I must be more precise when I write. I am aware that not everyone can think the way the reincarnationists here that I have across think. What i wrote was merely my thoughts on it. I have seen a few documentaries on the subject, the most memorable being The Bloxham Tapes and the one about this English woman who kept dreaming that she had been an Irish woman with many children. All the details she recalled were verified and she had a meeting with her surviving children, all elderly, who accepted that she had been their mother and she became accepted as part of their family. A moving and fascinating story. I did wonder tho, and it is just a thought, whether this woman had for some reason, been chosen by the mother in her spirit form to go and 'gather the family' to let them know that their mother was okay. Those that have left the physical plane often come back to 'talk' to us and perhaps this woman was very perceptive and was aware of the presence of this woman. The way spirit talk is inward and I suppose could feel like memory. One of things I look forward to in death is finding out the answers! It will be a great adventure.(and hopefully minus those who think they already have the answers!) bw colin ps I said a lot more in my post and i suppose i am disappointed it was ignored.
