Ready for yoga

On my way to a yoga class, I saw a pregnant woman with a big bag waiting to cross the street. She looked very pregnant, maybe seven or eight months. We got across the street,  and I saw she was going into the same building, so I held the door for her as she manoeuvred her wide self and bag through the doorway. I remember thinking it must be so strenuous to have to cope with everyday life when you’re that pregnant.

Inside the yoga studio I got changed and went into the "classroom" to stretch. Then I heard the instructor’s voice: "Good afternoon ladies and gents!" I looked up to see the pregnant woman, clad in stretch attire and ready for action. Respect!
