To live again

 To live again

I died again. How did this happen you ask? If I knew I would tell you. The only thing I know is that I don’t really die. How does it work again? I am born, through accident, illness or design I die.

The only thing I’ve truly learned is the lengths people would go to live again. So many souls have begged me to help them remain; but I can’t help them I can only help myself live again.

“How does it work again?”

Scientists that claim when you die 21 grams leave the body that is your soul, that soul is what I’ve been taking to other lives. You’d think that I wouldn’t remember any of the lives, but I do. In fact, I also remember the time before I entered their lives and yet these souls have abandoned the ship.

So, here I am again, looking for a empty shell to take on a new life and I ask yet again why me? What is it I have to learn that my soul goes on and on? But the answer never comes.

I enter the life of the newborn baby; I see the joy of the parents. I hear their thanksgiving prayers and I know why I was reborn. These are good people who have suffered greatly and wanted only one thing a living child. I will be the child they so desired. I will do good by them, for I know now this was always my destiny.
