An Experiment In Breath...

"...Yo it’s crazy, amazing. We can turn our heart through the words we say.
Mountains crumble with every syllable. Hope can live or die..."

Picture yourself sitting in an empty classroom. You're sitting right by the chalkboard. Hands and feet tied to a chair by white strips of cloth. It's midday. The room lights are on yet some blinds are drawn and others only slightly so. A man opens the door, walks across the back of the classroom. Makes his way to the chalkboard where you are and stands right behind you. He puts on a glove with fingertips of metal on his right hand and proceeds to scratch the top of the chalkboard to it's very bottom...

Did you feel that? The cringe inside created by the sound of metal scratching the chalkboard? Look around. There's no classroom, chalkboard or man. Then what just happened? That is the power of "breath" or as you call it...words. If I stood before you and told you this story, all I would have to do after the story was told is mimic the gesture and you would still feel it even after I told you how it was done. Yet here I sit. Miles away and I'm still able to "create" something inside you. This is no "trick"...

Watch your words. They are "spirit" (breath) and have more power than you know. You can create despair, fear and hate or you can create hope, faith and love. It's up to you...I'm out
