That JiuJiu has done it again! She said something brilliant  You can find her blog here.  Even if you aren’t into jiujitsu specifically, please check it out.  She is a woman of great courage and clarity who doesn’t mince her words.  She is someone I proudly call my friend.

I’m a long distance cyclist. When I ride, everything else melts away, and it becomes meditative for me. Thoughts become single words or physical experiences.  “Food” or “water” from a body perspective or “Rock” or “move” from a danger awareness. point of view.  Yesterday I rode 100 kilometers and a couple of times I realized I was sweating, felt thirsty and had to pee all at the same time.  The three words were water, sweat, pee… and then later AGAIN water, sweat, pee. I woke up at three a.m. with this question.
