Just Breathe.

Only Breath ~ by Rumi

Not Christian or Jew or Muslim, not Hindu,Buddhist, sufi, or zen. Not any religion

or cultural system. I am not from the Eastor the West, not out of the ocean or up

from the ground, not natural or ethereal, notcomposed of elements at all. I do not exist,

am not an entity in this world or the next,did not descend from Adam or Eve or any

origin story. My place is placeless, a traceof the traceless. Neither body or soul.

I belong to the beloved, have seen the twoworlds as one and that one call to and know,

first, last, outer, inner, only thatbreath breathing human being.
