One Breath at a Time

Life is lived one breath at a time,

First to last,

In and out,

Yin and yang,

Dust to dust.

 

No way to explain the miracle of origin

Except through theory

Or conjecture,

All involving faith and trust.

We just are

And it just is

To thrive throughout the galaxies,

And it all hinges on one breath

From great blue whales

To honeybees.

 

Life is given.

Life is taken.

Life ignoble or sublime.

Life can only be enjoyed

One breath at a time.
