Why Do We Come Here?

I am a mother of four in my mid 30′s and I have been told that I have some psychic abilities, mainly psychometry, paranormal, and lately remote viewing. Things come to me in the form of pictures in my mind, feelings and impressions, and sometimes sounds. I typically get them when asked to focus on specific objects or events. I clear my mind, think of the question or object and this blog is an example of what I get. This blog is a way for me to organize all my thoughts. Q.  I know many people will benefit from this question:  When we are in spirit form without our bodies we are told that we are all knowing, eternal, have everything we need, no pain and don’t experience negativity (unless we want to create that for ourselves).  So, the big question I never see answered quite detailed is: Why do we come here in order to learn and grow if we already know everything and have always existed?  Doesn’t learning require time to exist meaning a starting point and ending point and since there is no time and we’ve always existed and we know everything and are all creators,  why the hell would we want to create this negative earth experience for ourselves to learn?  How can you learn if you already know everything??

A. I first get that the path to ascension is through our experiences in our incarnated form.  These experiences can occur in different dimensions.  Our understanding in spirit is much different than our understanding in our 3D body (mainly with regard to being able to understand and accessing that subconscious knowledge).  

As I focus more on this, I see a line of questioning come toward me. “If you ate your favorite food every day for an indefinite amount of time would you appreciate the taste and have gratitude for it’s existence?”  After the thousandth time (probably much sooner) you would loose appreciation for the taste (or grow numb to it).  

Part of the growth and experience in our 3D reality is the feeling of gratitude, empathy and love, and without the constant contrast, we lose sight of how it feels.  I hear “Sweet isn’t so sweet without the occasional taste of sour.”  Beauty may not feel as wonderful without the contrast of something less beautiful.  Seeing contrast brings forward feelings we could not have otherwise.  I hear “How many times do we experience a gloomy / cold / wet period of time, and crave the sun.  When the sun does shine and the air is fresh, we have gratitude for that day.  If everyday was sunny they would all blur together.”  You can’t appreciate the light if you have never compared it to the dark (you couldn’t even fully understand the concept of what dark was). 

I also hear not to look at our experience here as negative or see the environment as negative, but look at the positive and what you learn.  Much of what we do isn’t what we do, but rather how we handle what we do or how we react in different situations.  If we can pause for a moment and use a higher vibrational emotion to counteract what doesn’t feel good, that is how you truly start to ascend.  

And that is all I have for this reading.  Thank you.  Love and light-
