Lots of early day thinking. After watching one of my favorite mediums on youtube, my mind is on wonder mode this morning. She talked about spiritual awakening vs. human awakening. I forget, sometimes, why I am here. I spend so much time living to die and not living. Does that make sense? I guess what I mean is that we spend so much time on how we will live in the afterlife that we forget what we should be doing in the here and now. Having the human experience in the moment we are living is so important. She mentioned that when we die, we will have that spiritual awakening. What? Whoa, brain spark ignited! Yes, makes perfect sense....at least in my mind. Then I started wondering if I would have regrets for not living the human part. I hate regret, it's an awful feeling. I believe most people live to die. It's really what we are taught. We are told that this life is all about the after life. This makes me think that we are missing the gift God gave us. We really are missing the experience here. Like most people, I think regret we would have is not attending church, not living the perfect life, walking the straight line every minute....that's not experiencing being human. We are made to be imperfect, IMHO. I fully believe that if you do your best to be a good person, do good things, treat all beings (human and non-human) well, be good the the beautiful earth that God gave us, you have nothing to worry about in the next life. Really, God gave us rules to follow, the 10 commandments are HUGE! Read them!! Ten simple rules...live by them!
Today, take a moment to feel the sun on your arms and face, the wind in your hair, or even the rain kiss your cheeks. Breath in and experience the moment you are living.
