The Beginning

 I never thought it that important to know how the world was created, but who  the Creator was seems to be more important. We hear of the big bang theories, the bible story, the mystical stories of indian and aboriginal cultures. We even hear ancient alien theories, and in some beliefs we do not really exist at all  , yet I am sitting here writing this. The other day I experimented and tried to think of my earliest thought , maybe somewhere trapped in my mind was all the answers.
 I soared past the many jobs and relationships, past high school, past elementary school, even got before kindergarten. Saw myself sitting in front of a black and white TV watching the mickey mouse club. Remember my first nightmare of a parrot, and snuggling between my parents. I do not recall being two or even three years old ever. I remember some old songs that were played on the radio, my last and earliest memory was sitting on my grandfathers lap. I cannot even remember what he looked liked but felt safe.
 Imagine if we could go back into infancy , wondering if we even had a worry other than a soiled diaper or a taste for milk. I think we can get caught up in our beginnings the same as we can get caught up in the worlds beginning, what is important is today. We should always remember not our beginnings but what happens in between that is important, and mainly where we are today. I remember the story of Lots wife and how she turned into a pillar of salt , looking back. What the hindu religion says is we are born into bliss, and ultimately through salvation can to return to bliss. In christianity we are born into sin ultimately we can through salvation can defeat sin and go to heavenly bliss.
 Why be born at all if just to be polluted by sin , or have to find our way back to bliss. I guess that is the big question - my thinking is to become one with the Creator. We are a living soul , the physical body is always going through changes then eventually , the shell becomes immaterial. We spend a lifetime getting hairdos and putting on makeup. We pluck unwanted hairs from our cavities then it becomes a useless , wrinkly - painful shell and we just want a new body. If it were possible we would go to the store and purchase a new one like a suit.
 The only hope is that someday if we live a holy life , we will get our wish and that new body. Or there is another way, we can shift our importance to our eternal soul and forget the body. Why not have an out of body experience , shift all your energy to being one with God , ask him to fill you with the Holy Spirit. This can be the most wonderful experience of your life, and it is free. How much are you spending on cosmetics , medication, cigarettes or booze. Imagine for free you can be experiencing what it is like not to controlled by your body needs, just shift your priorities. Ask God- send your Holy Spirit , I want to live a holy life, send the comforter Jesus promised.
 This will be the Beginning.
