Hello, I joined the forum a few days ago and have been reading all the threads with interest! My name's Rebecca, I'm 30 and I live in the UK. I'll try not to bore you with all the details of my story yet, but just try and let you know what brought me here!
I read about reincarnation as a child and it always made perfect sense to me. As I reached the age of about twelve I had certain feelings that didn't really fit with my current life, feelings of extreme love and loss that I could never explain. Feelings of fear. It's always been more about emotions for me, but I had a vague idea of two lives I might've lived.
Then, around October last year, I started to get facts. Thinking it was my imagination, I looked up a name I'd been given. I thought I'd never find her and have a good laugh at my stupidity for even bothering to look, end of story. But I found her on the census, at the right age, in the right place. That, with a few other things, has given me a fair idea of my life directly before this one. It all really startled me.
It's taken me a few months to try and get my head around it all. I didn't really handle it very well, I've been frustrated and sad and a little preoccupied, with a rush of unhappy feelings from that life. I don't really have anyone I can talk to, despite having an incredibly understanding partner and parents, it's an awkward topic! It relates to my family in this life and involves a romance with someone other than my current partner (someone who hasn't incarnated this time). They keep saying "You can talk to us about anything!" and I just keep thinking "But not this!" So they've heard the basics, but nothing of the detail that's bothering me.
So, all this has led me here. Sorry to give such a long intro, it's just so nice to be with people who understand! Looking forward to getting to know you all better and hearing your stories.
