Understanding Your Soul
In the world of spirituality, the belief is that we chose who we are before we came to be. We made the decision to come to Earth in physical form, we already made contracts prior to entering our physical body, choosing our parents, siblings, friends and all the life lessons that our soul needs to learn in our lifetime.There is something comforting in the belief that what is meant to be will be. We all have difficult times and issues to overcome, and each person has their own path and struggle. If we have already chosen these lessons to learn, grow, and evolve from, it means we are strong enough to overcome them.
Some may think it is unlikely we made these selections for ourselves. However, the soul works on a deeper level, requiring further understanding. It is the essence of who you are, your emotions, will, and mind. As well as the reminder of the mind, body, and soul connection.
Ask yourself: How do I really feel – how does my soul feel about this situation, this person, or this decision? Think and live consciously on a soul level. If it doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t. The world of spirit is there, you just have to make yourself aware of it.
My dear friend who has been living with stage IV cancer for seven years now tells me that there is much more to life. We are all just players on life’s stage. Each person has their own role, and it is about honoring our souls to recognize the big picture.
The source of life is involved in all our surroundings and experiences. What you may think is coincidence or accident ends up having such a big impact on our lives and changing the course of events. God, the Universe, a higher power, or whatever it is you may believe in is always there.
If someone mentions to me how lucky I am, I tell him or her that's not the case at all. I used to be an extremely negative person, but now have total faith in God in the Universe. When problems arise, as they do every day, I look up and say, “I know that you will lead me in the right direction.” I’m able to live my life in total faith that all things are meant to be as they are and everything will work itself out in the end.
Death is one of the ultimate fears people share, but we are able to live on Earth in our bodies, which are merely vessels for our spirits that will continue after our corporeal selves have long gone. While we face numerous difficulties on this planet, whether they are physical or mental, when we leave our bodies we are free from pain, flying happy through the Universe.
