Hey Emilie
Just beautiful questions, eh !!
I first realised that something bigger was in control when oxygen or electric shock couldnt revive a man whose heart stopped beating. Who keeps the heart beating ? There has to be some form of energy, which keeps the ticker going and no one in the world has been able to restart it once it really stops. Where is that energy coming from ? God knows lol
There is no harm in asking big questions but if you dont ask the right people, you will just keep getting confused as there are billion plus explanations out there. Hey, there are so many billion people on this planet and all have their own ways of explaining their theories. Which one is true ? God knows.
I will share my perspective, which I have done many times on this forum before.
Whether there is something bigger out there or not, I wont be able to convince you about it. You need to experience the miracle of life yourself and come to your own answer and stick with it. In order to prove or disprove something, you need to experience it first hand. You are not me and I am not you.
What is our purpose ? I feel it is to learn to love unconditionally and live in the moment. When someone asked a small kid, why do dogs leave the world so quickly compared to humans ? The kid answered, “the dogs learn how to love unconditionally quickly so their purpose is served and they move on to other things in other dimensions. Humans dont learn this easy so they keep repeating their lessons and get to live longer”. When I heard this, I was just flabbergasted. It is so true though. We can learn so much from our doggie friends about love and living in the present moment.
Do what your heart says. You will only do the best for yourself at the end of the day if you dont get stuck in the rut.
Hope this helps.
Blessings,
Jasmine
