Breath

“Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart.” – W. Wordsworth
And I listen for its breath, and at times gasp. Is that what my heart wants, should I follow it, or ignore its steady persistent breathing…become a pilot, writer, actor, doctor. Live bigger, larger…take a risk. Our lives are so quickly lost, or changed in a moment. We need to breathe life deeply, listening to our hearts breath. Following its call to do the impossible…go back to school, learn to sail. Become larger than you are. We all have a place of brilliance: it scares us to see what we might be capable of. Dream big, gulp life…Breath.
