    I doubt it.

    Me, too. I do like to think the world would be a better place if more of us could remember a little more about where we came from and how we came to be who we are. It might help us to be a little more empathetic and compassionate about people behind us on the path--and about people on other paths entirely. If that makes any sense...

      Yes, yes. I like to believe that they do have those memories for this very reason.

      And I think I was leaping to the butterfly as what happens after death - our death. My assumption (and hope) is it is either a whole new think or NO thing.

    Maybe they do, maybe we have memories form before we are born but we / they just can't access them?!?!?! Hmmmm something to think about, thank you.
