I was amazed that this mind could already function on its own, and that it was so absorbent, with the ability to comprehend what I was communicating to it. Once connected with my spirit, this wonderful mind worked with great speed, and it didn't take long before the information exchange was completed. Soon, my spirit and my mind merged into one consciousness; my spirit settled completely into my physical body, and the two began to feel and act as one.
Now, not only did I have to get used to a body that seemed foreign to me, but I had to adapt to being inside my mother's body, as well. However, this came more easily as time passed. When I realized she and I were joined as one, I was very happy. The relationship we shared was a wondrous thing. I could feel the same physical sensations she was feeling. I could also understand her thoughts and feel her emotions. It was even possible for me to see through her eyes, if I wanted to. All these things were new to me—physical sensations, feeling mother's emotions, seeing with mother's eyes—and I didn't always understand what was happening.
Although I was no longer in Heaven, my angel guide sometimes spoke to me, continuing to teach and explain the process I was undergoing. She didn't appear to me, but communicated to me telepathically. I could talk to her, too, but only if she opened the line of communication by talking to me first. She comforted me when I was frustrated, and explained things I'd be doing soon. Our conversations only lasted a short while, but that was okay, because I became increasingly happier and more satisfied to be where I was.
Then one day I felt myself turning upside down. It was very uncomfortable. I had no idea what was happening, and I felt nervous and anxious. Suddenly, I found that my spirit was outside of my mother's body—I was standing next to the escort angel who had brought me to earth. We spoke for a long time, and he tried to calm me down and rid me of my fears, telling me that this was all part of being born. I learned that we are all monitored closely from Heaven, especially when we are inside the womb. Whenever we feel anxiety or concern, we are counseled and reassured. This time, I was preparing for birth, and my fear brought my escort to calm me. Yet, while he spoke, I had a longing to rejoin my fetal body. I felt a part of it already, and wanted to continue my journey. Finally, the escort said, "You have to return to your mother now," and he sent me back into my physical body.
I was still upside down, and I still didn't like it. A short time later, I began moving downward and growing ever more upset and uncomfortable. My angel guide had not shown me my actual birth in the Life Book, so I was quite shocked when I abruptly found that I had left the warmth of my mother and was now, for the first time, in an environment that felt very cold. A doctor and a nurse were arguing about something—the tones of their voices loud and harsh, so different from Heaven. Then the doctor smacked my bottom, and I gasped a deep breath of air that burned in my chest.
