Guest guest Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 I had an AP experience a couple of years ago that has changed my whole way of looking at physical life. I no longer see physical life as some kind of learning experience, nor as some kind of big mistake that took place that we are trying to find our way back out of. I see it as a gift to be treasured, every minute of it, the good and the bad. Something we have chosen for ourselves to experience. Not saying I understand much about it all, but tonight at the hospital, in the mist of trouble even, my heart was so full of love to over flowing it felt like it was going to burst and rapture me right out of here. Life is such a mystery and even in duality one can experience joy unspeakable and peace that one cannot understand. I don't know what this physical life is all about, but I like to think of it as a project we have not completed in " time " yet. We have not reach day seven, " God eternal rest " for this earthly kingdom. We are still working out the kinks, but we will make it, going by what the bible says, anyways. There will be a day when it will be completed and we are all co-creators in this project. It will be a grand thing and all that we have been through will be worth it all. Just like all the pain one goes through to have a baby, once the baby gets here, the pain was all worth it. At least in most cases, LOL! Hehe! I am so full of energy, I cannot sleep. I try to close my eyes to sleep and I keep seeing my grandkids, the way they where at the hospital last night. Just that one little moment tonight at the hospital, was worth a million years of pain and suffering. My heart is overflowing!
