Head in the clouds

Have you ever followed your breath?... Close your eyes, pretend the aroma of your grandma's chocolate chip cookies is all around you; exhale, all the way, when you think all the air is out, exhale one more time. Slowly, very slowly, inhale that scent. Enjoy your breath and follow it. Does it reach your entire body and fill it from head to toe? Are there places your breath doesn't reach? Breathe...

Is everything hidden in such plain sight, and we just don't use our eyes or ears? Where did the fraze "head in the clouds" come from? There is something to that... and maybe if you "stop to smell the roses" you can see. The most important things can not be taught, so where exactly do these things come from? Being... just being. Take your shoes off, listen to Mother earth, she talks. Breathe and be, don't think just do.
