Life is just a metaphor. A huge metaphor in a gigantic universe. There are so many ways to alter the universe. Just by thinking about it, your making it breathe. Its alive as long as you stay focused. Taking deep breath's can help you expand it. It is like the beating of your heart. If you stop breathing, your heart will stop working. You would die. Your soul will evolve and become stronger than ever. You will see the big picture and forget what just occurred.
