The Breathing Thread...

In light of activity in these forums recently, I have created a thread to help calm things down. Very simple: Take a breather, look out the window, and stop thinking for a minute. Thats it!

P.S.: This is a rhetorical thread. Please do not post to it. Its just a way that everyone here can see something important for a little while. Moderators, feel free to remove if deemed appropriate.

Re: The Breathing Thread...

Breathe, breathe in the air
Don't be afraid to care
Leave but don't leave me
Look around and chose your own ground
For long you live and high you fly
And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry
And all you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be
Run, run rabbit run
Dig that hole, forget the sun,
And when at last the work is done
Don't sit down it's time to dig another one
For long you live and high you fly
But only if you ride the tide
And balanced on the biggest wave
You race toward an early grave.
Home, home again
I like to be here when i can
When I come home cold and tired
Its good to warm my bones beside the fire
Far away
Across the field
A tolling on the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spell

Re: The Breathing Thread...

Okay, I've got the regulator all hooked up to my scuba tank and I'm ready to go. /me breaths in. /me says "aaahh, that's nice" Is this supposed to make me feel strange? Oops, is this the tank of welding gas? Uh oh. /me exhales rapidly and jumps out the window (those were the instructions right? or was it look out the window? ) /me smacks on the ground. /me hurts. Guess it was the other one
