Through Breath

 

Through breath:

it's found as breath - a rebirth through moments, and life continued in a trade of drawn air and its release again to the world. It's alchemy. The breath reveals my most subtle moods, to follow along with its flow brings me to an easy observation, a witness to currents all but unknown to the busy details of my common day. There's no great secret here, what's found is simply qualities of life in greater stillness, an essence of a quite self which remains no matter the layers of thought and beliefs applied. Through breath I come to find my own allowing nature - present all along. 

there is a constant exchange of things for life to be, respiration on a cellular level, compounds broken down to the point of energy - again it comes to essence, everything found smaller, and smaller still to show nothing true as form. Life is energy. Then there comes the breath, respiration of another kind, life in repetition itself, the universe inhaled and channeled through the body's function, and exhaled in a grateful return to the world. 

through breath comes inspiration, life in its most subtle hint of mystery, a whisper not heard by ears but revealed in the depth of true listening - it's grace received through air drawn in from the world and given back again through intimacy of breath. Inspiration is breathing of another kind. 

in this all it's just one thing - aspects of life exchanging information through channels of its reach. I breathe nothing separate from myself, giving back only what truly, already belongs as well. Life is always equal in exchange. 

through breath - I am revealed.
