Recycling of Souls

by Everlasting   Mar 18, 2016


While I sleep, on a cozy dream,
the Earth is a garbage can
where souls are tossed for recycling.
But then, as I awake,
the earth is indeed like a recycle bin,
where people are often classified
Into different religious groups,
as a means to have their soul "recycled."

Think about it, there are
Muslism, Christians, Catholics, Mormons,
Methodist, and many more...

Each religion can either claim
that they are like a recycle bin
for souls to be recycled
into the original material that they used to be...

Let me say, for the sake of just using an analogy,
That Christians or Catholics...
that they could say (not that they say)
That a soul is like a bottle of wine
that when the wine or the blood of Christ
has been emptied out of this bottle,
Through this church, the bottled,
(your soul) can be recycled!
to be filled with the wine,
with the blood of Christ
for your soul to live a happier life.

I could almost hear them chant:

"This is the recycle bin, this group, right here!
Come bring your soul, that you may recycle it, here with us!"

---

That is of course, if your soul is like a bottle of wine,
if it's like a plastic, or any other material,
people will find no option but to go find the adequate recycle bin
So that their soul can be recycled appropriately.

---

And then, we find people converting,
from religion to religion, until they find
the right recycle bin.
Until they find what material
their soul really is

---

But as I awake more and more into this reality
where I live
I came to think of the soul
Not as a material that must be recycled
(It recycles for sure, or at least I would like to believe so)
But it isn't a material per se
the soul is more like water, a substance
that cleans on its own
by being in constant motion.

    Hello,

    You are posting like tennis ball server machine on rapid fire.

    Seriously, this is well thoughtout and presented in such a way that it will appeal to all relgions, no matter the composition of their soul. The conclusion though was like a punch line, a moment of clarity. A soul that cleans itself. Like solar panels, we see the light then keep on recycling this - eternally.

    Well done,

    Michael
