Description:
The breathing of the universe creates these small moments we experience as life. With every breath we take in, the whispering force that propels us to vivid actions over the course of a lengthy endeavor. Like keys and locks: in due time it reveals answers and beckons us to search with more questions.
This force surrounds us all and is as impactful as gravity. It is core to our existence like the stardust we are created from and nudges us forward through our own metamorphosis. Our cocoons, the embodiment of our journey, takes those original cells and develops them. Our cells maintain a memory of our former selves that influence the choices we make. Unlike a butterfly who has a clear end of development with the unfurling of newly found wings, we are continually creating and improving ourselves: consistently reemerging with new wings and a drive to improve.


Thoughts:
We are just individuals within the larger dance of the universe, unable to comprehend the larger picture with our limited senses leading to coincidental and serendipitous moments. Our lack of awareness does not detract from the passing mile-wide shooting star overhead, nor does it change it’s relationship with ourselves. It all accumulates and collides into a multitude of moments, some we are lucky enough to experience.

In early theological perspective, before the term and notion of soul was widely adapted, the general concept of breaths passing through us is the makeup of who we are and our existence. during our passing, this breath will flow elsewhere, to a larger gathering or return to whence it came.

In eastern culture, pertaining to the classical and artisan field, every tool and piece of equipment has a breath. The affinity to which we profess this ability is in our professional etiquette: breaths.
