Stay at Home or Go Home

A lot is going on even though most of the world is on lockdown due to the Coronavirus. This COVID-19 pandemic has required that we face our apparent mortality.

Eternity, they say, is in our hearts. We are both conscious and subconscious; agents and witnesses of a sliver of this era. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have dreams, time-travel in our minds, and use words like forever & infinity. If our weight remains the same before and after death, what part of us left the “building”? And where did it go? Our essence and spirit will never die. If one has faith in what is beyond, death just becomes the portal.

So while the world is being assailed by this Coronavirus, and there’s the debate about if we should save lives or the economy; and if we should stay home or go home (die), here are reasons why I’m not ready to completely die:

  • I am not a dove (Thanks, Itumi Maduagwu for your Noah’s ark analogy)
  • I am human—a speaking spirit, bodily-bound to the earth.
  • My essence/spirit needs this body prepared for me, and without my Earth suit, I’m donezo, expelled, transported.

Except you are a dove or a raven, be careful out there. I’m staying at home because I’m not ready to vacate the Earth permanently. I’m not scared of the unknown; I’ve got faith. I’m scared of dying before my assignment here is done. If I knew my end date, I would be writing about going home. 💫

Stay at home. Stay alive.
