Past Life...Passing thoughts

Past lives, an eternal topic up for discussions that never really reaches the bottom now, does it? It crossed all our minds once, or several times, if not, it just did.[; Some of us might've even pondered a little longer upon it and made it into more than just a passing thought. What was I in my past life/lives? What kind of a person, if I was a person? What did I do? How did my life turn out? How did I end up? Was I murdered, did I die of natural death, did I end it myself? Did I pass away in the comfort of a warm bed at home, or perhaps in the field in the middle of one of the most important battles at the time, or was I poisoned, staked, stabbed,... hanged? Did I do something wrong? Was I loved? Aren't there just thousands and thousands of questions simply piling up without any answers?
Did you ever think of finding out? How? Because I did. Not the 'how' part, but the 'wanting to find out' part. I never really got around to actions, mostly because I have absolutely no idea where to go to. But I'd love to know. I guess, that reveals a little something about me, don't it? I do believe in past lives. I talked to many people about this, casually, not intentionally, and many confirmed that they too believe, and some... well, some don't. Which is perfectly fine with me, I'd just like to know why not, and not to argue but to see their point of view because I'm genuinely interested.
Some people I talked to mentioned that they see their past lives sometimes in their dreams. Most lucid ones and most profound ones, the ones who really give away the feeling of really existing once, and sometimes places they passed and felt as if they know the place. Not exactly the deja-vu feel, but something along those lines... And in all honesty? I believe them. I believe that is possible, usually even very much true. Why? No, I'm not naive, it's because I had those dreams and feelings too. I had the dreams that felt absolutely real, yet passed, I visited places, where I instantly felt at home or not so much but I felt the presence, I felt and knew inside: "I was here before." It is in fact a strange feeling when you're inside such dream or at such place. However, it is so strong and so hard to be explained that...I honestly couldn't explain it to you with the most colourful and visual of words or drawings, paintings, not in a millions of years. It has to be felt, there is no comparison to it... at least I don't think there is.
These people...they described so many things about their lives. From being up high in the ranks to being low, from commoners to assassins to royal heads, from living in absolutely different countries as to now, being Egyptians in the ancient days to knight/peasants in the Dark Ages... I don't think there's a life style I haven't heard of; and it is beyond impressive to hear them, and I'd love to hear them from you, whoever's reading this. Have you ever thought about it and what did you imagine?

You see, there's also a fact (it's supposed to be but I'm not putting my hand in fire for it) I read about this topic not a long while ago...yesterday even! It said:

"Birth marks are where you were killed in your last life."
 
Yes, you read correctly: where you were murdered in your last life! Did it get you thinking where all your birth marks are? It got me, because I instantly thought of the only one I have. Two small "bumps" one next to each other on the right side of my neck. Now try to imagine the death that would leave wounds there. What's the first thing that crosses your mind? First possible death? I surely first thought of a stabbed neck with a dagger by someone I probably crossed horridly or was in a fight that I lost. Did I mention it right on top of the main artery? Yep! Severed neck, shot in the neck, a sword fight gone wrong, an assassination gone down the drain...the list is probably more or less endless. Damn, must've been a bloody bloody murder.O_O Therefore, I'd really love to know more...makes sense in a way, doesn't it?

Now, where are YOUR birth marks and YOUR thoughts on the whole past lives topic? Where do YOU stand and WHY? How do YOU imagine your past life/lives was/were? Everything!.=P


P.S.: Sorry for the lenght, congrats if you read it all the way through.[; And I mentioned my photography in the last post and I forgot to add: My background is my work called African Memories. A little taste, I guess, you be the judge if it's any good.^^


Peace out!.xD

a Very long time

Waw...I haven't been on here for so long now that everything changed! Well, I'll try and be a little more "consistent" from now on because frankly, stats absolutely blew me away. I saw so many views I'd never thought I'll see. So, I hope you'll like my renewed blog and of course, a more up to date one too.=P

Many things happened that didn't get anywhere near this blog, yet they were quite life changing. No, I won't go rambling them all up and putting them down into a list. I will, however, put up the three short films I did in the meantime that I kindda hope you'll have a pleasant reaction to, not an allergic one. (bottom of the post)
A little thing I ended up doing is also photography. And no again, it didn't come just crashing from the sky on me, I was doing it longer than I thought when my good friend Rebecca (hi!!!) made me notice that I'm doing it rather better than "normal/other people" and just as more frequently, and I am still grateful for that. I'll have a site up in a week probably that will feature my work, until then... keep your fingers crossed nothing crashes it.xD
One more thing, because it is only fair for me to do some promotion up here... no, just kidding. It's not (exactly) a promotion...I think... Rebecca and I founded a production company called The Rebel Saints Production (under which are done all my little films). I'm mentioning this because it's an important part of my life. I have it on my mind very often and we're both hoping to someday push it further in the world, for which we need you all and more to spread the word, hence the primary word 'promotion'.[; We really do have huge ideas for it, even if we are from two absolutely different continents...y'know, shit happens, but that doesn't stop the drive...right?! We're always looking for new filmmakers, and since we're all amateurs for now (and probably some more), we don't require any special sets of skills or professional backgrounds. Up against our "production part" (films), we're also "sponsoring" photographers and artists in general, so you don't need to be shy, we have a couple of connections around the world... looking for aspiring actors&actresses (or people willing to try it), because afterall, you can't make films only with yourself ALL the time and FOREVER.[;
You can find us here: The Rebel Saints Production on Facebook and follow here: TheRebelSaints_ on Twitter

And since this is getting too long, I'll cut it here with a promise: I'll update more often and you better return. I promise (also) my posts won't be all like this one. I can blood sign that for you if you need me to, I know they won't be.xD

1.Apocalypse Now

2.A Snowy (mon)Day
