Poetry: The door of death is never closed

John had lived a wild life,
and when it came time for him
to meet death, its doors swung open,
and engulfed him with itself.
His wildness had not lost its wildness.
Life is constructed not to last,
so that each part of that life,
can live in differing ways at different times,
and enter different places,
through that door that is death.
Death is not forever, but fleeting,
existing for a brief moment in time,
where you go from one life form to another,
and death is the switch,
that makes that switch possible for you.
All who die are not made equal, by death.
Who you are goes with you to the other side.
Growing into your higher self never ends.
Nobody is equal, as all are differently made.
God equates equality to deadness.
Even God's love is different for each of us.
Love tailors itself to meet our own needs.
Death is not the great leveller, it's thought to be.
Within God, are infinite levels, none the same.
We move ourselves through God, all differently so.

Death is never what it seems to be. Death is a wormhole in God.

They called it planned obsolescence when objects are not built to last. i do often wonder if that is gods plan.

Thanks, Scott.
I have heard the Jewish philosophy that our bodies are expendable, as it's only the hardware for our souls, and when the body no longer serves, the soul, lets it die, and so we simply move our program, which is our soul, into some other hardware then too.
They say that the body is given certain tools to help in the advancement of the soul. It is all for the benefit of the soul.
A clever mind is given so that certain learnings can be brought about in the soul. Other facets of the physical body are given for similar reasons.
Christianity does not believe in reincarnation, and I was surprised to see that Judaism does believe in it.
A soul, approaching perfection, might be given a body with a low intellect, so that it can learn the last bit of its learning in a unique way, rather than too quickly at the end of their line.
A soul, still with a lot to learn, might be given a high intellect, and other gifts too, so that its learning can be accelerated a bit for it, that is, if it takes this chance.
All things thereby balance out in the wash.

@innertalks we are in the chrysalis form as humans. Perhaps when we finally are ready, God empowers us as butterflies!

@DocAndersen Yes, perhaps God is the ultimate butterfly collector, and so we all earn our wings, at some stage.
