The Evolved Spirit

I was listening to a show that said

we are evolved spirits in a human body

which started me thinking

if this is true

then why didn't I choose a Hot Mama body

hee hee

So here's my story

I have lived many lives throughout history

have been known by many names

Each life experience has increased my knowledge

Every joy and sorrow becoming like medals

on a decorated soldiers lapel

Each time I shed my physical body

All doubts, fears, worries fall away

As I rejoin Source and experience a rush of recognition that infuses my spirit

I Am Strength, Light and Love

When I am Home I share my experiences with my fellow spirit beings

The Great Spirit listens to our stories and experiences with a smirk

 as a parent listens to excited children

As I listen to others' stories

I make mental notes of things I might be interested in experiencing

As one might store information for a family vacation spot

Until the day that the thirst for knowledge overcomes me

and I request that Spirit grant me life in physical form yet again

I select my physical body as one might choose a car

paying close attention to what purpose it will serve

because ultimately it is just a means of transportation

just like a person is not their car

I am not my physical 'shell'

~ ~ ~

That's what I think it would be like

And isn't it grand to think it could be true

The knowledge that I am greater than what I see in the mirror

Strength, pride

the knowing that I cannot fail

Whoa it's mind blowing

Somehow I doubt this thought process would go over well

with the nuns at school who couldn't tell me who created God

And the Hot Mama body

well I suppose it would be a distraction

because somehow I think when I rejoin those spirits

by the glistening pool in the sky

I'm going to have alot of stories to share from this lifetime

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

I think these flowers do a good job representing my life phases

My first 40 years I was asleep

Afraid to open up to the world

I lived in fear, anger, doubt

 I now begin to open myself to others

Revealing that there really is more to me

That I possess beauty and strength

(without Hot Mama distractions)

 One day this is where I will be

Fully aware of who I am

acknowledging that I am an evolved spirit in a human body

and that recognition will be the key

that unlocks my full strength

that wows the world around me

So I'm a dreamer

Can you tell?
