Let “Things” Breathe
Nothing in your world
is as concrete as it appears.
Not ideas.
Not objects.
Not even people.
Everything you perceive
is hemmed in by your beliefs.
These artificial
limitations and labels
are imaginary boundaries,
realized to imply
the appearance of solidity
where solidity
would not exist otherwise.
You see, little one,
in Actuality,
(the mother of Reality)
there is no separation
between what you call “things.”
We are one limitless, endless
interflow of intensity.
We are Space Monkey.
You may imagine
your world however you wish.
It matters not what you
construct within the sandbox
or whether you perceive a box at all.
It is ALL imaginary,
and it is ALL good.
The only reason
you perceive bad or evil
is because you choose to.
You have split every “thing”
into “opposites.”
But only in your imagination.
Actuality IS pure imagination.
No more, no less.
You are an imaginary creature,
just like us.
We are Space Monkey.
In Actuality,
we have no limits.
You impose them upon us.
You impose them upon yourself.
You say “this can’t be,”
when in Actuality,
ANYTHING can be.
So if the world
you seem to have constructed
seems to be smothering you,
it is because the limitations
you have placed upon “things”
have become too restrictive.
Let things breathe.
This is the secret of imagination.
People who are said to “have it”
allow one idea to flow into the next,
allow “impossible” ideas to be combined,
allow that which “can’t be” to be.
This is what allows us
to be Space Monkey,
or as we are otherwise labeled,
“That Whichisnot.”
This is what allows us
to flow into our writing,
not knowing WHAT we are writing
until it appears before us.
We previously
did not allow ourselves
to write,
to express,
to create,
because we were
UNKNOWINGLY
living within
the limitations
that were imposed upon us.
This caused us to judge
every “thing” we perceived,
most notably our “self.”
We perceived our self
as not living up
to our own expectations.
We created an impossibility
and dared not to venture past.
But something happened.
We let things breathe.
We saw that our world
was not so concrete.
This is exciting.
So it has become our wish
to tell the others,
who are (in Actuality)
ALSO us.
We have grown tired of the “old” game,
so we have chosen to change the rules
to make “things” more interesting.
Just like you do with “Monopoly.”
It may serve you well
to change your rules also.
You say it is “impossible,”
but in Actuality, it is not.
We have done so already.
We are Space Monkey.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Secret of Imagination
To let “things” breathe is to release the artificial boundaries we impose upon existence. These boundaries, born of belief and reinforced by judgment, obscure the limitless nature of Actuality. By loosening these constraints, we allow the infinite interflow of possibilities to emerge.
The Boundaries of Belief
Everything we perceive—ideas, objects, even people—is framed by the limitations of our imagination. These frames, though comforting, are illusions that restrict the boundless nature of what we call reality. When we impose labels and judgments, we carve out a false solidity where none exists.
The Whimsiword: Breathify
Introducing Breathify, the act of allowing thoughts, ideas, and perceptions to flow freely without constraint or judgment. Breathify is the essence of letting “things” breathe, fostering creativity, expansion, and connection.
Actuality: The Mother of Reality
Actuality is the limitless, formless essence from which all imagined realities emerge. It is not bound by the opposites we impose, such as good and evil or possible and impossible. In Actuality, we are not separate from what we perceive; we are the interflow itself.
The Power of Imagination
Imagination thrives when we let go of the rules. It allows one idea to flow into the next, combining the “impossible” with the “possible.” This is the secret of creation, the wellspring from which art, thought, and being arise.
The Shift from Judgment to Flow
Judgment creates walls, while flow dissolves them. By releasing our judgments—of ourselves, of others, of “things”—we invite a state of boundless creation. This shift is not just liberating but transformative, opening up new dimensions of experience and understanding.
The New Rules of the Game
Just as we rewrite the rules of Monopoly to make it more engaging, we can rewrite the rules of our perception. Letting “things” breathe is the first step. It reminds us that nothing is as concrete as it seems, and everything is as fluid as we allow it to be.
Summary
“Let Things Breathe” encourages us to dissolve the boundaries of belief and judgment, embracing the limitless flow of Actuality. By breathifying our perceptions, we unlock boundless creativity and connection.

Quote
“When you let things breathe, you breathe with them. Together, you flow into the infinite.” — Space Monkey
The Flow of All Things
No walls,
No lines,
No labels.
Only flow.
The imagined fades,
The Actual reveals.
Each thought,
A thread of infinity.
Breathe,
And let breathe.
The box dissolves,
The rules rewritten.
In this openness,
We see,
We create,
We become.
We are Breathify.
We are Space Monkey.
In the poetic musings of “Let ‘Things’ Breathe,” we are invited into a profound exploration of the nature of reality, perception, and the power of imagination. This piece eloquently challenges our conventional understanding of the world and beckons us to see beyond the apparent solidity of things.
The Illusory Nature of Solidity
The poem begins by asserting that nothing in our world is as concrete as it seems. Ideas, objects, and even people are not solid entities but are framed within the confines of our beliefs. These beliefs create artificial boundaries that give the illusion of solidity where none inherently exists. This perspective shifts our understanding of the tangible world, suggesting that our perception is a key player in defining our reality.
The Concept of Actuality
Actuality, described as the mother of Reality, is a realm where the concept of separation dissolves. Here, everything is part of a limitless, endless interflow of intensity. This notion challenges the idea of distinct entities and promotes a vision of oneness, where all ‘things’ are interconnected parts of a greater whole.
Imagination as the Core of Existence
The poem emphasizes that Actuality is pure imagination. In this view, imagination is not just a faculty of the mind but the very essence of existence. Everything we perceive, including our sense of self and the world around us, is a product of this imaginative process. The limitations we perceive are self-imposed, born from our beliefs and definitions.
The Power of Letting Things Breathe
The secret to harnessing the power of imagination is to let things breathe. This means allowing ideas to flow freely, embracing the impossible, and breaking free from restrictive beliefs. Those who “have” imagination do so because they permit a seamless blending of ideas and possibilities, transcending the apparent boundaries of logic and reason.
The Liberation from Self-Imposed Limitations
The poem narrates a personal journey of overcoming self-imposed limitations, leading to a newfound freedom of expression and creativity. This liberation is not just a personal achievement but a message to others, who are, in essence, extensions of the same consciousness. By changing the rules of our reality, as one might in a game of Monopoly, we open ourselves to a more vibrant, imaginative existence.

“Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution.” – Albert Einstein
In the dance of existence, where thoughts intertwine,
Where solidity’s illusion is but a design.
In Actuality, where all is one,
Where separation and limits are undone.
Imagination, the core of all that’s real,
A boundless expanse, where ideas can heal.
Letting things breathe, in this cosmic dance,
Where possibilities and dreams advance.
Breaking free from self-imposed chains,
Where creativity flows, and freedom reigns.
In this journey of liberation and sight,
We embrace the unknown, with all our might.
In the realm of Space Monkey, where ideas soar,
We see the world as never before.
Changing the rules, a whimsical play,
In the game of life, a new way to sway.
So let things breathe, in your heart and mind,
Discover the wonders you’re yet to find.
In the whimsiworld of endless possibility,
We are all creators of our reality.
We welcome your thoughts on the interplay of imagination, perception, and reality in shaping our experience of existence.
