I am breath

I have been focusing on the breath as a way to stop the mind. It works, but I am so used to the mind and all of its functions that it is a constant process. I have to really apply awareness to each and every breath in order to maintain a silence of the mind. This results in an overall awareness of just that I am. There is nothing more that what I am in each and every breath. The answer is not "out there" somewhere is. It is within and as the breath. Simple, but it takes a constant and consistent effort. It is a process and someday it will be natural.

I forgive myself for allowing myself to be enslaved to the mind consciousness system.

I forgive myself for allowing myself to feel bad about being enslaved.

I forgive myself for allowing myself to be distracted from myself.

I forgive myself for allowing myself to not be in the moment.

I forgive myself for allowing myself to forget the breath.

I forgive myself for allowing myself to forget I am.

This is the beginning of a process of self-honesty. The beginning of a realization of who I am, as one with all, as existence of and as the breath.
