Becoming Human
“We are NOT human beings having a spiritual experience; we ARE spiritual beings having a human experience.”
~Pierre Teilhard de Chardin
Read the quote above and allow it to be one of the most profound quotes in your daily lives. Allow it to help you understand the true meaning of life and why our soul has chose to be here. Yes, we chose to be here. We came here with a soul contract and we came here to become our truest most authentic self. Whether you choose to believe that is solely up to you. Once we create that belief system and hold on to it, our life becomes much more easier. I strongly believe the reason we chose to be here is to learn from our human experiences to help us evolve spiritually. With each experience we are learning and growing from what our soul knows from the lives before.
Allowing this to be our truth makes living a lot easier because it takes away the constant need to control everything in our lives. Which is very difficult to not want to do. Once we understand that there’s no such thing as disappointment within each of us we will move on from our past experiences to create new ones into the form of love. Love for ourselves and an even greater love for others. We cannot do that until we fix the relationship we have with ourselves first. Everything we do moving forward should evolve from this magical place that we as humans complicate so much.
I have found in recent years that the truth in life is that we truly are all spiritual beings trying our best to become human. Becoming human may sound so cliche. Once we are groomed into the aspects of humanity the spiritual being in us is taken over by our egos and how we behave is the reaction to what the human ego in us already knows. It can be very hard to overcome that aspect in which we all hold. Emotions take over and we are bombarded by society to come outside of our souls wish. That is when things get complicated and for many it becomes a daily struggle. The truth is, it doesn’t have to be. We just need to come within. It is within ourself where we will get all the answers that we need in life.
Our human experience holds the part of us where our emotions, perceptions, thoughts and other human interactions come into play. Whereas, our soul just wants us to love with all we have and be happy! We are bombarded with all these emotions and tend to get in the way of what our soul is trying to push us toward. It becomes a daily struggle. We must learn how to navigate being human. It has become my new mantra to life. After all, becoming human in a spiritual world is key to living life in existence. I don’t just want to “exist”. I want to live freely and discover every part of myself that makes me the human being I am.
May of 2018 was my turning point in life. I tragically lost my best friend the year before as he took his last breath in my arms and very shortly after that cancer had shown up for me. I felt ruined, defeated and lifeless. I truly believe I had these two profound experiences to help me grow the spiritual part of me that was lost for such a long time. It was up to me to pull myself out of the darkness in order to see the light on the other side. It takes experiences like this to help us “wake up”. It’s our spiritual being that needs to be woken up. We are all slowly awakening to the truest parts of us. We have the help of our universe that will keep pulling us toward that light as it will keep giving us experiences to help us learn how to do so. With each experience, whether it be good or not so good; these experiences are always showing up for a reason. There is never a life experience that is not worth living. If you ask me today, I am grateful for every single experience that had come my way. When the experiences are showing up for us it doesn’t always seem that way in the moment. We must navigate through our emotions and we must learn how to react.
Until next time…
Love & Light, Always!
