You are nothing but the breath in your lungs.

Nothing.

In 18 months of traveling, I have given up almost everything I own. My life fits in a carry on suitcase-and I find it incredibly hard to want to ever live a “normal” lifestyle again.

Owning material items has started to seem like a burden, a chain keeping you tied to one place, a weight keeping you from fully breathing.

Yet, we’re all nothing but a breath, breath so lost in purpose that it clings to the weight, unknowing that the weight is chaining it to the ground.

Come back to what is true.

You are a breath. I am a breath. We are a collective breath.

And absolutely nothing else.
