Do you consider yourself an "Old Soul" ?

In your opinion what constitutes being an Old Soul?

Being Old King Cole

@TheSirfurryanimalWales He was indeed a "Merry old soul"馃槣

No but for some reason my mind beautifies the time before I was born. I feel like it was more peaceful and less hectic than my lifetime. I enjoy watching movies from that era.
SW-User
Haha so you're saying that I am 馃槢

I don't know. To me an old soul is someone more knowledgeable about history & the past in general, wise, and blends well with older people. I don't find those qualities in myself.

But you could be right in that watching those movies says something like it could be a form of escapism.

Yikes that's a cruel dream.

@SW-User Some would say you have returned just to clean-up a little karma before moving on. Just an observation.

Like reincarnation? @Grateful4you

What I believe may be controversial to many people, but here goes -
Old souls are souls who have been in the cycle of reincarnation for a long time and have accumulated wisdom from those various reincarnations. When they incarnate as human form, they carry some of their wisdom into their life and it shows in the way and content of what they speak and how they interact.

I don't know whether I am an old soul, but I am not a young soul either.

Yes and no. Lots of traits in me that you usually find in older people but I can also still act my age.
Grateful4youM
@ImRileyTheDog I'm similar.

I dont consider myself to be an old soul.
Littlewing36-40, F
@Grateful4you yes i have heard stories of children like that as well. I have no past life memories either. Yes who knows?! I dont rule out reincarnation.
Grateful4youM
@Littlewing Nor do I especially, with the realization most of the world does indeed believe in reincarnation. I think volunteering to be hypnotised would be fun just to see if anything actually emerges from the session.
Littlewing36-40, F
@Grateful4you yes. Being hypnotized would be cool.

Thanks for BC馃榾
Grateful4youM
@TheSirfurryanimalWales Most welcome sir.

I can't say for myself, but I've been called such. I've been told it's because of the way I treat and care for others before taking care of myself. Especially the kids I've taken into my home.
MagentaF
I don't believe in the phrase, our souls are only as old as we are since birth. I think it's just a romantic notion or fantasy.
SW-User
I don't, I consider myself alien

No, just old.
Grateful4youM
@basilfawlty89 GET OFF MY LAWN! (You ain't even middle aged yit youngin')
Not necessarily me, but my child. It's like she's been here before. She's incredibly reflective.
@Grateful4you She used to day stuff like that. Saw people that werent there.
Grateful4youM
@V00doo Sounds like she is going to need a LOT of nurturing and support. She is super sensitive. It will be both a gift and a curse. More than likely very empathetic which can be emotionally draining. I bet she will prefer the company of her elders more than her own peer group as she get's older. I wish you and her my best.
@Grateful4you Definitely.
