Breathless

Breathing is the process that takes oxygen in and carbon dioxide in and then out of the body.

Breathless is not being able to breathe or to be able to breathe except with difficulty.

Music makes me breathless.  The way that all of the instruments and vocals blend together amazing.  I mean who would have ever thought of putting a bunch of loud, obnoxious noisemakers together to form something beautiful?  People make me breathless.  Sometimes, not in a good way.  I don’t know why God even created us the way he did.  Evolution, God, or whatever it is you believe in, it still confuses me.  Odd, isn’t it?  The way we work, think, and associate with others.  It makes me think about how we were thought of.  Art makes me breathless.  I guess music is a form of art, but when I say “art”, I mean like painting and sculpting, etc.  How every color blends together to make paint look like a photo.  Love makes me breathless.  The way that two people can love each other without second guessing themselves is amazing.  My parents are the epitome of the perfect marriage.  17 years and 3 kids later, they still love each other like the day they first met.  They say that they don’t believe in love at first sight, but they do believe that the first time that they looked at each other, they had an instant connection… that is still lasting.

Those are the things that make me “breath with difficulty” or “not be able to breathe”.
