I'm back to ummmm no... it is not possible. That, after hanging some decorative outside on my patio.

~kidding... to the no part.

Byron said:

yes...and each time we keep trying to work it out.

FreeSpirit said:

Hmm...get back to me after dusting the livingroom...

JasmineFire said:

So if we work it out successfully, do we no longer meet that soul in future lives?...

Byron said:

i don't know, but it's something that i wonder about.

i think i might've been a duke

Byron said:

I believe so, I think we choose who we're going to meet up with in each life and we can travel with the same spirit guides too.
The thing is you aren't the same in every life, you might be someones lover in this life but their parent in another and so on. We have to live many different roles to learn all the lessons we need to learn.

You think we choose who we're going to meet up with or that it is chosen for us?...

Byron said:

it's all chosen roughly, like an outline.
nothing it totally set in stone unless you've planned certain goals for yourself...

All i know is that:
1) i must have done serious shit that i had 2 clean-up cuz serious shit happened 2 me when i was a kid
2) i might have been an english-speaking language cuz i used 2 say english words when i was a baby (my mom told me so) & english became like a 2nd language 2 me
3) i might have been Chinese too cuz i never felt at home like i did in China
4) a medium told me i used 2 b a young aristocrat that was killed because he had gambling debts, back in the 19th century & that's really weird because a few days b4 i had found Dostoievsky's "The gambler" in the street & felt the need 2 take it & read it, which i had done.

as 4 what this life's supposed 2 teach me, i think it's 2 become a better person, as everybody else...

Well, I believe a person lives but once. (Hebrews 9:27).

But, my friends always have seemed to take pleasure in saying that I'm like an old man. Shucks, even in college, I got that.

I had to put the little one to sleep. Had to turn off the rugby too (and England won, it turns out!) and lie down myself so that he'd have no distractions and nod off.

and i have proof.

poor old man

JasmineFire said:

I'm not OLD!!!

When I first landed at Gatwick Airpost and then went to London and looked out of the window of the Gatwick Express I had the feeling I had been there before and felt as if I were coming home. Although I don't even like London that much I feel very much at home there when I am there, so it has become one of my very favourite places in the world.

Some months ago I met someone on my vacation I felt an immediate connection to. Maybe I had met that person in a previous life and if I should never meet him again in this life maybe I will in my next (if there should be one).

Byron said:

I believe we choose who we're going to be in each life and some of the souls we're going to be with. We all have to experience many things before we're done reincarnating. We can use the time in between incarnations to help others on their journeys.

ThreadBare said:

i mean...poor man who is wiser than his years.

JasmineFire said:

I was a backup singer for one of those girl groups in the 50's-60's.....I just don't know which one yet. I think Aretha Franklin maybe.

MIGUELGOMEZ said:

Maybe you were one of the Supremes?
That would bw so cool to know.

i'm not an old soul at all. i've always been a kid and unconsciously i have a tendency to approach similar situations as a new experience all over again (can be bad and good i guess). reincarnation is just one of those things that i believe or don't believe in. if it exists then so be it.

shellyevon said:

Maybe I was reincarnated from the one that died? The one loosely portraid in Dreamgirls.

You may have a point there!!!!

MIGUELGOMEZ said:

You should try and find out. That would be really amazing if you were.

i think anyone who is eager to claim they're an old soul probably isn't.

i guess that puts me in the awkward position of speculating what my "soul maturity" might be.

i have no freakin clue. i meet so many people who seem like delicate, helpless babies to me, even though they're adults...then i meet people who make me feel like a drooling brat my damn self. maybe i'm a middle aged soul.

as for who i was in past lives, i was probably abe lincoln and cleopatra like everyone else was.
