What trouble, illness, pain, or difficulty isn’t worsened, magnified, intensified, by thought?
Your next image, word, sentence, paragraph — can you replace it with a thought-free breath?

Good advice. Write from the heart, not the mind.

Hmm… “breath-writing” — that might be a good term. Thank you.

“breath-writing” existed before written language. We call it song.

Song! That’s it! I knew I was on to something. It only took me a few million years, and your timely nudge, to realize it.

It does seem likely. And even now, as little children, before we have language, we sing without words.

That’s interesting. I always blamed folk songs for killing poetry. Why just read the words when you can hear them with music? Apparently the music came first.
