith is about how you live your life in the meantime, how you make decisions when you don’t know what for sure is next. What you do with yourself between the last time you heard from God and the next time you hear from God is the ongoing challenge of a life of faith.

On a sheet of paper taped to the wall of our bedroom (formerly Anita’s office) says, “Work is an Act of Worship.”
I used to be afriad that Anita was a workaholic. She was the hardest working person I ever met. In law school, she studied endlessly. At her firms, she was gone long hours. I [...]
