Are You An Old Soul?
Learning To Embrace the Challenges Of Being An Old Soul In A Young Soul World
Let me start by saying that reincarnation is part of the illusion that is this physical world. If you don’t believe in it, that’s a moot point because it doesn’t matter in the way you might think it does.
However, I cannot grasp the concept of how some of us come to this life having much more awareness, empathy, and unconditional love for humanity while others are clueless, judgmental and afraid of anyone or anything that is different.
The only way I can reconcile these facts is through the concept of reincarnation. Meaning, the more lives we live the more awareness we have of the connection between souls and the greater empathy we develop for humanity. As I understand it, this is because the more horror we suffer at the hands of our frightened counterparts — either directly through blatant abuse or indirectly through judgment and indifference — the more compassion we feel for our fellow humans.
I’ve studied past lives for 30 years. When I started, I quickly moved beyond the novelty of cocktail party musings of having been Cleopatra in a past life and learned the value of how our experiences of our past lives shapes who we are and how we relate to the world.
