Although I do not believe in reincarnation, I do believe in the continuation of life.
What I find fascinating is genetics. We are literally the sum of all the generations before us.
In your poem, you talk about walking down the path and recognizing faces of friends before.
I believe in a life before life; that we existed before in a spiritual realm where we all knew each other and we recognize each because we were friends there before we came to earth in the bodies we now have.
But that is much longer discussion. 😊
Interesting post.
Thanks for sharing your view, and I can definitely buy into that. I mean, if the Big Bang theory is correct, then at one point, we were all physically one thing and then split into trillions of particles - so it's plausible that our collective consciousness was present during that time.
That's another way to look at it.
