DAY 47 - Breath enemy (1)


Life and death is only a breath away.
Why not fearlessly live and love to the fullest? Yeah!
What hurts? 

Breath hurts. 

Huh?! A breath?! A mere breath hurts?!

Yup. It can and it does again and again when one's careless.

When one's breathing out with hostility, looking out with contempts and speaking out with insults, those breaths hurt.

They hurt others and the environment, but first oneself.

One first hurts oneself in the soul with assaulting breath, in the head with contempting look and in the heart with insulting words.


This is called self-punishment. Yet instead of punishing oneself it'd be best to destroy the hostility, contempts and insults with gentleness, compassion and generosity.


Watch yourself to see when and how often that happens. It's best to obliterate your own impatience and pride with cheerful patience and honest humility. 
                                                           * * *
All human violence come about only due to one problem: one has not yet died to oneself. 


Whether or not you accept or acknowledge the reality of death, it's happening.


Once again, it's best to die to oneselft along with the breath and be fearless. 


Everytime one thinks, breathe out with the breath of gentleness.
Everytime one looks, breathe out with the breath of compassion.
Everytime one speaks, breathe out with the breath of generosity.


Then let go of the self and breathe out . . . now  into the everlasting Holy Spirit of joyous serenity.


God bless y'all

  1. Love knows of no boundaries. Love knows of no pride. Love knows of great sacrafices. When you live and love fearlessly, is when you are truly alive. Don't go through the motions of life, live each moment as if it was your last. LOVE! Thank you, Father. God Bless thee.
