I would like to be the air that inhabits you for a moment only. I would like to be that unnnoticed & that necessary.

Look, I'm smiling at you, I'm smiling in you, I'm smiling through you. How can I be dead if I breathe in every quiver of your hand?

As the years pass, all we need to achieve is there, in the beginning, ready to be rediscovered. The deepest secret, the greatest prize and the holiest of grails is contained there, where it has always been, within our very existence, the essence of our being, our soul, our heart, our precious breath, this precious moment.author: Suz.

The following is a verse from Haven Trevino's "Tao of Healing"
Quiet the mind
Be still
And watch the breath of God
Rise and fall
In all things.
Allow God's breath
To be your breath;
Allow God's nature
To be your nature.
The nature of God
Is to love and be loved;
Your desire to love creates intention,
Intention focuses attention,
Attention illuminates understanding,
Understanding manifests forgiveness,
Forgiveness is the fountainhead of Love.
Intend to be Love
And know death for what it is:
The inbreath of God.
