(BOTH SERIOUS AND FUNNY)Good reasons to keep breathing.

Updated on November 5, 2012

Time to wake up

l´ve seen my father-in-law die in my husbands arms, simply no longer able to breathe.

l´ve seen a friend have such a panic attack that she had serious trouble trying to take a breath. BREATHE, SUE, just BREATHE.. In and out in and out..........

l´ve seen silly teenagers bet each other who can last the longest without taking a breath until one of them went blue in the face.

Breathing for most of us is natural but at this time of year , people are like headless chickens or turkeys, so busy they forget to breathe. It´s important that you consider some of the following reasons why you may be glad you continued to breathe in and out..... in and out..

1. It´s only a few weeks to xmas . You may get lucky. The present you´ve dreamed about could be being packed right now, even as we speak!!!!!!

2 The office party soon to be upon you. Just think. The man of your dreams may stride across the room straight to you,touch your arm and look into your eyes as though you are the only woman in the room.

Breathe Sue. I´m getting serious. breathe.

You´ll be glad you are still breathing. Your bosoms will be heaving....

3 There´s an exquisite new perfume coming onto the market one week before xmas. If you stop breathing you´ll never know how fabulous you could have smelt.

Embalming smells just are no comparison.... Breathe, girl.!!!!

4 By breathing you are taking in oxygen and breathing out carbon-dioxide. Trees need that carbon-dioxide. or they´ll die.

If you stop breathing and others follow you it could snowball unti tlhe trees have too little carbon´dioxide to survive.

Do you really want to be responsible for the complete anihalation of the rain forests and the English Lake District? Very good reason for breathing, don´t you think? Save the rain forests.???

5 A minor matter but if the trees die through lack of carbon-dioxide, then that means they won´t be giving out oxygen..........duh! get it? No oxygen ..........no people. So now you´ve become also responsible for the death of the human race. Breathe!!!!! Will you?...

Can you remember the smell of the roses?.......Wake- up and smell the roses, please!!!!!

wake up and smell the roses please
wake up and smell the roses please
