Calvin’s Dad FTW. Eight bucks a gallon? Half the world already pays it—and yet their economies still hum along. Pay that for gas you’d see more efficient vehicles, and less use—more walking, bicycling, less obesity, more local food, less pollution, less asthma. Still, as long as politicians don’t get the support they need to push [...]

I’m alive was my first conscious thought as I peeled my face off the cement and spit a mouthful of blood onto the ground.
My senses felt like they were raging at superhero levels—except that I was blind.
The words ‘I’m in shock right now’ repeated inside my head ominously like an emergency broadcast service announcement.

What gets me riding straight again is the deftly constructed framework of yoga. Like my bike, it’s surprisingly lightweight and elegantly designed. And it’s made of this remarkable material that is described in the Upanishads.

First off, let me say we hoped for you. We prayed for you. And when we knew you were coming, we rubbed the buddha belly, felt you kick and imagined what you would look like. Some of us went to great lengths to have you, had surrogates, or adopted. We were also scared. A couple of kids, at any age…what did we know about parenting?
Then you were here. A small thing, with a red face and star-fish hands. So peaceful. Until about week three, when you became very angry that your womb was gone. We stayed up every night, rocking and consoling you, helpless to ease your suffering, helpless to ease our own suffering.
