What woman doesn't love spa day. Got my hair done, got my nails done.... feels soooo good. Came back home to have a nice cup of tea and a croissant. Then I took a nap in my recliner while watching you tube videos on ghosts and soul families.
Soul families..... This is a subject that I just recently found out about and I am now fascinated by the concept. Actually, I love the concept.
I have always always always felt that this life was just a moment in time. I knew that there was something else out there. Where is out there? I don't know for sure. But another dimension of what we are living right now. I am not sure our human minds can conceive of what is another dimension. We are on this plane...... how can we KNOW what another plane is?
Going through my life, I have felt people have passed through and given me what I needed at the time. Needed a friend, needed a confidant, needed to grow as a person, someone seemed to fit the bill at the time. People who pointed me in a good direction, people who showed me of a direction that I do not wish to emulate.
One girl I knew growing up, had a difficult life. Her parents were not nice, physically and emotionally abusive, she (like us all) was awkward and not socially maturing. I knew her most of my life, but being a kid, you don't realized the depth of life. As we grew - and moved to different areas - then ended up being neighbors and going to the same high school, my close friend and I drew her into our group of friends.
It was not easy, she was hard to be with sometimes. Hindsight I now realized why, but at the time, she was just a difficult person. But we included her in most things through the years. We all graduated high school and went our own ways.
Many years later we reconnected through facebook. Seemed as if her difficult life continued. Married young, abusive husband, health issues. It was sad to see these hard patterns follow her.
She wrote to me one time on FB. I didn't realize she was very ill and end of life. she was not even 40 yet. She wrote to me that her fondest, happiest memories were of the time that we all hung out together in high school. She thanks me for being so kind to her and giving her a chance to be friends. She passed about a year later.
That struck a chord in me. I realized at the time, and it is still with me today...... Each interaction you have with someone, sometimes small, sometimes bigger than you realize, has an effect on someone else.
I try to make my interactions with people positive because I realize that we all affect each other in ways we may never realize.
Were we a soul family in another dimension? Were we supposed to connect at that time? These are the things I think of sometimes.
Now, the concept of a soul family is in my brain and I automatically thing, how can I make this into a story. And as I am writing this, a great idea just came to me! Oh boy.... I like it and I haven't read anything like this before......
and just like that..... a series is born......... over and over again.
Have to go write in my diary book so I don't forget the concept I want to write about.....
How do your ideas for stories come to you?
