I can’t help beleaving that we all have a higher-self, an Id if you will. There is some part of us that lives outside of time, guiding us through all the lives we have. It’s the intuition that we have, the little voice in our heads, the prophetic dreams that give insight to our daily lives.
This being, the essence of our soul, has been with us since we first took a breath of air, wether that was 200 lives ago, or the day we were born in the here and now if this is our first life. This aspect of all we are has lived all our lives, seen the past, present, and future as if looking at a multi-faceted gem, holding it, pondering on it, and working it into a precious jewel.
What could we learn if we were to speak, what fears would be put to rest, what dreams would become reality, what truths would we have to face? For those reasons alone, I am terrified at the prospect but can’t help wondering what it would be like.
To learn what my true self is, who I really am, how many times I have had to learn the same lessons….so much of this we will never know.
Then the question of soul-mates; are they really a single soul split into two or more physical bodies? Is the higher-self an individual formed from that separation? Is the higher-self the complete entity made up of all those individuals?
Then I realize that these things may not be meant for us two know while we are bound to physical bodies. Could the individual and physical intellect comprehend what the higher-self has known since its beginning? If we could communicate and we could comprehend even a tenth of what it knows, what would we do with it, how would we use it, how could we help others with what we have learned?
These are the questions I ask in the dark of night when the sancitity of sleep is beyond my reach.
