My First Day as an Usher

Today was a big day for me (sort of). I finally started my volunteer work at the meditation group that I attend regularly every Sunday.

Our temple has a slightly different format. There is no pastor or preacher. All services are conducted by own volunteers.

My friends encouraged me to join the volunteer group long time ago but I could not do that then. I love the teachings, I love the meditation, but I was not 100% sure about my choice and my path.

I could not join the volunteer group before because I thought I was lacking something and I was not worth being a volunteer member. It's silly to think that way... people at the temple are wonderful people and they welcome anyone. So it was my battle, inside of me... I was kinda needing some verification (100% sure of my path) before going ahead for volunteering. It is a responsible work, no matter how small tasks are. That is why.

Then about a month ago, I realized something. I realized that I don't need to be sure if this is my path or not. As long as I want to practice this yoga technique, it is all right.

Now I stopped wondering about what my path should be and decided to keep doing whatever I feel good about. This yoga technique effected my life in a big way and I just want to keep practicing more.

I signed up as an usher for the service and all went good. People helped me around to teach me the task. I am glad that I decided to do this!
