since suffering is a major theme to me and is of great importance to me
i have spent a lot of time thinking about it. the issue for me is resolving
the image of a loving compassionate god with the idea of so so many
people suffering here . so here are some of the conclusions i have come to
they are the only thing that makes sense to me
we live many many many lives many thousands maybe millions i dont know but definitely many
we choose the life we are going to live when we come here it is not
imposed on us as some form of punishment.
we are here for the experience of life itself be it a life that is viewed
as happy or as sad we chose to experience it
our lives are not linear we jump around one time we might be very rich
the next life abjectly poor again we are here for the experience
the experience that we gain is added to the common pool for use by
the entity that is known as humanity.
i know this might be common knowledge for some but for me it is an
important breakthru and i thought i would share it
