So, Breathe



Even in the depths of suffocating despair
there's always something to reach for
something to live for

so, breathe

inhale 1, 2, 3
exhale 4, 5, 6

think past the pain, see the light

inhale 1, 2, 3
exhale 4, 5, 6

reach for the light
live for the light
breathe.

    You impart a Zen kind of wisdom here, Laurie. When I feel despair, I do exactly what you describe here.

    Definitely what I need to remember in all those stressful moments. Very Zen. Nice.

    You found what is inspirational in this rather depressing pic. Not an easy task.
