Rion's Reflections

These Words from the Heart are a

Collection of Life Thoughts

and Healing Words

by " Rion " Sewell

" Hold tight to your dreams ..

for if they fly away, or get lost on

the winds,

a part of you that

should have been will disappear. "

May peace surround you

always!

" When you come to the edge of all the

light you possess,

and must take that step into the darkness of

the unknown,

believe one of two things will happen to

you;

there will be something solid for you to

stand on,

or, you will be taught to fly. "

Believe in yourself and have faith you will succeed.

Heaven

or Hell

As far as heaven and hell are concerned, I do not believe

heaven is an actual place with harps. Neither do I believe that hell comes

complete with a sharp horned devil and fire and brimstone. I believe we each

have our own heaven within ourselves and when we die our inner spirit stays in

that “heaven” while our body molders away.

What I wonder is if there a different plane of existence

that could be considered a resting place for the inner spirit residing inside

each of us? The bit of energy that makes us alive inside, the part of us that

determines who we are, that soul of being inside each of us

... our inner self .. where

does it go when we die?

Where do we go? Do we go to heaven or hell and exactly

what are heaven and hell? Heaven and hell to me are states of mind .. you can believe them to be

what ever you want them to be. Until someone can show me proof of otherwise, I

will believe the Christian version of heaven and hell to be figments of over

active imaginations of men trying to control the populace.

Angels .. yes .. I

do believe in them. Someone must be watching over us considering how many

stupid things we do and not die. The devil ?? no .. we create our own demons with

our own minds. Since no dead person has ever come back from either place with proof,

it may be some time before I know the truth.

I have no idea, and neither does anyone else, if there is

such a place as heaven. We can just hope that when our bodies wither, our life

essence continues. Being human, I have a hope when this physical body of mine

gives out that the soul inside of me .. my inner self .. my spirit .. will continue on. Hopefully it will enter another body or

rest in a plane of existence beyond our scope of understanding and not just

cease to exist. I believe that my soul is so full of love for people that there

is no way that I can use it all up in this lifetime. I have a hope that it will

continue giving out love long after my physical body has turned to dust.
