I do and I'm not sure why. I don't belong to a religion that believes in reincarnation or have any basis for this belief. I've just always had the feeling that when you die your soul moves on to form a different spiritual being. Maybe I'm just being hopeful, or maybe I've just lived before and there's a latent memory in me somewhere telling me this is true!? 
. Well who knows really, and I guess there's no way of finding out for sure (unless maybe I get regressed, but that seems a bit scary to me). Do you believe that we get reincarnated?

I'm sorry dear but I dont. I believe that you go to heave or hell , depending on how your life has been. I'm a active christian and thats part of my belief. I'm not going to tell you that you are wrong because I feel like everyone is entitled to an opinion,but I would try to figure out why you believe what you believe though.
Thanks for the discussion!

Thanks for your response and it's interesting to hear your opinion. I don't know why I believe it, it just somehow 'feels' right to me. Maybe one day I'll figure it out, although of course never know for sure! Take care.

This is a religious belief. Buddhism is based on reincarnation.

Thanks for your answer. I'd be interested to learn what Buddhists believe regarding reincarnation. I'll try to find out more about it.

I do believe in reincarnation. I believe that when we pass from this life we all move on to the same place. There we can visit with loved ones and talk with other souls we have known. We can decide to stay for a time or forever. If we choose to come back into life again we can then decide what lesson we might wish to learn and the important people who will be there with us. Other souls might decide to work with us or volunteer to go along and help us.
Personally I think I was DRAGGED here kicking and screaming this time. lol not really. I do think that I came here because of another soul who wanted to. I have spent this life trying to convince my soul not to come back again. I've learned enough for a while. :)

Thanks for your answer sisterjinx. I love your belief about what happens and it sounds like something that I can relate to. If it's not too personal a question, can I ask you where this belief comes from, is it from a certain religion or belief system or something unexplainable that you feel to be true? Without sounding like a nut-case (maybe it's already too late, lol!) reincarnation's just something that I've always felt to be true.

These are things I have always believed. I was raised Christian and it just never felt completely right for me. My beliefs so radically differed even as a child. I now follow a Wiccan path and that is a path that most resonates with my beliefs.

That's interesting. Yes, I've heard of people being hypnotised to discover their past lives, but I guess it would be unusual to actually remember them. Yes, maybe it's just as well we don't remember, maybe we're not meant to know and who knows what you might discover. Thanks for your answer.
