Only the breath is
constant.

Everything else flickers to the
whims of our existence.

In moments of our deepest
longing -

We may simply disappear.

It's the breath that always brings
us back to taste the flesh of
holy pleasures.

It's the breath...until our
very last desire.

When other pleasures call.

Eric, my goodness, you just keep getting better and better.  This is incredible!  After reading this, I sat still (something almost impossible in my house) and became aware of my breathing.  What peace I gained from your words!

With every breath the precious awareness of life and love is renewed.

Breathing with you,
taking in your beauty,
is a holy pleasure
I would never want to miss!

I love you, Margherita

Beautiful... delicious in its spiritual sensuality... and profoundly sweet in its wisdom.

I love you,

There is one other constant, my dear Eric...
the exquisite beauty of your art.  Thank you, as always.
