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.
