Hello, I will consider you a friend, until you prove otherwise.
I am not sure how to start, so I will start with this:
I normally avoid mirrors, as much as humanly possible. I use the mirror when I must shave, that is about it. Today, I spent somewhere between 30 mins to an hour staring into my own eyes. I do not recognize the man looking back at me. If I was armed, I might have shot, I had to restrain myself from putting my fist through the imposter's face, mostly because I am all out of butterfly stitches. What do you make of that?
Love After Love
The time will come when, with elation
you will greet yourself arriving at your own door, in your own mirror
and each will smile at the other's welcome,
and say, sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart to itself,
to the stranger who has loved you
all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,
the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life.

Hello my dear brother or sister,
The music and the clip is beautiful. I cannot express what I felt listening it....
I already gave an answer to the question about music. Please find it. If you cannot find it, please tell me and I shall answer again.

Very interesting thread... When I think I have an understanding of "The True Almighty", my spirit seems to direct me with more questions. Always seeking, to grow closer, to gain more wisdom and knowledge. I have been fortunate throughout my life with visions and visitations from angels and our Lord.
No, I am not crazy. Nor do I preach to everyone whom they should serve. It is an individual journey. One in which we all must find the answers to Truth.
I fail miserably daily to be more like Christ. But I know.. He is with me on this journey, every second to help me finish this race that is set before us.
I have read many interesting books. Thanks to my husbands knowledge. Which I believe has lead me to a deeper walk with the Chosen One.
At some point in our lives we have all faced or will... seasons of hurt, pain, illness, the death of a loved one, trials and tribulation. That is life and apart of being among the living. And joy does come again in the morning.
My question...Are you a prophet? Do you study The Living Word?
Thanks

Good day Brother,
I have a potpourri of questions I'm seeking opinions on...
-We talked about hair length, but is there significance to one's eye color and hair color? I heard somewhere that people with lighter colored eyes (green,blue) and hair (blonde) are more spiritually evolved, needing of fewer lessons and are closer to the next 'spiritual step'. Not sure what I think about that. Any thoughts as to the relevance of that idea?
-Were humans somehow artificially created, as opposed to being created through the unfolding of evolution?
-Is the Earth a 'special' place in the universe? Are humans a 'special' species in the universe? Besides being special for just being, ya know...? If so, what specifically makes it unique?
-Are cats and dogs something more than just house pets? Are they spirits with a limited conscounsiness, like humans, so to speak?
-Regarding reincarnation, were we incarnated as earth, plants, animals, and humans? Any thoughts?
-Are you personally aware of future events? Care to share any thoughs that come to mind regarding the subject?
-What do you do for a living?
Thanks!

It might be said, my dear brother, that humans were partly artificially created. At least the bodies were, more than 100 000 years ago. They were created by combining bodies present on the Earth at that time with some "other" DNA..

The 3rd density conditions on this planet are quite unusual since there is a great potential for both negative and positive polarization, so you see quite a mixed society... You might say that Earth is one of the toughest schools in our Galaxy. Great interests are invested here, both positive and negative ones. Ask further if you would like more on this topic.

who are the positive and negative vested interests?
what are they aiming to achieve?
