@rollingf I posted something about this in a comment to another person. It is true, universally, that people say they want to go "home." My dad said it over and over. I suggested a couple of books on NDEs and I truly believe that our souls leave our human vessels when we pass. I also believe in Jung's version of "synchronicity" as well as connections to everything and everyone. Some connections are stronger due to the relationship and there is a knowing that we have deep withing us. There is no coincidence. Everything happens for a reason and those reasons we may or may not know, but we will at some point. We know so little about the Universe, quantum mechanics and consciousness. I have a knowing deep withing me and maybe some of you do as well. I believe that is the part of me that is connected to everything. Thank you for your post!!

Wow! well said. I believe that our "knowing without proof" is a real part of our spirit and soul. It's referred to as noetics. We have this powerful gift because we are made in the image of God. Not necessarily hands , feet , and a beard, but with sentience and consciousness, which are the results of eating the fruit of the tree of Knowledge, which God wanted us to do, and knew we would, so we could interact with His creation and gain wisdom (hopefully). He made sure we would "eat" the "forbidden " fruit by warning us not to.
Otherwise, we'd be running around naked, innocent, and ignorant for the last 6000 years! Like Eloi.
Only we humans, made in the Image of God, have this gift . Nothing else in existence does. Mu!!!
There is synchronicity per force of the Collective Unconscious.
Billy Joel : We all start in the Ocean. We all end in the Stream. We're all carried along by The River of Dreams.
Jung was/is so right, even though he couldn't "prove" anything.
