Anyone have one, or believe in them (or even just curious)? I can remember mine, so if anyone wants to chat please do! I love talking about it with people xD

No, I personally do not believe in the idea of past lives, though I think that there might be a small possibility.

Anyway, what do you remember?

I kind of started remembering backwards, the first thing i remembered is how i died (i drowned..I don't remember the drowning, but I remember going to the lake and then everything blacked out) It so happened i actually meant people that i had know in my past life in this life (they remembered the same things as me, just from different points of view- when i met them, we felt like we had met before and eventually, certain things repeated so I don't talk to some of them anymore) and were able to tell me about other parts of my life (I also get flash backs if i go to places like lakes or trailer parks *i lived in one*) I remember it was in the forties (my fiance was in WW2, he survived (died shortly after though), but i died while he was away) I cant remember my mother or father, just that I had an older brother. I remember a lot of random things as well..just little moments that really have no significance and are sort of hard to explain. Those flashbacks (the insignificant ones) tend to happen when I am with someone I also knew in a past life doing something similar) I am also very uneasy around lakes (not any other types of water though, I actually love the ocean and what not) and my mind set is rather "old fashioned" compared to most people nowadays.

Perhaps this sounds crazy (trust me, it freaks me out at times) but it's just one of those things that (even though I am very scientific) I just know..If that makes sense xD

Interesting. I'm not sure about past lives, personally. But I'm very open to new ideas. I'd love to find some way to see if I can remember, just for, ya know, kicks, I guess. I mean, I believe in some sort of master plan for people, ghosts, etc. Past lives aren't far-fetched in comparison to some of my more "colorful" ideas. There's a reason I'm an author. I deal in ideas and lies.

But, yeah. I don't know exactly about past lives. The only thing I've ever been told was by someone who liked the idea, hopefully jokingly, that I was probably a killer in my last one. Which might make sense. I've noticed both my father and I have an extreme obsession with Armistice Day--the date crops up often around us and it always freaks us out a little. He's a pilot in this life--he took to it like a duck to water. Same with paintball. I starting plotting out battles when I was four. We both have a morbid sense of humor. He has a small obsession with neatness and regulation. I sort of revel in mess in a "Look! That piece of paper in the floor is amazing!" sort of way. I'm disturbed by blood. Former soldiers, maybe. I'm not sure if parent-children stuff like that happens often, though. Hmm.

But, yeah. Really interesting. Love to hear more, or about how you continued to find stuff out or such. New ideas.
My SPD senses are tingling.

Personally I tend to believe in rebirth and past lives and have always found the topic rather fascinating. I’ve done quite a bit research on it and it also happens to be a theme in few of my writing projects. But although I, myself, have some glimpses of memory of possible past life/lives I tend to put it to question so I don’t and can't really claim I remember anything. But I also can’t deny there are some unexplained and rather uncanny glimpses or emotions of familiarity about things, people or places that I havent seen/met before for sure, now and then. I really can’t seem to be able to explain it better than that.

I also believe more in the possibility of past lives and rebirth than in some of the other afterlife ideas. Especially the “there’s nothing after or before" one, I just don’t want to believe that everything we do and the fact we live has no meaning at all, it's just… unappealing. Heaven in hell as seen and told by Christianity and Islam, on the other hand, just seem… somewhat off or lacking.

But I’m getting distracted here. No, you don’t sound crazy, at least to me anyways, and if you wish to discuss the topic in more depth, share your thoughts on it, or just talk with someone with similar interests feel free to message me.

I have met some people who had some remembrance of their past lives and I believe them but I don't know anything about my past life.

Yes I believe in past lives and I have a strong connection with them through divination and astral projection
