In Genesis it talks about God giving people the breath of life I believe that this happened and I am thankful It is also said that Siddhartha Gautama reached enlightenment under the Bodhi Tree by observing his breath in meditation for three days I have always considered the Buddha to be a pretty smart guy My one issue with running is I have trouble breathing When I'm stressed I take in deep breaths I have the repeated verse of Machinehead stuck in my head Breathe in Breathe out The air around us connects us to all living things Sometimes I think that the air I breathe is the same air Allen Ginsberg once breathed and I feel glad I once was in the same room as the air Bob Dylan breathed and that was pretty cool On nights of poetry I breathe in the same air as my friends, whom I love dearly Breathe in Breathe out I started meditating last week and I want to tell everyone If I'm obnoxious I'm not sorry But when you have lived a life of constant divided attention you enjoy not worrying about anything I am hesitant to find someone who takes my breath away Because at times my breath is the only thing I own I am afraid to drown I am afraid to suffocate Breath is what connects us to all living things So breathe Breathe in Breathe out
