> I remember in late grade school I read a biography on Martha Washington and for several months I had the strange feeling that I had been her in a previous life. Has anyone else gone through this type of thing? (Please say yes!!);^0
Well, for me to compare that to my dreams of flying would be stretch, but feeling as if someting is so does not make it being so. Perhaps I unnessecarily obviate. IMHO, channelers misguide and even exploit their clients when they endulge these feelings of identification with a pretense of reality.
After reading Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, I strongly identified with Frodo, on his way to toss the ring of power into the fires of Mordor. It was a time in my life when I needed some direction. I still enjoy the symbolism, but I don't have hairy feet, and probably none of my ancestors have for many, many generations. But I still embrace the concept that I might toss that ring of power into the fire from whence it was made. Grandiose, no?
