Brilliantly stated. I recently wrote: " I believe that souls are time travelers in that we can choose to improv-script our masterclasses at any point in time. I do not believe an already-lived-life has to have taken place in the past nor that a yet-to-be-lived life has to take place in the future. I do not believe that the paradoxes of time-line crossing as discussed in science fiction present an issue. Each chosen setting is an alternate reality." https://medium.com/know-thyself-heal-thyself/cosmic-strings-of-time-526824bdd58c
I had not considered the why Keri. I like your why very much. It ties it together for people.
