Interesting answers ;) For me, I would have to say I feel this world is our learning ground. We are here to learn as much as we can from our daily encounters, and experiences. We are here to lean, but not to judge. Thats the most important part. Not to judge,.. as hard as that is. When I say learning, I mean to achieve pureness. I believe God like most people, as well as reincarnation. So I think we have many lives, all for the purpose of eventually being aligned with God. Wow I sound kinda wild. Im not a religious nut, but I am spiritual. That's a great question mollymandy, i'd love to hear what you think.
