Far, far beyond my imagination.

I’m wondering. About the possibility of higher forms of life. Much higher than the human. And could I ever become the highest form? And how does one determine the highest form? Maybe I could settle for being a human. Forever. If that were my only choice. Better that than nothing. Makes me wonder, too. If I could come back only as a dog or a cat or a bird. Would that be better than nothing?  Anyway, I can imagine so very much. Maybe that’s the best part of being human. Being endowed with imagination. Not sure that my beloved cats have imagination.  I can imagine being inside a cat’s mind. But I’m pretty sure that a cat can’t probe my mind. Apparently, there are degrees of consciousness. Of mindfulness.  The highest forms of life. Maybe they have a consciousness that goes far, far beyond my imagination. –Jim Broede
