Guest guest Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 Danny, I have a theory about why you had that 'strange' thought of wanting to die when you were a happy 4-year-old. You were remembering how it is at 'Home' ('Heaven')...where we go in between lives...and you naturally wanted to be back there because that's where we are in our natural state: spirit. It is an incredible 'place' of peace and God's love. When we are children, we are still close enough to that state that some of us can remember being there, or remember past lives...perhaps you've read of children remembering their past lives. As we get older, 'life' and socialization set in and we begin to forget...we get further and further away from that perfect state and most of us forget it completely until we return there after our death in the current life. So that is quite a great memory! You were remembering Heaven!! Blessings & love, Danny, Claudia --- xrewindx <xrewindx wrote: > I'm speechless.
