Families and Reincarnation
One aspect of reincarnation I find especially intriguing is that all members of a family, even though they probably knew each other in numerous past lives, may not be working on the same lifetimes in this present life.
It would be simpler if everyone were working on the same lifetime. That way if, for example, they had all lived during the American civil war, they could all go to civil war reenactments together, collect civil war memorabalia, and watch movies about the civil war.
But, if, for example, the father is working on the the civil war lifetime and his son is working on an experience during the time of the pharaoh’s in ancient Egypt, you can see how the father could not understand his son and the son could be bored with the endless family excursions to civil war museums and battlegrounds.
It gets even more complicated in the area of human emotions if family member A is working on a previous lifetime in which the family member A was betrayed by family member B and family member B is working on a lifetime in which they both had a deep love relationship. Family member A will not be able to trust family member B and family member B will feel hurt because family member A is not reciprocating the love family member B feels for family member A.
These are the kinds of scenarios that make life interesting.
