There are so many opinions. The challenge is sifting through the mindless prattle to find opinions that carry weight and offer value. Hopefully I always leave you with something to think about. Something that gets your mind going and your heart feeling.

Transition


“Aging” has been on my mind quite a lot lately. Not so much the inevitability and inconvenience of it as the pure wonder and curiosity of it.

Physically we all grow older. But that does not mean we must grow old mentally. Our Spirit… our very life force… is ageless and eternal. It is the essence of who we are and what we become. It does not “age”, but grows in experience and wisdom if we desire and pursue that course.

Life and death are a natural result of choices and circumstances. It happens to us all. But he essence of who we are and allow ourselves to become is eternal. The essence of our “being” lives on beyond this sphere of mortality.

When you pass on from this earthly existence you are not assimilated into some ethereal collective of grand intelligence called “God”. You will still be you. You will still be yourself, able to think and reason, hope and love. Still completely recognizable as you. You will have a perfect memory of mortality and your life before mortality.

You will know what you must do next.

Death is not the end. It is merely a transition… a “rebirth”… into a new and exciting life!!
