Hi guys,Before I tell you my dream, let me tell you something else first. Every freakin' Sunday, I'm literally smacked out of bed, by my mother, to go to oh so fun Church! She is deeply Catholic and I can't really argue with her, you know! We even get this statue of Mary Mother of Jesus, every 5 months to pray, let me tell you it's not my favorite thing to do, but I do it.
Anyway, during Church I don't know what made me think about it, but I was thinking about how funerals are so dumb. I was thinking that if people just learned more, funerals would seize, or altleast crying with hopelessnes, you know. But, this quickly left my mind, and I was left not paying much attention to what was going on.
After we left, I felt extremely tired and without regard went to bed and fell quickly asleep. Then this was my dream, I dreamt that I was in a strange hallway, and all of my family members were there. We were going to a funeral, but don't worry I was not dead, nor was the funeral for me. But it was for some unknowing person, I guess the person isn't the importance. Anyway we were just sitting there and I distincly remember it was not a coffin but a cremation. And we began to have a party during the ceremony, everybody was getting ready to eat, and I was sitting with my cousins. Even a very old aquaintence, that I haven't spoken to for years and years, was there talking to me. I remember being angry at her, and don't know why. Then she was just showing me her party dress.
Anyway all I can remember, was that I was on a mad search to find the ashes that got lost. Then I started to feel that this person was still around in Spirit. People were also dancing for some reason. Thats all I can remember! Anyway, after the dream I felt strange, because afterward I was seriously pondering the notion of immortality, including today. In the beginning I did not want to consider immortality being an option for me, becuase I was afraid, and of course the circumstances that go with it. But then I realized the pieces all fit, and that I really believe it's possible, just not for me. But being the age that I am (16) and knowing as much as I do. Perhaps this is the path for me. I don't know...I don't believe I'm ready, or to even practice! One of the things that seriously concerns me, is being a vegetarian, not that I will have a problem, but my whole family will have problem with it. The lonely part also concerns me! Okay, this is eery, as I was writing this post, behind me was my television showing Boston Public, and they were giving a funeral.  IP: Logged |

Well you need to cross one bridge at a time.The thing with being vegetarian shouldnt be too much of a problem,have you ever considered that it's your choice what you eat and if you decide not to eat meat they'll have to put up with it,you could easily just get your mum to leave the meat off the plate and eat potatoes and vegetables.If thats not possible then one final option is that one day you'll be doing your own meals anyway and you can choose what you want,however it's a shame that you cant start now.
I can remember when I gave up meat at age seventeen,I got this surge of energy in my body.Probably I hadn't given it up for long enough for any cellular change,although there may of been a kind of cleansing.I think a lot of it had been because I'd made a choice,a promise,that I didnt agree with the killing of animals,and it made me feel good about myself.
Also taking the step of being a vegetarian will be good for your mind and good exercise for being an immortal-I'll tell you how:It makes you question rules of society-after being a vegetarian for a while for example,you'll walk into a sandwich shop and see the pieces of meat set out behind the glass,you'll(hopefully)immediately think,no,this is wrong,you'll start to think outside what you've so far been demonstrated to be normal.
I think that becoming a vegetarian is the first step you can take to becoming spiritually evolved,once your family have taken on the idea they'll probably get used to it and forget about it.IP: Logged |
