Without trying to sound like a JW lol ...
There must be a purpose to it all...
I have only been awake a few months but I lean towards some kind of re-incarnation ... It might sound silly to some but I now believe that when I die something within me will live on and I will meet those who I love now again in another life but will not realise - but I will be close to them again in some way
DBTT :)
