Live. And Live Well. BREATHE. Breathe in and Breathe deeply. Be PRESENT. Do not be past. Do not be future. Be now. On a crystal clear, breezy 70 degree day, roll down the windows and FEEL the wind against your skin. Feel the warmth of the sun.

Gloria VanderbiltTo love very much is to love inadequately; we love-that is all. Love cannot be modified without being nullified. Love is a short word but it contains everything. Love means the body, the soul, the life, the entire being. We feel love as we feel the warmth of our blood, we breathe love as we breathe the air, we hold it in ourselves as we hold our thoughts. Nothing more exists for us. Love is not a word; it is a wordless state indicated by four letters.

As soon as I tell you the key to existence. Are you ready? Are you ready for me to tell you?... Always breathe. That's the basis of life, breathing. That's basically the basis. If you don't breathe, you die.
Christopher DurangAs a writer of worship songs, I have a hunger to write deep songs of passionate reverence to God. Yet I'm aware I cannot sing before I have seen.

I can't wait to do another....or maybe ten! Get after it!

Arthur MillerDark Horse movie might be blood, sweat, and tears for Todd Solondz, because things are so important to him and so specific. He has such a rhythm and a tone.

He has everything the way he needs it. And so we can just get there and be whatever he saw in the audition.

I want to really live and breathe the USA.

Jeannette WallsA sob racks my body again, and he wraps his arms around me so tightly I find it difficult to breathe, but it doesn't matter.

You marvel at the tripod of a giraffe bent to water. In Africa, there are iridescent blues on the wings of birds that you do not see anywhere else in nature. In Africa, in the midday heart, you can see blisters in the atmosphere. When you are in Africa, you feel primordial, rocked in the cradle of the world.

Though the night was made for loving, And the day returns too soon, Yet we'll go no more a-roving By the light of the moon.

Madonna CicconeTo discover your real questions, simply take a time-out. Stop looking ahead of yourself at where youโre going or backward at where youโve been.
