Well, hello there kiddies
I was just browsing and didn't even know anyone was asking a question of me.. I'm sure the same goes for Evie and the others.. I'm sorry I missed it.
Anyway, let's address the questions at hand... and keep in mind it's just my opinion but frankly if you want to seek answers and you feel reflecting on past lives will help you move forward, go for it. Do it with someone who knows what they are doing though. If you are doing it for entertainment purposes only, have fun with it if you can.
As for mirrors, that's just my own little schtick... I won't buy used mirrors, I won't accept mirrors as gifts (I'll make them disappear) and I never look into a mirror for too long of a time. I explained why in another thread. Will I one day venture off and try it again, that remains to be seen... At the present moment, not likely.
With regards to having fun as a diversion... you can't take life so damn seriously. Life is short and it goes by fast... if you're going to live life, have fun with it, find pleasure in it, enjoy every moment you can and seize the day because it's the only one you have. Once that moment is gone, it's gone for good.. it's just a memory may as well be a good one. Of course I mean have fun in the sense where you aren't having fun at someone else' expense or hurting anyone... but truly enjoying life. And no, nobody is going to be positive, happy go-lucky and optimistic all of the time... we all have off days... I happen to be having a semi-off day today. But if you're having more off days than good days, then hopefully in your own time you'll make whatever changes are necessary to have a happier life.
Two weeks ago I put one of my friends in the hospital and I told her she had no choice but to go because I would throw her over my shoulder if she resisted and she knows I'd do it too, because I suspected her appendix was bursting after I had taken her from doctor to doctor and they had no idea what was going on. Sure enough, her back pain was a burst appendix and the doctor in the ER said to me he was concerned because of where the pain was and said the worst case scenario would be to remove her appendix, colon and part of her intestines but he wouldn't know until he got in there with the labroscopy... That was unnerving, especially since I was her proxy and would have to make the decisions for her, but with good humour I started in with the jokes because I knew she was scared and got her laughing immediately. Serious moment, but do I want her last thoughts before she goes under the knife to be worry or the few good laughs she had before hand? I choose the good laugh, so did she and she appreciated it. And yes, it had perforated her colon, but it would heal, and they let her out of the hospital after 4 days and she's fine... Thank God. Life is short... you have a choice to take things too seriously or to make the best out of bad situations... the choice is yours.
I hope my answers were helpful, but keep in mind my take on things are just that, my take on things and no one else's.
Be good,
Angelique
