Spirits Living In A Material World...




In so many ways the world we see is the world we have created for ourselves from the scraps and pieces of shattered hopes and dreams which lay all around us.  Like a war zone, where people run scared trying to find shelter from the chaos of danger and death - we shape our idealistic worlds from the little things which once seemed to mean so much to us.  Emotional baggage we call it.  The fabric which colors our perceived "perfect" world.  In all the little things which we hold close to our hearts - we sense the longing, the desire to be free!  A little voice like our own - keeps calling our name!  It makes us get up in the morning - and try again.  It tells us to pick ourselves up and try again...

This world of ours made up of skin and bone - blood, sweat and tears - cannot fill the void we feel...  Spirits living in a material world!  For many of us this realization has been lost.  Buried in the dust of long lost visions which we once dreamed.  Gone with the innocence of childhood.  We wander through this haze we now call life.  The world of cold hard facts.  the world where warmth and love seem to have vanished into the science of living life in the fast lane.  It is a life, a world, made up of never ending whys...

Spirits living in a material world!  We know so much more than we know!  The conscious mind is absorbed in the critical functions of keeping us present in the here and now. But all knowledge and wisdom is stored in the sub-conscious mind.  No filters.  No restrictions.  Just pure information!  And it is this world of thought which holds such hope for us as humans.  Our past and present and future are all here being formed and saved. The meaningful array of knowledge we seek is here waiting...  Waiting for us to become aware.  Aware that we are more than skin and bone.  More than flesh and blood.  The sun will rise and the wind will blow... Yes! We are Spirits...living in a material world!
