lessons in breathing

 

Try to learn to breathe deeply, really to taste food when you eat, and when you sleep, really to sleep. Try as much as possible to be wholly alive with all your might, and when you laugh, laugh like hell. And when you get angry, get good and angry. Try to be alive. You will be dead soon enough.  ||  Hemingway

 

This is actually one of my new year resolutions. Granted, it was never this eloquent until now; it began as more of a blazing intention to really experience (whatever it is I'm able to experience) to the fullest. To participate in a caution-to-the-wind, accept-the-challenge, take-time-to-smell-the-roses kind of way. To revel in being alive.

 

March got me kind of down, with all the snow and sickness, but I'm feeling the motivation again.
