Breathing, relating, creating (meaning and more)
Breaths are the ultimate in relationship... they sustain us each minute of our lives, and all they ask is that we invite them in openly and don't hold on to them when it's time to let go.
Reminds me of a Zen quote:
When he comes, we welcome. When he goes, we do not pursue.
Some people, of course, choose to make lack of pursuit mean other things, like lack of interest, lack of caring, lack of love—often without taking responsibility for their meaning making.
I think most of us were trained to believe that meaning is inherent... we've been told that what is really the creation process is just a process of mining or divining.
Anyway, that quote shows up in a great article on doing nothing in our relationships.
