DAY 49 - You a who?

Heh, you look funny! You a who or a what?
- I'm Pinocchio. And you are?
- Oh, I'm Jiminy Cricket. But you, you a who or a what?!
- I'm here to find out. 


Which are you?


A what or a who?


Look and see which.


A what is what you get.
A who is.


A what is what you have.
A who is.


A what changes.
A who is.


A what takes and gives.
A who is.


A what gains and loses
A who is.


A what comes and goes.
A who is.


A what lives and dies.
A who is.


So which are you?


You, a who or you, a what?


Of course both.


Now the problem. Yup, the problem.


Which do you identify more?


A what then you belong to this transient realm and you feel, you fight, you win, you lose then you die.


A who then you're just you and you see and see and see and you're free.


A what has a time limit, an expiration date. A who, none.


When you live to 10 thousand years, do you think you follow the same career in that whole period?! Will you be a doctor or a lawyer, an engineer, a farmer, a fisherman, a teacher, an accountant and an entrepreneur for 10 thousand years?! Will you be a faithful husband or wife for 10 thousand years?! Won't you be bored with doing the same thing?!


10 thousand years is a long time for being a what, but not for being a who. Being a who has no time nor space either. It's beyond, below, behind, before, beneath time and space!


Whether or not you identify with a who, you're already a who. You're somebody. You're you. You a who!


Be a who as you're supposed to then you'll see the timeless beauty of being you.


You can breathe now.


Breathe out . . . now into the Living and Life-giving Eternal Spirit of the One and Only Self-subsistent True Who.


God bless y'all and your breathing.

DAY 48 - Breath Enemy (2) - Words Bind.



The ultimate power of the universe: WORDS.
WORDS can make or break you.
In turn you can make or break lives with WORDS.
What binds?


- Making a promise binds.
- Breaking a promise binds.


- Getting angry binds.
- Giving in to fear binds.


- Believing binds.
- Doubting binds.


Behind everything you do, there are layers of emotions. 
Below each layer of emotion there is a conviction. 
Before the conviction there is a word you heard and trust.


Watch and see. 


You can't make or break a promise unless you convince yourself to!
You can't get angry or give in to fear unless you keep hearing someone insulting you from the inside.
You can't believe or doubt unless you tell yourself to confront the facts and consequences.


All due to words. 



Words start war. Words make peace. 
Words bring death. Words create life. 
Words condemn. Words save.



Words affect emotions. 
Emotions affect breaths.
Breaths affect your health and well-being.


Of course words also free.


You could make a person mad with only one word. Yup, try call your boss, "Stupid!" 


Or you could make a person glad. Say to someone with sincerity, "Thank you. I love you."


You could break a person. Say repeatedly, "You're ugly. You're nobody. You're gonna fail." 


Or you could make a person. Say unceasingly, "You're beautiful. You're good. You can do it."


Choose and use words carefully, especially when dealing with our own fragile heart and others' as well.


You can breathe now. 


Breathe out . . . now into the merciful realm of the ever-creating and loving Eternal Word.


God bless your breaths.
