what lurks

i'm pretty sure if this happens i wouldn't be resisting it. except if the face on the other side has horns, friggin' no way! :-D

in any case, depending on what good or bad we did in our lifetime, our souls are recycled. consider:

"How is it that you say all are equal, yet the obvious contradictions smack us in the face: inequalities in virtues, temperances, finances, rights, abilities and talents, intelligence, mathematical aptitude, ad infinitum?"

The answer was a metaphor. "It is as if a large diamond were to be found inside each person. Picture a diamond a foot long. The diamond has a thousand facets, but the facets are covered with dirt and tar. It is the job of the soul to clean each facet until the surface is brilliant and can reflect a rainbow of colors.

"Now, some have cleaned many facets and gleam brightly. Others have only managed to clean a few; they do not sparkle so. Yet, underneath the dirt, each person possesses within his or her breast a brilliant diamond with a thousand gleaming facets. The diamond is perfect, not one flaw. The only differences among people are the number of facets-cleaned. But each diamond is the same, and each is perfect.

"When all the facets are cleaned and shining forth in a spectrum of lights, the diamond returns to the pure energy that it was originally. The lights remain. It is as if the process that goes into making the diamond is reversed, all that pressure released. The pure energy exists in the rainbow of lights, and the lights possess consciousness and knowledge."

- "Many Lives, Many Masters" by Dr. Brian I. Weiss

Very creative! The interpretation of the capture could go either way depending on how you view it, whether you see all the positive energy or whether you only take in the negative. I really enjoy your narrative

@amandal - thank you, kiddo. thank you for the fav, too. hahaha! i didn't even know this made the popular page. wonder when and probably for a minute or two. the themes are getting ridiculously difficult these days!
May 29th, 2014  
@summerfield Yeah, most I skip. too crazy, weird, no ideas, etc. Yeah for pop page. I'm up there so rarely so it's always a treat. And then when I did the click nude one it was for nothing. They never mentioned anything about the theme as far as I know. Shoulda kept my clothes on;-). I'll admit, it was kinda cool to have my ass trend all day. Ha!
