The Two Souls Rewrite
A soul makes its way to heaven and meets a new soul going to earth, and helps it move along, and later meets the same soul in heaven, and they chat about life.
The Two Souls
A spirit was traveling heaven-bound. He followed other souls and saw new spirits going along a separate part of the path.
"My, what miraculous things they will do when they’re in existence!" Old talking to himself.
He continued when he discovered a lonely spirit that seemed hesitant compared to the others wanting to get there quicker.
Then Old from the wall. "Greetings young one, why are you so afraid to be born?" Old speaking boldly.
Surprised, the other spirit glanced up, "I’m scared. It's intimidating and I don’t know what could happen to me." the spirit said.
Old peered at the spirit "It’ll take time to learn things. While you’re alive, you will experience wondrous wonders." Old said
"Oh… Okay." The soul said, and he went along, the angel came to Old and thanked him.
"Sometimes one is reluctant to go into reality." said the Angle to Old. "No trouble. One just needed words of encouragement to get moving." Old said.
They waved to each other as they walked. It wasn’t long before Old was in the huge waiting room for spirits with angels guiding them around.
Answering questions at one of heaven’s service counters. Old was in the waiting section and waited sitting with a numbered stub the help counter cherub gave him.
They filled the space with others with tickets in hand.
A number on the screen in a corner, the chime toned, the one called, and a spirit strode to the awaiting angel by the entrance.
Only a dozen were left when it began. Another soul sat by old. Afterward, there was something about the person that nagged at him.
He recalled everyone in his past life, but none fit the one who remained by him and that’s when Old spoke. "Have I seen you somewhere?".
"I couldn’t say that I have till now." replied the soul "I haven’t met many since I arrived here."
"Same here." the other remarked.
A moment later, old stated again. "I have seen a soul that was werry to move into the world."
"I hope that little one enjoyed a wonderful life on earth." On hearing Old, the other stared at him, and he remembered Old.
"So it was you?" Old Soul’s eyes widened, and he turned to New.
"So… How was life for you, my young friend?" rejoined Old.
"Well, where do I start?" a bit of time had passed before he retorted.
"I saw amazing things, grand things, vast things, dreadful things, horrible things, terrible things, wonderful things, weird things, awful things."
"Felt soft things, hard things, smooth things, rough things, hot things, icy things, gross things."
"I’ve sniffed pleasant things, wonderful things, awful things, terrible things, gross things, disgusting things, unpleasant things."
"I’ve tasted sweet things, sour things, bitter things, bad things, gross things, and awful things."
"I’ve Heard good things, great things, fabulous things, weird things, bad things, terrible things, unpleasant things, horrible things, terrible things, awful things."
New Soul blurted to Old Soul, "Do you think I can live again?"
Old’s eyes welled up as he stared at New, knowing full well that this soul had a fulfilled and wonderful life.
Just as Old was about to say something to New Soul.
Old soul's ticket is called and Old starts panicking, looking back and forth between New Soul and the angel.
"It’s ok, you go on and I’ll see you around in Haven," New said to Old, Old looked at New
"You go on ahead, and I’ll catch up to you." Old had tears going down his cheeks, and got up from his seat,
"I’ll be waiting for you on the other side," said Old as he was walking away
"Yeah, see you soon." New Soul returned.
Old Soul walked with the angel to a room and was told that he would go to heaven due to his deeds and actions and would be a basic-level spirit.
Old Soul was fine with that, and he was led to a corridor and was instructed to go all the way through.
And he did and found that he was trekking on grass and there were trees around him; so he strolled to a tree and sat under it.
Just was like what he did in the younger years of his life when he was living, with the warmth of the sun on him and a cool breeze blowing with the sound of the leaves rustling.
Old Soul lay there waiting and, at a time, a soul would strod through and then a group would wander through.
This happens from time to time.
It was not long for Old to close his eyes and was thinking about his life and remembering all the things he had done, seen, felt, and tasted when he heard "Hello!"
It startled the Old, and he peered up to see the New standing next to him and the Old jumped up from where he was.
"You made it here, my friend."
"That I did, but it took some time thou," said New.
"Well then, shall we go for a walk?"
"Yes, let’s do that."
So old and New walked around sharing what they did when they lived and enjoying the things of heaven.
