Am I just flesh and bones?

Do you feel there is more to you than flesh and bones?

Well yes actually. I am more than my body. I have thoughts, feelings and dreams. I love my parents, my partner and my children even though they annoy me sometimes. Surely all of this is part of me as well as my body.

Your thoughts, feelings and dreams are all energy as much as your body. Have you ever felt your mother’s disapproval without her even speaking a word?

Well of course I have, especially when I was growing up.

You are an energy being and can sense and even read other people’s energy.

You are energy and according to the laws of physics, energy cannot be destroyed.

So what does that say about ‘Who I am?

Energy transforms itself when other forces are applied to it. For example; an acorn falls on the ground. A root grows into the earth and draws water and nutrients to enable a tree to grow. The acorn transforms this food into it’s first leaf which then adds energy to the plant from the rays of the sun. So the acorn grows into a strong tree with thick boughs and lots of leaves. Eventually the tree grows old and dies. The boughs fall to the grown but they retain the energy captured in the tree during it’s lifetime. Over millions of years the wood is compressed into coal. When you light the coal, it gives off heat, releasing the energy the tree captured over a million years ago. Energy transforms over time but is not destroyed.

Am I an acorn too?

You have chosen to bring your energy into a body for a limited space of time to experience a life. You are your body but you are also your soul, that inner part of you that experiences thoughts, feelings and love. Through your life you experience humanity from the perspective you have chosen by being born into this particular life. When you die you withdraw your energy from this body taking with you the memories and experience you have gained from that life.

Why would I do that?

In experiencing a life you are given the opportunity to learn and improve your behaviour, your reaction to events or how other people treat you. I like to call them life lessons. They are things such as the value of listening, defining your personal boundaries and holding them, being non-judgemental. As you learn these skills, they become your personal wisdom. We each have learnt a different composite of life lessons which is what makes each person unique.

That implies we bring into this life our personal bag of skills which then implies we have lived a life before.

You are right. You have lived a life, many lives before. You have learnt some life lessons and you bring those skills in your soul as you choose to place your energy again in another body. Like the acorn you transform your energy over many lifetimes to gain your personal wisdom from the life lessons you have learnt.

Why would I want to keep returning to another life?

Our aim is to improve how we interact with one another. To learn to make our lives full of kindness and love rather than fear and dread. Overtime you will come to the realisation of your energy re-cycling through different lives in order to learn.

We aren’t doing a very good job collectively. The world is full of dreadful acts and fear.

Humanity is in a pivotal point moment but you can make a difference.

I cannot influence world events and national actions. I am just a single person of flesh and bones with a little bit of feelings.

It may surprise you but you can make a significant difference by learning to live your life from values of kindness and honesty in all you do and say. I am not saying it is easy but like all skills the more you practise it each day, the easier it becomes.

It takes just 25% of the populations to change social behaviour. With a world population of 7.8 billion, it will take just 1.95 billion to change our world from one of being hyped on fear to one of enjoying kindness. This is a revolution that will and is starting from the bottom up. As acceptable social behaviour changes so will the actions of our leaders and nations.

So if I practise kindness and honesty, I can really make the world a better place for my children and grandchildren?

Not only your children and grandchildren but also for yourself when you decide to live another life. Is there anymore motivation you need?
