The Family of Life | Journeys Into Light

JANU: For this morning’s journey may we explore and appreciate the reality of the Family of Life. So many have recounted their near-death experiences as a wonderful light of love and the presence of so many loved ones, wishing to remain but being encouraged to return to incarnate life. Awakening to and embracing the Family of Life is rich indeed.

One may consider their associations come to a halt when incarnated. They do not. The relationships continue, as with any true family. One can awaken into this reality and begin to appreciate and re-experience those relationships. Being conscious as part of a family enhances one’s sense of purpose and worth, survival, continuation, and destiny. The nature of any family is the source of it, which is always present at the root of its reality. So it is in so-called spirit life, our brother, only the sense of oneness, bonding, is deeper.

“How does one then,” you ask, “support and continue the journey of family?” By being all you can be, being generous with your life, nurturing each other, and sharing experiences and understandings. This we do, our brother, with these journeys. For you think that only incarnate people benefit from this activity? It is far larger than that and the legacy of this activity continues on, for it is recorded in life for posterity.

“What of the pioneers in life, who seem to travel a singular path of their own making and choosing? Where is their family?” you ask. Their family is still with them, whether they are conscious of it or not. The many miracles along the way of survival and discovery, and the joy of it, are always shared. And the journeys alone, so to speak, have beginning and end, but they end in a new reality, enhanced, at times, by the singular journey. So judge not the seeming ‘loner’ in life. Their journey performs miracles of its own, for their passion is discovery, of exploration, new encounters, new understandings, and the depth of their being comes forth and, as a spark of life, all of life is lifted.

You asked this morning if there is a price for genius. There is, our brother, but the price varies greatly and not always understood. Be a loving member of the family of your life, as you observe others struggling with theirs. Namaste, our brother.
