Spirits, Truth, and Senses

Just some ideas that have been wandering around in my head; thought I'd take a moment to get them out before they slip away.

Spirits.
How do we inherit some things that are just inherited talents, traits, and things that don't make sense to inherit from our genes?  Do we inherit spirits from our past and carry them forward?  Is this why it's so important to stay in touch, learn, and understand our roots, our past, our history?
I have been undecided on whether or not I feel spirits are "recycled" but I think there could be some truth to our ancestors' spirits propelling us forward.  Not that we re-use them, but they combine and move forward with us.

Knowing & Speaking Wisdom from our God.
Many times throughout the past people have claimed to have spoken with the voice of God.  Do I believe it's possible?  Well sure.  Why?  If God lives through everything else that lives, then naturally those with voices will speak the truth of God's words from time to time. 
Sometimes I think or feel something to be true with such certainty, without not necessarly always knowing why.  We call it instinct.  But, what gives us instinct?  ... there ya go.

Senses.
Sensing things is not some mysterious unnatural thing.  People sense things all the time that are out of the ordinary, yes, but they are totally natural.  Humans fantasize a lot of fantastical things with our imaginations, particularly when it's something we don't understand clearly.  But that which is here upon this earth is very natural, and very understandable, if not by everyone all the time.
How do you think those amazing cancer sensing dogs "sense" the cancer in people?  With their senses, of course.  Not with some mysterious power.  Granted, this power may seem mysterious to those who don't have or understand it.  But they use their sense of smell. 
I have been able to "sense" when someone has a sinus infection before.  How?  By smell.  Your air smells different.  Granted, most people won't pay attention to something like that, or really think about it if they did.  The amazing senses we have been given are everyday tools but also subconscious detection tools.  We just don't always pay full attention to them due to our busy days and lives and minds.  We must take time to clear our minds and focus in order to develop sharper senses.

Energy

Everything has the energy of life within it, from the air, to the plants, people, animals, and other living things, to the rocks and the things within the Earth as well.

How could you not believe that there are energies present in and resonating throughout everything in our world, when there is proof?

Quartz Crystal is a great example. Its properties enable it to provide accurate measurement of time in clocks, through its resonant frequency.

People who are able to perform dowsing (aka "water witching") of water, metals, ores, gemstones, etc. are another great example. They are in tune with these energies, either consciously or through having an open mind and allowing it to subconsciously happen.

Finding a way to tap into these energies... now that's a whole other thing.

Death and life after death

Is that what it comes down to? How we are with ourselves when we die, determines how we enter into death? Those who are at peace with themselves die at peace. Those who fear death and have conflict within themselves do not. They might see the Angel of Death but with a different facade: beautiful and shining, or dark and harsh.

I came across this little nugget while trying to find a search reference to the old phrase, pistol ball, such as "She's a real pistol ball." No one at work had ever heard it, but it's something my family might say. I on the other hand have never heard a phrase they use, to say that someone is a real pistol.

Yeah, what he said.

A random daily thought

Sometimes you just think you're observant. Pay attention to what you're attentive to and you just might discover a lot more you were missing.

Air Plants!

lol... I guess I must be a green witch... I went nuts today when someone helped me find the beloved air plants I have been looking for! I am thrilled to be able to buy some again. I am sure I could have looked harder and elsehwhere, but I searched and searched a couple of times and could never find them, until now.

Of Energy and Creation

Energy, or life spirit, whatever you want to call it, exists in everything that's alive. I've wondered before about how it got there. But.... I do not think it's put there. But rather, it's created there. Life generates it, and perpetuates it.

I don't know how this comes into association with a soul yet. But this feels like a major breakthrough, anyway. I guess I'd really have to understand what one is in order to fully understand that.


When we die, our "energy" is what stays here.
And, I suppose it's what binds our soul to our body while we are alive.

Where does our soul go?
What's in it?
Where did it come from?

The answers I seek won't be found from any book. The answers will teach me as I am ready to learn them. It may be that they're in a book, but I won't discover the truth in them from there. This journey is my own.

Energy Lives

If a spirit can residually remain behind and echo energy of its life afterwards, then why can't people who are still alive do the same? How could they not, rather?

And do some people detect this on a regular basis as telepathy, deja vu, and... (what's a word for when you can sense things that are happening to others... [I had a really short but really strong sense of it once today; was pretty random, too. But it could also have been premonition, though it didn't seem like it at the time.])?

Doesn't really explain premonition though.

I guess that as usual, with most everything in life, I am just coming to my own realizations of and explanations for what other people have already labeled and figured out in their own ways. I have to get to things on my own path to have a full, thorough and deeper understanding.

Another random thought that my brain wouldn't let me sleep over until it was written down. Bathtub epiphany. Good ole' communion with the water. Errr, yeah. I'm going to sleep now...
