"YES!"

Recently, very recently. I was reminded of the practice of breathing in life and breathing out death. What does this mean? The breath we take, fills our body with one more moment of life, living, thinking, feeling, experiencing....being. As we breath out, we expel toxins, used air, emotions and expired energy...in essence, we are expelling the death of what we've breathed in. And so, as my friend and spiritual father (I like to call him that), Tony, explains, we participate in the continuous cycles of life. Of receiving and releasing.

I like this analogy. Takes some of the fear away when contemplating one's transition from this reality to the next, i.e., life to death.

Okay, my family thinks I'm kooks. Yup. However, I'm not that alone in my kookiness. :) I believe the experiences I have refine my spiritual acceptance of my human way of being. Or is it my human acceptance of my spiritual way of being? :)

Well, I have realized that one can breath in and out about anything in life. From something as simple as watching a butterfly land on a blade of grass to understanding the complexities of relationships and our co-existence on this planet of ours.

I like to think that a hick-up is when you breath in more life than you let out. It's then, a brief moment of enlightenment may be experienced. :)

Breath in - Breath out
Accept - Release
Say "YES" to life and all that you experience! Breathing out becomes easier. :)
