My Spirituality In 10 Lines

Spiritual and instinctive are words that describe my feelings when
I first meet homosapiens who I have never met before.
Sometimes inner warmth I feel, my psyche is serenely calm.
Instinctively I know our souls have met in previous lives.

Spiritually I feel unnerved in the presence of a person
whom I know does not present a threat, but somehow
feel them mar my soul and slither inside my head
These humans my soul repels or they will wreak havoc 

Our spirits delineate lessons we’ve learnt living through each life 
Developing our souls we are striving towards our final pinnacle

Wise words, Ann. I know exactly what you mean about an inner sense telling you to avoid certain individuals you have just met. It's an instinct that grows over time and I keep trying to catch up with my peers in this regard. Good luck in Lu Loo's contest!
