Being and Breathing
After spending nearly every waking minute with Angel for
eight straight days, I knew that I had to tell her just one thing.
So late at night, just before she fell asleep, I whispered it in her
ear. She smiled – the kind of smile that makes me smile back –
and she said, “When I’m seventy-five and I think about my life
and what it was like to be young, I hope that I can remember
this very moment.”
A few seconds later, she closed her eyes and fell asleep. The
room was peaceful – almost silent. All I could hear was the soft
purr of her breathing. I stayed awake thinking about the time
we’d spent together and all the choices in our lives that made
this moment possible. And at some point, I realized that it
didn’t matter what we’d done or where we’d gone. Nor did the
future hold any significance.
All that mattered was the serenity of the moment.
Just being with her and breathing with her.
Guided Questions:
1. At what stage of development do you think the speaker are

in? Why?
2. Do you think the speaker is happy as he speaks about “Angel”
in the story? What development stage do you think he was

3. How will you explain these words stated by the speaker? ” I
realized that it didn’t matter what we’d done or where we’d
gone. Nor did the future hold any significance. All that
mattered was the serenity of the moment. Just being with her
and breathing with her.”
