We have a hard enough time dealing with all the drama we go through in this life, imaging having another 160 years on of that? She said that forgetting was the best gift to us. We get a clean slate everytime.
It was our decision... God does not will one to forget. It was a decision made in its entirity. if we want to remember, we can but as you have pointed out, we are here to learn. If we have a billion songs going through our brains all at once, how can we sing one of them?

But I agree with your Dream message...there is nothing to die. The Body cannot die because it's my Life Force, my Soul, that gives Life to the body, and that is pure energy, which is indestructible.

How can you cease to exist? I find this harder to concieve than an afterlife.
