" THE SOUL " MY PHOTO, ©

May be an image of rose and nature

I wonder, Is the soul as happy when she leaves the eternal to be enclosed in the temporal, As she is when she starts her trip to return to her celestial home? I wonder, Whether the enlighted soul is as worried when she enters the ignorant body, As she is when she leaves it and has to account for the success or failure of Her mission? I wonder, Whether the soul is incarnated out of Free Will or is she " obliged " to go Through such an adventure called life? Finally, I wonder, Whether one day, we would find answers to these pertinent questions, either In the physical or in the metaphysical realm? Till then, my dearest friends, Let our faith lead the way up to our last breath with confidence and trust to Our Lord's divine plan! © Demetrios Trifiatis 14 December 2022

These are some deep, interesting questions, my friend, Demetrios. Reading this deep and thought-provoking poetry was a pleasure for me. Our soul's principal role is to assist us to become more fully conscious of who we are and to steer our development while we're still physically present on this planet. There are many mysteries to be unraveled in our life, but the most significant is our connection to the divine. Well done and this is a Fave.

As you say, my dearest friend, Lasaad: " There are many mysteries to be unraveled in our life,..." I agree! However, the Greek word "Mystery" implies that nothing is clear but is covered, is hidden behind a vail of the fog of interpretations, therefore, we can never declare something to be obvious but we have the right to believe that something is so. Having said that I am still wondering, although my Faith may think otherwise. Thank you for the Fave. God bless you!

Thoughts to ponder Demetrios but all will be revealed when we pass from this life to the next Tom

Well, this is one of my questions, my dearest friend, Tom. Yes, I, too, am inclined to believe the answers would be given after our crossing to the realm of Metaphysics but this is a matter of faith! Be blessed!
