I sometimes think that without the ability to cherry-pick beliefs for convenience, there would be no organized religion at all. The human mind has a powerful ability - perhaps even a need or a drive - to rationalize almost anything. We ‘make’ our lives make sense. I’ve come to view religion as a part of that. I do not believe in reincarnation. I do not discount the idea that our lives may have some energy that has to dissipate and that’s perhaps why we sense people for a while. But that’s me ‘making sense’ for me so take it that way.

I’m a very strong believer in past lives (is that the same thing?)
There’s been too many people that when we’ve first met we felt we’ve known eachother our whole lives.
I have this one friend who is very intune. He’ll start talking to me like we are in a past life together because he picked up on a memory or something. He’ll start apologizing about something and I’m like what are you talking about? ☺️ If anyone has watched The OA it reminds me of that.
I’ve had a reading before about a past life where it ended from me sharing stuff that was prohibited. She said it could cause throat problems in this life. She’s spot on. I’m meant to speak my truth to heal from that past life. So I do.

I dont know that I believe in reincarnation (as in you come back as something else after you've died). I do believe the spirits of those who have died can come back to those who loved them and give them comfort when they need it most. Not like they are ghosts...but more like you can close your eyes and just feel them. I've had it happen to me many times and its usually when for whatever reason, I need it the most. And it certainly isn't on demand or everyday.
