Each moment is the first and last of its kind. But we never know when the last will be so live each moment like it will never happen again. What would life feel like if you lived that way. What a concept. This is the lesson of In These Five Breaths.

The wonder
When does it happen? At what point do you realize that you are in a wonderful, magical, mysterious land. A world of sights and sounds that are amazing. When do you open your eyes and see where you are right now. A world of love and beauty. A world of colors and tastes. A world […]
Time, eternity, memory
Doesn’t it fascinate you? It does me. Time. The magic and mystery of it all. Think about it. We live within the fluid of time. We are surrounded by it on all sides. Past, present, future, memory, hopes, dreams, sadness, happiness and on and on all taking place, unfolding in the fluid movement of time. […]
Promise
After all is said and done it comes down to a promise. A promise we make to ourselves. A promise when we were young and just starting out. A promise when the sky was still clear and the future unfiltered. A promise of who we choose to be in the unfolding journey. A promise that […]
The questions

I have seen so many who have stuff and are so lost. Or is it the richness of friendships. The human connection. Reaching out and being there […]
The moment you wake up
For some it seems it never happens. They never wake up. They are constantly going through the day asleep or in some odd alternate reality dream. For these there is only worry and fretting and wanting and desiring and a sadness that fills the moments. And each moment seems empty because … because what? They […]
Return of the Knights
Over the last few years a number of dear friends and mentors have passed. I called them the last of the knights. Honor. Decent. Humble. Courageous. Faithful to the cause. Larger than any issue or challenge. Forces of nature. A class above. These days knights are needed more than ever. Yet fools and jesters seem […]
The workout and ageless living
Once again the coaches showed and explained the work out of the day. Once again the “warm up” was what many other gyms would consider a full final workout. But it was merely the warm up. As the sweat dripped down my forehead I looked at the board to study the workout routine. It was […]
