A Few Deep Breaths

When a young man in the military, my heart stopped.  Just briefly, but it stopped.  
Alarmed, I went to the medic who made me run in place.  It worked.
Sometimes, it still stops.
A few deep breaths gets it going again.
In time, I've learned that a few deep breaths helps a lot of situations.

    A few deep breaths and 00 12 gauge shells can solve many problems. You could use Zen as a back up plan.

    I have had my breath taken away a few times although my heart was pumping.

    And every once in a while there's a situation where it's better to hold your breath!

    A step back and a deep breath can put lots of things into perspective. Too bad it can't always re-start the heart.

    True, a few deep breaths can be a one-size-fits-all solution to many problems: the stopping of the heart, a slow driver in front of you when you're already late for an appointment...

    I sorta like it when my breath is taken away. Usually the heart pumps like hell to make up for it. Ah Yeah, take my breath away.
