September 2019
I was thinking about evolution and change and transformation. Everything changes. The whole
universe is set up in a cyclical pattern, and yet despite the patterns, there is adaptation,
evolution and growth. Then I thought about what we habitually think about death and what
happens next.
For myself, at least, I have been putting a period at the end of ‘what’s next’. Even though I have
the belief that my life will continue, albeit in a different form, I have come to realize that my
idea of that different form was still quite static. This is what I was thinking about: that the idea
of a static after-this-physical-life isn’t at all what the Universe/Life/Energy is all about.
Whether it is physical, emotional, intellectual or spiritual life, there is still change, there is still
growth, there is still evolution. I don’t have a clue what that will look like. I’m still not sold on
the idea of reincarnation—coming back in another physical form. But I for sure know it will not
be the end and that I will get to sit back on my laurels.
Anyone else have any comments or ponderings on the subject?
