Breathing Easy

Breathing easy
  Speaking freely

Walking around
  Head above ground

Eyes take it all in
  Face forms a wide grin

Heart keeps on beating
  No signs of bleeding

Do not take for granted
  What in you God implanted

Oh yes! Absolutely! Take nothing for granted! Without heart we are just a pile of dry bones!

100%. 'A pile of dry bones' without a beating heart. Great comparison, Kim.

So true Gershon, we realize what we had when we loose it. Very insightful...
