...Wow...
I mean...wow...that's all really quirky...
I sorta believe in re-incarnation and past lives...but the other side of me thinks that this person just wrote all this just for entertainment. I feel...very conflicted about this little essay right now. I WANT to believe it, but I feel like...hmmm...yeah.
I was playing my computer game, you may have heard of it somehwhere, called "The Egyptian Prophecy", and it's about Ramses II wanting to prolong his life in his 60th year, so he prayed to Amun-Re at Abu Simbel. And Amun told him he had to erect a very large obelisk for him before the season of Shemu, so that Ramses can live until his 80th year in the season of Akhet. So they build a temple to Amun and make ready for the said obelisk, but then strange accidents occur on the site, and the high priest and chief architect, Paser, falls ill. So Maya--the young magician girl and the character you control--is sent to investigate. When I was playing the game, Maya goes up these stairs in Memphis after she meets Osiris in the Book of the Dead, and all of a sudden, I blinked, and saw stairs from Tut's tomb, and I felt like I was walking up them. I just shook it off...
God-wise, I feel close with Ptah for some odd reason. I guess it's cause he's the God of artisans, and I'm creative in that department. I mean..I like Osiris, and Amun and such...but Ptah is a God I revere the most. Not only that, my favorite Egyptian city is Memphis, where Ptah resides. (am I right? I'm trying not to sound like a damn fool here...).
Tut is the same, Akhenaten too. I had "visions" or whatever about Akhetaten, I even dreamed about it too. It was actually funny. One minute, I'm watching Akhenaten ride by on the Royal Road in his chariot, the next, I'm standing by him as he sits on his throne, getting all these gifts like gold and statues. I even saw Tut there, roaming the halls.
But I usually dream I'm in Tut's tomb...always with visions, it's either at Akhetaten or in Tut's tomb( In 1922 when it was discovered. I see people pulling out the furniture and such.).
Every time I see Tut's mummy...I get sad. Then I get mad that they pull him out. Then I get upset cause of how he looks as a mummy. Then I get worried cause of the attack in Egypt, God forbid Anything should happen to the tomb, and to Tut, then I start crying again. Damn connection crap...I always wonder why I feel so strongly about him, and about him and Akhenaten being father and son.
Well, whatever, it's 3 A.M here and I feel like I'm ranting over something I want to believe in, but can't, cause these sort of these are random, pointless fantasies. Just because you have these visons and dreams and connections doesn't mean you actually WERE living back then. But then again, who REALLY knows?
..Sorry, my useless ranting again. ^__^;;
