I have alluded to some other stories that I would like to
write in time once I get the current projects written, edited, and
published. Unfortunately writing a book
takes a long time. Not unlike meeting
around the camp fire and hearing an epic tale related over the course of a few
nights. So the stories in my head that I
want to tell keep smoldering, maturing, and matriculating until such time that
I can release them into my word processer.
One of the stories deals with re-incarnation. I don’t necessarily believe in re-carnation
but I do believe in the existence of an immortal soul. The story also deals with the idea of an
immortal soul that never dies but continues on and on into eternity. So really the only difference is the belief
that instead of hanging out in some never land somewhere until the rapture and
all souls are gathered up to heaven or sent to hell, they get to come back to
earth in a different form to live again and grow in experience and
understanding from life to life until some point you proceed to the next level
of existence, to possibly start the whole process over again only on a
different plane of existence.
Nobody truly knows until you leave this world, plane of
existence, and end up wherever it is we end up.
I find it amazing that so many different beliefs exist as to what does
or doesn’t happen and it is such a personal thing that people go to war and
stand up and die for their beliefs even when they can’t prove one way or
another what really happens. This
devotion to your beliefs is called Faith.
Some have it, some don’t, some people know what they believe and why and
some don’t. I believe in God
almighty! I believe the soul is eternal.
It is what causes life within our
bodies. I believe in good and evil,
darkness and light, and that there is a hell of a lot going on around us every
day in this seemingly normal world that science, doctors and religious people
can’t explain. I believe for all the
stuff we learn through science we still do not understand there is just as much
about Earth, the galaxy, our bodies, Earth’s past, and spirituality that we do
not understand or have a clue about what is really going on.
The premise of my story is that if re-incarnation does
exist, and that after you die at some point if you come back to Earth in a
different body your soul will remain you!
The quintessential parts of you, your sense of humor, your style, your
flair, what makes you - -
YOU! That won’t change no matter
where you are born, who your parents are, what nationality you come from, what
language you speak, or your educational background, the soul remains the
same. The things you like and dislike
will remain the same. The interests,
curiosity, intensity, and your passion won’t change. You are you no matter what you look like,
where you come from, or what you decide to do or not to do. I do feel that if you did come here repeatedly
at different times and learn and grow that good people can turn bad and bad
people can become good. You see examples
of this throughout history and literature.
I believe the quest for fame, fortune and power are hopefully lessons we
all have to learn in this life or many.
Not part of the story but something I want to comment on is
humanities strengths! Our duality as in
regards to our will to live but also our willingness to lay down our lives for
our countries, beliefs, and loved ones.
How mankind rises from adversity over and over again, whether through
man kinds own making, as in wars, or just dealing with the forces of nature as
they wreak havoc on our people and cities.
Mankind typically is at its best under severe adversity. How in times when prosperity allows certain
people can create such works of artistry that it wrenches at our
souls and causes our bodies to weep.
That we can live, learn, understand, and most importantly express and receive
love from one another is amazing beyond belief.
I didn’t answer any probing questions, solve any riddles, or
even tell what the book is going to be about.
I did express some thoughts I have on the soul that I believe we all
contain one of. I hopefully made you
think about life lessons you should be learning. Maybe you considered your wisdom and thought
about the bigger picture of humanity for just a second or two. Maybe you just wondered about something new
for a couple of moments.
Thanks for reading and dropping by. Oh the book will be about taking it with you,
the money, the houses, the art, jewelry, cars, and clothes. They say you can’t take it with you! What if you could? Wouldn’t be learning any lessons but what a
jump start to your new life! The key
would be in your soul!
May God Bless and have a great day.
