A Karmic Dental Experience

I don't LOVE going to the dentist ... who does ... but I am neurotic about keeping my teeth cavity free. A few days ago I went to Dr. Dorfman (great place if you need an LA dentist) for my 6 month cleaning. It's a large office so unless you specify, you'll get a different hygienist each time. This time I got Suzie. I am a complete baby when it comes to any sort of discomfort or pain, so I decided to close my eyes and try to meditate through this cleaning session. About halfway through plaque removal (so fun), Suzie and I discovered we were both foodies. Hooray! I quit attempting to meditating and enjoyed the rest of my time there as she told be about her large home garden right here in LA! (See Derrek, we did not need to move to Colorado after all!) She grows fresh lettuce, in season veggies and fruit. I think that it's so karmalized that she found a way to get close to the "land" and all mother earth can provide while living in a large city. I for one left the dentist feeling very inspired and that's never happened before :) I'll try to get Suzie to e-mail some pics of her harvest and post them here!
