  1. to think, to breathe, to remember
    to live again
    to die once more
    to wish, to hope, to dream,
    to be, at last,
    still

  2. To stop the process of something. Pausing a video game or tv show on dvr. Or in the old days when we paused vcrs, and tape players. Now everything is mp3. A point in life where nothing is happening everything is just normal.

  3. to stop what your doing. example if sex is noticeably bad in the first six seconds you can PAUSE and say it didnt count :) you can also pause a song to do a task like brush your teeth or answer a phone call. you can pause a movie to wash your face or use the bathroom

  5. So much is in a pause. The world could hang in the balance during the pause of a doctor’s delivering diagonsis. Life changing news could be waiting on the other side of a pause. A pause can change the meaning of an entire conversation. Pauses are always pregant with possibility and meaning.

  6. Don’t pause to think about it – you only have one minute to say everything you ever anted to. Tell your parents you love them and tell your friends how much they mean to you – your sister, you best friend – help her get though her life, but how can you, with only one minute to spare? Don’t pause, don
    t think about what you are going to do, just do it, because you will never have another chance – this is it, this is final. You’re done with, you’re absolutely done.

    One pause. Just to look at the words.

  7. I pause to listen to the rain drops hitting the tin roof of the barn. The pattern grows stronger, and I feel content in the noise. Soothed, paused, listening, waiting, enjoying.

  8. One momet to stop, one moment to think, one moment to let life just pass me by. Pause.
    Stop the video, stop that DVD, stop that noisem stop this world. Pause. Let me lie, let me be. Let this life of mine just pass one. Pause.

  9. I like to wear clothes when I go to work. If I go naked, I am cold all day and no one takes me seriously. In addition, if I don’t wear clothes to work, everyone knows when I am having a “fat” day.

  10. Don’t go. Stop a minute.

  11. she stopped and stared. It was as if she could move nothing and yet her mind churned on and on. What if the ocean were to stop like her? What would that mean? I think the fishes would die and it would mean the moon had stopped moving and the earth no longer moved around the sun.

  12. To stop for a while. A little break from what you’re doing. To then resume to your work later. Waiting for a while.

  13. To stop for a while. A little break from what you’re doing. To then resume to your work later. Waiting for a while.

  14. The feeling of guilt overwhelms me. But my fevered desire demands that I not take pause.

    Katie
  15. She began throwing pots on her sixty-fourth birthday. Crack a plate? Throw a pot. Late for work? Throw a pot. Burn your finger? Throw a pot. Cookie sheets work too. Anything that clatters. Anna stopped yelling in to the kitchen to ask her menopausal mother what had happened. She could guess, recite past happenings, and correlate the pot-throwing with a hot flash or emotional spell earlier in the day.

  16. its only one quick moment, a simple time to think about the past or the present, or maybe what will happen in the next moment,the next pause, the next breath when you want to simply let your mind relax and your brain take over. pause and dream about the future. pause and let your mind overcome your brain.

  17. The writer stopped to put a comma so in his head he came to a pause. While thinking up his enxt thought he hesitated to come to a conclusion. While concluding his breath became louder. He cuold hear his breath, and he had an idea. It was brilliant.

  18. I sometimes have to stop and think. This is called a pause. A pause is like a short period in which time stops and you can focus in on one specific thing. I don’t really understand it or want to. I just enjoy it.

    A pause can be awkward or dramatic as well, and it often adds to the excitement of a conversation and enhances the relationships we have. I would have to say that a pause is the best thing ever invented.

  19. stop, settle, hault, comma, slighty,

  20. stop doing something… is like a pause. like you “pause a movie”!

  21. He hesitated. There was a thirty-second pause during which she simply stared at him. Why wasn’t he answering? She gestured at him as if to say, Well, get on with it. Finally he opened his mouth and replied, “Yes, I slept with her.”

  22. Time is ending, my pace is quickening. I keep wondering which word will flow through my thoughts into this message. I found these words on accident – the same with you. And I’m sorry to say by so soon–

    Bye.
    [PAUSE].

  27. Pause? Stop in your tracks and look at your paws. Are they dirty? When was the last time you washed them? Am I asking too many questions? No? Good, because your paws are truly filthy. Wash them, please.

  28. I usually pause to think about what I have to say, but then I miss the point completely because I start wondering what your eyes are watching and what you’re thinking and I’m wondering what was I suppose to reply to again? So I make up some fancy bullshit that I don’t know, and you believe me, then we’re all cool and the heat has died down, and it happens all over again.

  29. pause your breathing…and think for a bit. pause your hearing and listen for a bit. pause your movement and live within the space and time given to you by this pause in time, of course.

  30. Pausing. That certainly gave me pause. For a moment I thought about writing something stupid like “(pause)” and ending it at that, but that would have been completely inane. I hope no one else did that. No offense to you if you did, I’m sure you’re actually a completely original and interesting person. Also, no one ever does what they should on this site and just writes… everything is so thought out. Out of time.

  31. Unpause! Stop thinking about stopping, cease the day!

  32. After a brief pause, I begin to write.

  33. The tape continues to roll. There is static coming from the one speaker on the deck, reels pulling slowly. They have nothing better to do, at least until the batteries die.

  34. i wish i could put life on pause from time to time. Life seems to move to quickly for me to enjoy it. but pausing is just as impossible as going back.

    Charlene
  35. I stop to think
    It may not seem like long
    I hesitate and yet you see
    that I have lost my thought
    I paused for just a second
    and now I do not know what
    was coming next
    I had it all in my head but that
    itty bitty little pause
    confused me
    I was not certain what to say
    because of that little hesitate

  36. It is the bane of thinking men. Stop and look around is always the temptation, but a pause is a hesitation. it is a sign that the thinker has run out of options and can no longer look forward. Fill the pauses in your life with activity, save for the times when you’re too stunned to move.

  37. i had to pause whilst I took it all in

  38. pause. take a breath. don’t even think about it, just smell the air and know you’re in the most beautiful place on earth. That’s right, I’m talking about the pig farm.

    You know how people say a smell can become so familiar that you don’t even notice it anymore? Not true. I can smell that stench from the second I arrive to the second I leave. And got I wish I couldn’t.

  39. Pause, you stop. You can “pause” television. You can “pause” music. You can stop your life with pause. PAUSE PAUSE PAUSE. Pausing is an amazing advention. You can pause something and come back to it later. Which is great. You can do anything well paused.

  40. Pause…the act of stopping whatever it is you are doing. It can be anything. If you are walking and stop moving, you are pausing. If you’re letting a CD play and hit the play button again (in some players), you are pausing it. It can be done on VCRs and DVD players as well. Virtually anything can be paused.
