In Search of the Lost Soul part 2
And now, let's see what we can do with the answers, right?
The soul is that spiritual part that most living beings have, whether they are animals, birds, or humans. (I will not comment further, as I know many will have other questions, but humans always have questions...)
The soul has the same shape as the body that carries it, only in a spiritual form.
The soul, as mentioned above, is a spiritual matter that exists in a different, yet undiscovered, form and frequency by humans, which is why its existence cannot be proven.
We cannot see it because... and here there are several reasons:
Firstly, although the human eye has the ability to see souls, the human brain has not been trained to do so.
Secondly, humans are not allowed by God (the one in whom many no longer believe but who is as real as you, me, and anyone else).
Thirdly, we could see the soul if we attempted to do so in a spiritual manner rather than a physical one (for this, observe a terminally ill person before their last moments, observe their reactions, and you will see the soul leaving them, not with your eyes but with your own soul, with the eyes of your mind, as some would say).
We can touch a soul, but again, not in the way we expect... physically, but spiritually. Look for a person when they are at their lowest point in life, speak to them from the soul (the one you believe neither you nor they have), help them cheer up, help them overcome, and you will see that although they had a sad face before, at the end of the conversation, their face will be brighter, and their eyes, which initially seemed dark, will now emit a ray of light in the darkness... that is proof that you have touched a soul, not with your body as many expect, but with your soul. Therefore, we want to know these things, but we ask the wrong questions. On the other hand, we may rely too much on the material world and too little on the spiritual one, yet we still expect answers regarding the spiritual world. The problem is that you cannot:
Ask the wrong questions and expect correct answers.
Solve spiritual problems based on solutions and laws from the material world.
I am sure that many will continue to have questions and arguments of all kinds, but I have said it in the past, and I will say it again: those who do not wish to believe will not believe, regardless of the arguments presented to them. However, those who desire to believe will search and find the necessary arguments and reasons to believe.
In conclusion, I would like to advise you to keep your soul intact and pure because that is the true 'self' within each and every one of us. The soul will continue to live even when the body can no longer do so. And if you abandon it now, or its goodness... you are giving up on yourself and the goodness that resides within you.
Thank you for your attention and time, and may you have a beautiful life."

Who, I Wonder
Who, I wonder, in this world,
Could ever say and unfold,
Why you created me,
Or how I found you to be.
When I'm with you, it's true,
You make me feel brand new,
You saw within me,
What no one else could see.
Now I know that generosity,
Can put an end to hostility,
And I would chain eternity,
To keep my kindness faithfully.
In the service of good, I'd engage,
If I were to work in your presence,
And anything I would ever ask,
I would give to you with love and my life.
Perhaps many people don't know,
But without you, I'm hollow,
I'm like a dry desert,
Lifeless and thirsty, I revert.
And when I've been at my hardest,
I always found you, regardless,
You were wherever I've been,
You didn't discard me like waste within.
That's why I want to proclaim,
That you are my God, in name,
Not only in times of bliss,
But also in times of abyss.

Before Life part 2
I started to fear more and more, not knowing if I would reach my destination unharmed. But then the angel told me, "Don't be afraid, follow my voice, and they won't harm you. I will continue to speak to you so that you can guide yourself by my voice." I shouted, "But why don't you stay with me?" The angel replied, "It is because of your fear. It is better this way, but keep going, follow my voice. I am here, you're doing great, you're almost there."
During this time, the angel had moved so far away that I couldn't even see a trace of his light anymore. I was in total darkness, surrounded by those creatures that could attack me and tear my soul into pieces at any moment. However, somehow they seemed to know that the angel was waiting for me somewhere, and although I stumbled blindly, fearing to step on one of the creatures or something else, I managed to move forward with small and heavy steps, probably because the creatures made way for me, allowing me to advance.
A few moments later, I began to glimpse a small light in the distance, which slowly became clearer as we advanced. I realized it was the light of my angel, just before I shouted, "I don't want it anymore, I've changed my mind, I don't want to be born, I want to go back." But as soon as I shouted that, I realized that the light I saw was my angel in the distance, who immediately responded, "It's too late to turn back. We have come this far, God will not accept your return, and there will be consequences for both you and me."
I managed to reach my angel, who now stood still and opened another door that led to a street in a city unknown to me but would soon become my birthplace. I arrived on the streets of that city, and the angel said, "We have arrived. It won't be long before you come to life, but don't be afraid. I will always be there for you until the last day of your life." Then his voice began to fade slowly, and I slipped into a deep sleep. Some time later, my birth took place, marking the first of a series of events in my life.

Before Life part 1
I remember even now, after many years of life, how it all began. How my story started with a dark journey that was meant to frighten me, even though I would be safe. I don't know exactly where I came from, but I remember following a path, guided by the angel who was meant to bring me into this world. I followed with confidence, impatience, and curiosity about what my life would be like.
Shortly after our journey on the road, we arrived near a well, where I followed my angel who opened a door on one of the walls, at the foot of a bridge. We entered together through that door, which magically transported us to a kind of purgatory. It was a dark place where the angel began to shine brightly and create visibility around us. I couldn't take more than five steps before I looked around and noticed that the place was inhabited by strange creatures with heads like large turtles and bodies like a mix between tigers and some long-extinct dinosaur. The creatures had dark blue skin and large spines on their backs, pointing forward as if they were meant to protect their heads and harm anyone who came into contact with them. Their paws were like those of lizards with big, black claws. The creatures were sent there due to their wickedness and dreadful deeds, their banishment serving as a punishment from God upon them. They were destined to spend an eternity in the pitch-black void of that dark place.
The creatures seemed to be in a state of hibernation, but shortly after we arrived, while the angel walked ahead of me and I tried to keep up with him, the creatures seemed to come back to life, emitting strange sounds that gradually filled me with fear. There were more of them than I could ever count, and the angel told me not to be afraid because as long as I was with him, the creatures wouldn't touch me. We moved among them, and they slightly moved aside, as if trying to create a path for us to pass, but as soon as we passed, they closed in behind us, erasing the path they had created.
I saw them watching us, and the angel continued to encourage me and tell me not to be afraid, but my soul couldn't help but grow more and more afraid. Then, sensing the fear that overwhelmed me, the angel made my legs feel heavier. The angel began to move away slowly, taking big steps while I felt how my fear reduced my steps and made them heavier. As the angel moved away, he took with him the light created by his presence, leaving me at the mercy of the darkness that slowly began to surround me, just like those creatures.

Heraclitus.
The chain of wedlock is so heavy that it takes two to carry it - and sometimes three.
Heraclitus.
Heraclitus was a Greek philosopher who is remembered for his cosmology, in which fire forms the basic material principle of an orderly universe.
We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin.
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, (born May 1, 1881, Sarcenat, France—died April 10, 1955, New York City, New York, U.S.), French philosopher and paleontologist known for his theory that man is evolving, mentally and socially, toward a final spiritual unity.
i love this... .
He famously wrote
(Teilhard de Chardin, 1959b, 219) that evolution is a “general condition to which all other theories, all hypotheses, all systems must bow and which they must satisfy henceforward if they are to be thinkable and true.
i read this somewhere...
Translation-The soul is atomic in size and can be perceived by perfect intelligence. This atomic soul is floating in the five kinds of air (pra?a, apana, vyana, samana and udana), is situated within the heart, and spreads its influence all over the body of the embodied living entities. When the soul is purified from the contamination of the five kinds of material air, its spiritual influence is exhibited.
Furthermore it is also mentioned in scriptures about the size of soul.

Door To The Other side
There is a door in the space around you
It is a door from which you cannot hide
It's a door that you surely must go through
When it is your turn for the other side
Energy that drives a living body
Will depart from it when that body dies
And on the other side it will become free
What happens then one can only surmise
No matter what one believes takes place then
The fact remains that no one knows for sure
All will experience the answer when
We must exit through that very same door
No one knows the mystery beyond that door
Perhaps it shall be so forever more
It is a door from which you cannot hide
It's a door that you surely must go through
When it is your turn for the other side

No matter what one believes takes place then
The fact remains that no one knows for sure

No one knows the mystery beyond that door

Guardian Angels
Each and every one of us have a Guardian Angel that God has assigned to us to look out for us. I remember watching an episode of Montel Williams years ago when he had a woman named Sylvia Browne on his show. I recall her saying that to learn the name of your Guardian Angel, you must clear your mind, and then the first name that pops into your head, that is your Guardian Angel's name.
I'm not sure how many of you believe in them, but I would like to think most if not all do on here.
I do know mine, and her name, do you know yours?

Jesus Take the Wheel
I’ve battled and fought myself for years on the subject of am I ever going to meet someone? Just recently I did. He ended up being just like my ex boyfriend. I confronted him about it. He’s not one that likes confrontation. He punishes me by not talking to me for days on end.
So I did something different this time. I prayed. *Gasp*
And I blew the dust off the Word and read it.
God answered me in the most loving and non judgmental and direct way I could ever possibly hope for. It’s not working with this man because you’re doing it YOUR way again.
I wasn’t surprised by those words. I was encouraged. I have left God out of my life on numerous occasions. So this is my fault? You want me to APOLOGIZE?! Yep.
I took a very DEEP breath that would reach the other side of earth…that would suck up all the hot air of the Sahara and let it out. Okay Lord. I take full responsibility. His next words to me was you need to follow Me. Words He’s been telling me this whole time regarding a spouse. This time He was direct because I was in a crying rage and wanted answers. He answered me lovingly and with open arms.
So now what?
I’m supposed to see him Friday to work for him. He hired me to help him out but I haven’t heard from him all week. I told his other worker I’m just going to show up at his door and see what happens but he may fire me. What I told him was hurtful and rude. What God wanted me to know though was that this had nothing to do with him. This was about my DISOBEDIENCE.
So now I wait depending on God to salvage this relationship. I still want to be his friend but I’m not sure he wants to be mine now.
Guess I’ll just have to wait and see and trust God.
