"Do You Know Who You Are?"

          Who are you, do you know, do you really know? Do others know who you are, such as friends and family members, or the people you work with? Well, here are some answers:
  • You are a complex living being, that has been given dominion over every other living thing upon the earth.
  • You are a collage of past and present events that have and have yet to happen.  Oh, and one more thing, 
  • You are a vehicle, constantly transporting precious cargo, and that cargo, eventually has to be delivered one day to it's final destination. 
     
     You're probably wondering what this precious cargo could be. Well I'll tell you, it's your "Soul", which was assigned to you since the very beginning of time. Now, here's where it gets tricky. There are two possible drop off points. The route that you take, as the driver of this vehicle, pretty much determines the destination of this precious cargo. During the voyage, you are also the tour guide, any information instilled into or acts committed while in possession of this cargo, you, will be held accountable for.                              
     
     Okay, now let's see if we can get you to understand the importance of this cargo, that you can't see, well yes, this cargo is invisible, and that's what makes us forget about its existence, but don't let that downplay it's importance, because you actually need it more than it needs you. You see, the soul lives on without the body, but the body, absent of it's soul, is lifeless. Now, who's soul is more important or who has the more precious cargo? The answer to that question is, none of us, no matter who you are or who you aren't. For example: we are material beings, so when you compare people, such as a homeless person to a millionaire, most people would say that they are extreme opposite in terms of their impact on society or whom you'd rather sit and have lunch with or invite to the family reunion. But, when it comes to souls, let's say the millionaire is a Louis Vuitton wallet and the homeless man is a beat up paper bag, now let's put a one hundred dollar bill in both, wait 5 min., now take them out. Which hundred dollar bill would be more easily given away to someone who desperately wants it? Answer: They're both the same, the packaging means absolutely nothing, only to a man and his ignorance of who or what we really are; only to a man that has been enslaved by his own mind and foolish beliefs of what it's all really about. 


         We live our lives on borrowed time, with borrowed knowledge, in borrowed bodies, and no one can tell us, not even our creator, that our way isn't the right way. Well, WAKE UP, you've authored and directed that movie long enough, because one day your movie is going to end, and you, just like everyone else, will have to walk out of the theater and into what's real. Yes, your movie was a flop. It was probably over budgeted, with bad lighting, dragging on a shallow plot and poor story line, and we all knew the ending from the very beginning, "you die."
        
     Imagine that "life" is like the "Indianapolis 500" the world famous car race. Well there is a pre-race called the qualifying race. This race determines where your line up position in the real race will be. Once that's determined, everyone gets into position and races around 200 laps totaling 500 hundred miles taking 4 hours to complete, which would seem like an eternity to me, being that car racing is not an interest of mine. So, right now, in examining who you are, do you feel like you are bringing your "A" game to the table in this qualifying race? There is more at stake for you than you may be able to understand. Losing is not an option that you want to accept as an option. Although there will be some losers, your job is to make it priority to not be one of them. Now, there will however, be a conciliation prize, to those who lose, but definitely not anything you could run home and show to mom though. No my friend, nothing about the conciliation prize is five star, NOTHING, and unlike the luxury of "free will" that we have here, where we can send things back, get refunds, demand to speak with management, or just get up and leave, those are unfortunately not options for the losers of this race. It's not included in the package deal. This ain't the "Indianapolis 500 car race", no, you are part of something much bigger, the "Human Race". 
     
     Consider this as a pit stop and the advice being given here as mandatory maintenance, to help you win this race. Better yet, consider this blog to be a travel agency, and me as an attractive, kind, helpful travel agent, with winter fresh breath, that pulls you to the side and says "hey, this place that you could be headed to, has very bad reviews, you may want to look into the other option as your permanent getaway spot." A thank you would be nice, but a tip would be better (I'm smiling right now with my hand extended out) lol, just kidding. But seriously, if you are reading this, it's because you were meant to. This may be knowledge for you, or that precious cargo that you have thrown in the back seat, or at this point, probably tied up and gagged in the trunk of your vehicle. How would you feel if that were you, gagged, with no say so as to what you were exposed to or where or what you're dragged into? Well, that's where you're lost my friend, because you and that precious cargo which you've neglected for so long, are one in the same, two peas in a pod, friends till the end Andy, "hidey ho". That's right, "SURPRISE", you and that cargo are joined at the hip, and are inseparable in life, separated only by death, kinda like the wedding vows when they say, "As long as you both shall live, and until death do you part", but, without the choice of divorce. That's not an option in this case. Thank God for that, otherwise, your soul would have probably turned in the paperwork a long time ago, leaving you for broke!
       

     Now, let us discuss for a moment, motivational tactics, to keep you focused when you lose track of what you've read in this blog.  Try staring at something without blinking, while holding a freshly cut onion to your face, or try bending your finger back to the point of excruciating pain, without stopping, or take a lighter and hold it up to the palm of your hand and ignite it, and hold it there for as long as you can. The point is, there is an endless list of self inflicting pain that you could google on your computer, but in the end, no matter which one you foolishly pick to inflict on yourself, the point still remains that it is by your "free will" to start and stop each of these lil insane experiments, as long as you are still joined at the hip by that cargo that I told you about early on in this blog. 

     Here's the bummer. Remember the big race? No, not the Indy...the human one. Well the losers of this race are sent to a place where those experiments that I mentioned googling, are simultaneously ran on every individual there 24/7/365 x eternity. Now, to add insult to injury, without that Devine marriage of you and your soul, your privilege of "free will" is null and void, so there's nothing or no one to stop the torturing, of what's left behind by you, that poor soul that went disregarded and unguarded by you for so long. Oh what a bad host you've been! You have betrayed who you really are, "A Living Soul".

     You know, Satan hates you, because of the soul that God gave us. That's part of what got him kicked out of Heaven, his jealousy of us and his own self worship and gratification, but you need not concern yourself with that. It is already irreversibly done and nothing that you do here can change that. Besides, Satan is bad news. Why would you extend a lending hand to something that would take pleasure in ripping it off? Our soul is the very part that separates us and places us above all other things on the earth and is the very thing that lives on after the journey. Take care of it as if it were your only child. With that being said, would you run into a burning building with your child and leave them in there to be burned alive? Well, your soul is depending on you to not allow that to happen, because hell is a burning building, with no maximum occupancy count. In other words, there's always room for one more, and hell is as real as the air you're breathing and the quickening of your heart as you read these words. Right now, hell is invisible to you, like your soul, but once again, once separated from the soul, hell will become very visible and very real. It reminds me of that old classic song,"These are a few of my favorite things", the part where hell is never mentioned in that list.

     But all jokes aside, I use my bizarre sarcasm to keep you entertained while you read this message, because this is a serious matter. Hell is not a ski resort that you visit and tweet about or leave a review on your wall on your facebook page or write a blog or forum about so people can read about your personal experience. No, hell is a one time all expense paid deal where all communication with the outside world is strictly prohibited, NO EXCEPTIONS (you'll be dead). Your time to tweet, text, email, or Facebook would be now, send this message or a link to this blog to the people in your circle, your facebook and twitter friends etc. Give them the gift of learning who they are, just as you have, and who knows...in the process they just might win the race. Now, in the words of Jerry Springer, "Until next time, take care of yourselves and each other".
      

     Oh, I almost forgot, references. There are scriptures in the Bible to support and back up what I've written in this blog, but to get you in practice of what you've just read, it may be best that you go ahead and read the whole book, so I won't give you exact scriptures to turn to. Hey, trust me on this one, that's how I started reading my Bible; looking for scriptures to confirm things I'd heard people said were in there. Plus, it's food for your soul, which may be starving right now, so give it some nourishment and make it strong, you'll need each other to win the race. To God be the glory.
