We are Born...

We are born into life on earth with almost total amnesia as to who and what we are as spirits.  Add to that we are born into basically animal bodies.   It amazing that we are able to make any progress in our physical lives on earth let alone spiritual progress.  Some people make very little progress.  Did not Jesus say, ‘the poor will always be with you.”?  To even start pulling yourself up begin to learn Compassion.  Together compassion and love with intent can pull you up along with the ones who receive the benefits of your compassion.   The compassion can take the shape even of a simple smile.    Amazing how much a simple smile can do to a person in pain. 

Spirit is our True Nature....

Have you ever noticed that organized religion never mentions where we came from?   I believe they teach that we are eternal souls or at least that we have eternal souls and eternal means always and forever so why is where we came from never addressed?  One of the reasons that being on earth can be so difficult is because we are so used to having the freedom of being a spirit.  Being born with a body of flesh and forgetting who and what we really are is a shock to the system.   And this amnesia of Home happens every time we incarnate.   No matter how many times we have incarnated as human we have been spirit longer, forever.   Spirit is our true nature and always will be.
