re-reading my past, and deep thought

[greywings]

Today I found the journal I wrote in for a few months while I was in college, and read the less-than-twenty entries in it. Gods I sounded young. And when I remember what was actually going on in my life then, and look at what I wrote about it, what I wanted to look back at in the future and believe... wow. Was I leaving that stuff out on purpose

I think that's just the kind of reminder I need sometimes.

I think it's good to think. What if the point of the journey is that it allows to experience that which we could not fully understand as spirits. In our mortal bodies we can enjoy the moment, something ephemeral just like us, in a way that spirits can't. Also, the lows of our mortal lives may just give us a greater appreciation of a spiritual existence.
