I give to thee

I am happy to report that I have returned safely from Bali --  no lost plane, no neti pot use killing me dead. Mostly because I took my mother's advice and decided to "just say no."

So, although I did drag the never-opened white ceramic neti pot half way around the world, I opted not open it, not to use it, regardless of the fact that its daily use was explained in detail and recommended during the training.

I was so grateful to disregard the suggestion, and remain alive and well, that I left it's factory packaging intact, gathered some fruit and flowers at sunrise the last morning of my stay, and  proceeded to the small temple in front of my room to leave them as an offering to the Gods.

You're welcome.
