Brilliant take on the topic.
On the ...Kathleen,<br /><br />Brilliant take on the topic. <br /><br />On the subject of past lives, considering my existence at the moment is so crappy, I'm beginning to suspect that, in my previous life, I was me. And I'm paying for it dearly.<br /><br />Great post,<br /><br />AshAshley Listerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11997769708965362938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-11534541635854918452010-09-14T01:08:45.600-04:002010-09-14T01:08:45.600-04:00Alana - The Titanic disaster is one of those event...Alana - The Titanic disaster is one of those events I can't deal with. I can't read about it, and I can't watch movies about it. It was too horrible, and preventable.<br /><br />Garce - One wonders how the human brains connects to an entirely alien point of view and makes sense of it. It boggles the mind. *looks at my cat* *realizes telepathically that she wants fresh water in her bowl* *fills bowl* *cat drinks* What was I saying? Oh yeah.

Interesting what you've brought u...Hi Kathleen<br /><br />Interesting what you've brought up about reincarnation, and very true.<br /><br />I did have a psychic a very long time ago tell me about my past lives and they were mostly pretty mediocre. There was one interesting twist I haven;t heard of happening from anyone else. He said I was originally not a human life form, but a life form that had originated on an entirely different planet in a different part of the cosmos and had come to earth for Karmic reasons.<br /><br />Beat that, Napoleon.<br /><br />I can think of at least a couple of worlds I've created that I'd rather live in. Name of the game.<br /><br />GarceGarceushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11160407485298015371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-82357561248893178172010-09-13T18:36:23.221-04:002010-09-13T18:36:23.221-04:00Fulani - actually, yes, it does make sense.

I...I know what you mean about past life regression. I don't know anyone who went through it and got told they were a poor peasant either.<br /><br />On the other hand my family history is fairly well documented to several centuries back and I do feel a special affinity with (1) an ancestor who was hung for deer poaching and (2) one in the Victorian era who became a music hall singer, managing in the process to dump his rather mundane upbringing and re-invent himself under a pseudonym as a foreigner with an exotic past... from time to time I've toyed with the idea of incorporating his life history into a story.<br /><br />As to worlds we'd like to live in - some of my erotic writing comes from real life (with a bit of tweaking here and there) and mostly it takes place in a world I think would be generally good to live in, albeit one with its shady side and occasional social iniquities (much like the one we do live in, I guess). <br /><br />But my 'other' persona as a writer on the border of SF, fantasy and horror, under my real name, is generally about quite dystopian worlds. Thinking about it, though, they're also like some parts of the world we live in.<br /><br />Not sure how much sense that makes...Fulanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14959628434559905605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-70821739988473008422010-09-13T10:03:53.503-04:002010-09-13T10:03:53.503-04:00Craig - You must have dung farmed in Lake Wobegone...Craig - You must have dung farmed in Lake Wobegone. :)<br /><br />Lisabet - I wasn't all that mystified.
