The Boundless Spirit
Death does not come when the body is too exhausted to live. Death comes because the brilliance inside of us can only be contained for so long. We do not die. We pass on.
The vessel dies, but the Spirit lives on.
Our greatest human adventure is the evolution of consciousness. We are in this life to enlarge the soul, liberate the spirit, and light up the brain. The next greatest adventure is death. Death is the natural progression of the human spirit. Not the end, but a new beginning in a realm we cannot fathom.
The human body has limitations. The human spirit is boundless.
We fear death so profoundly, not because it means the end of our body, but because it means the end of our consciousness as we know it.
A couple of weeks ago, my father���s spirit passed on into its next adventure. A few days ago my granddaughter���s spirit entered a body that took its first breath and cried its first cry. She began her evolution of consciousness. Into her father���s hands, she felt her first touch, opened her eyes and saw her mother���s face.
When you have lost people like I lost my birth mom at a young age and you remember the whole process of losing her, you want to grab on to something that makes you whole.
My children and career have given me that sense of wholeness, and my husband compliments that. Watching the grandchildren enter this world, looking down at them looking up at me, gives me a sense of continuity that I do not believe I would have achieved had I decided to remain childless.
The God of our understanding has entrusted us to participate in the enlargement of her soul, liberation of her spirit, and the lighting up of her brain. For that and all things, I am grateful.
