Strange experience

Indonesia
July 18, 2020 9:47am CST
When the holiday season arrives we often tour the new areas. But sometimes when we get to the place, we seem to feel familiar with the place. Though we have never visited the place before. Have any of you experienced that?

They call it 'deja vu' which means already seen I have been in situations where I know the area even though I had never been there. I don't know why this happens.

If it is a false memory, how does one know what is around the next corner?

@Syukriyanto yes. The mind can create figure based on the information it receives.

The answer is that there is nothing new under the sun. Ecclesiastes 1:9 (New International Version) "What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun."

@Syukriyanto It could be or it might have more meaning then that. Life and the universe have a lot of puzzles that we are far from solving. There is no need to understand all things as we have a possible eternity to live. Enjoy the journey!

Does this mean like a repetition cycle? Something keeps happening again.

Yes. new places will usually provide new experiences. In fact, sometimes it will be the sweetest and best experience in life.
