Of Spiritual Minds and Physical Bodies

To All God's Children,


-->Then again, what about this spiritual side? Where does it go, or does it even exist? I think so. We have our minds, our bodies and a third factor that goes unseen – the soul. The mind is our consciousness and how we perceive life. Some have greater more perceptive minds then others, and some are constantly moving around in a subconscious state of perceptual blindness.
Our bodies are how we exist in the material sense of the world. We need our bodies to control our actions and have free will (or a lack thereof). The soul is an invisible (or at least to our naked eye) extension of ourselves. Perhaps it is possible to step outside the body as I’ve heard stories of blind people seeing color for the first time when they had a near death experience. Although it would appear to be impossible to escape our mind. Therefore when we die, we take our mind with us wherever we go.

The body goes back into the universe’s materials broken down into basic matter and sent to thrive in other beings like dirt, insects, plants and eventually back into animals. The mind will hopefully continue on with the soul. There’s too much evidence out there that a skeptic or atheist cannot account for that would suggest there is a life beyond our physical deaths. The human range of vision is too short to claim that things we cannot see cannot exist.
If anything, we should all stay hopeful that we do live beyond this point; a life after death may be a beautiful and wondrous existence full of knowledge and star travels – okay, so I’m putting my desires before reason. Think hard now, where were you before you were born? If you can answer that with confidence, give me a call we have a lot to talk about.
