Breathe!

Sean's "wrasslin'" coach told the team that when they get fatigued, they should stand up tall, put their hands on their hips and breathe. The natural tendency is to bend over at the waist (we've all seen basketball players do that toward the end of a grueling game!) but the coach says if you are bent over, staring at your feet, you can't get as much good air into your lungs.
So if, as we journey toward Bethlehem, you get tired and weary - stand up! Put your hands on your hips, tilt your head up to heaven and breathe deeply. There. Breathe. It's a prayer.
