Transcending

I did more reading about philosophy.  I have had this feeling all my life of being a soul trapped within a physical body.  I always thought it was just me. However, what I have been reading lately has comforted me immensely because I now know that I am not the only one who has ever had these thoughts.  More importantly, I had read a new perspective on the whole idea.  

I always considered myself trapped within the confines of my body.  Yet, I never considered that if my spirit is eternal and timeless, then why should it be confined by the limits of space?  Why am I looking at my spirit as if it were a human body?   

My spirit transcends time and space.  It’s the part of me that connects to God and is capable of miracles.  My spirit allows me to feel anything that I can imagine and to shape my own reality.   I am not confined by my body even now.  The Universality that I talk about that connects all of us isn’t something I will become connected to when I die, I am already a part of it.  The life that connects me to all who have life, who are alive, or who will ever live, is already something that I have.  I don’t need to die or do anything to be a part of that. 

So, I guess what I am saying is essentially, my journey has already begun. I am already part of this amazing universe.  I am already a part of God’s love and I have always been a part of something much bigger than this tiny body that holds my physical and mental self.   

My faith saved me.  May God’s peace reside in all of our hearts.
