2/6; 8AM
[Hey Retrospec, I hope you're having a good morning. And if you aren't, well...there's kitty posters that are designed to deal with just that. Hang in there, buckos. But for those of you that ARE, Crow's going to take to the network.
You know those traits that are all the craze and amplifying themselves? Well Crow's got em full swing, and his desire to help out his younger friends overpowers all else--in both everyday life and love lives. Unfortunately, it feeds right into his own self destructive behavior, so...

Hey Retrospec-ers!
It's February, and you know what that means? Smmmoochessss? Hand holding. Candle light dinners~
It's a whole month dedicated to finding Mr. or Ms. Right, and with Valentine's day right smack in the center of the month, it's even generous enough to give you 2 weeks to buy discount candy. What could be better?
Well I'll tell ya
How about a date with my buddy, Rean Schwarzer? The guy had a pretty rough month in January and he's a little too shy to get out into the world and meet someone
He's about 5'8'', black hair, pretty good looking if I had to judge myself... He'll talk to you about anything and everything, and personality's got a little kick to it, if you're looking for excitement
Contact for more details
LATER!

Those waffles are no joke, and stuffed with strawberries and cream cheese

I may be in need of waffles now. My poor diet.

YOLO
You Only Live Once
2/2
Or
Twice. I guess. In our case
no subject
Do you want to know something I believe in, Crow?
no subject
But of course, I'm always open to broadening my view on life
no subject
Some souls are younger than others, but it is very rare to come across one who has done a yolo. Usually, those souls are so poor that they do not make it to the living world, and must come again, and again, and again until they are born with enough health to live. It is a complex teaching!
We have all lived many, many lives in my faith. And that very number of lives influences our moral evolution and how we view our world today.
no subject
But it was somewhat comforting, to know that life isn't just a start and a finish, but a cycle. And that this is a rare occasion to learn from that cycle, and to see what you once were.
Not to become it, like Elliot had told him once. But to...well, as he said, broaden his perspective.]
You are wise well beyond your years, Ahmi
Do you believe that, like now, souls can naturally attract themselves to souls they've been close to in the past? Some of us here have people from our past life's world
Do you think they follow each other?
no subject
And I am smiling. Yes, in a way. Consider a spiritual plain that we do not see. Neither heaven nor hell, but where our souls gather to be reborn.
One more question, before I continue filling your head. Do you believe in fate?
no subject
Those are the ones you take advice from. It's how his grandpa was, too.]
I didn't used to. I thought it constricted you to a path and you had no choice but to follow it
But recently
I've found that it's not so black and white, and it's kinda opened my eyes a little bit more to it
no subject
I do believe in fate, but it is as you said. You are not constricted to paths or ends as stringently as it is made out to be. We meet in this plain of sorts, yes? We converse as we would in this world, but it is a place of rest, wait and recovery. Souls who have suffered traumatic physical ends, for example, are treated in this plain until they are ready to start over.
Anyway! We make our own plans. We construct a life around the mission we may be given, whether it is to add to the world, to someone’s growth or your own. We have many friends, even our soulmates if you have found one, who we return to meet again and live with constantly, through hardships and joy, because that is how we grow. Imagine, being able to experience the wonders of searching, finding and falling in love with the soul you are tied to, as many times as you want to live?
But, some things do not always go according to plan. There are accidents, as there is the greatest gift of all. When we are born, Crow, we are given free will. That is why, in the end, we create our own fates. It is the universe’s greatest adventure.
1/2
Ahmi's words are so validating to hear. It's exactly what Crow himself had started to form as his belief, although with a much wiser, broader scope to it.
Fate, but with a choice.
Crow smiles behind the feed, reaching his palm up to fight back the start of a single tear at the corner of his eye. He was never one for BELIEFS and religion per say, but Retrospec had certainly opened his eyes to the idea of reincarnation, and how to live life knowing that your soul is on just one of many journeys.]
2/2 private;
How do you know if you're tied to one specific person in particular?
Or
I guess I should say...your thoughts on the matter
private;
I know we’ve met, for example.
private;
We have? How can you tell?
Is it just a feeling? Or did these dashing good looks just carry over multiple past lives?
private;
But we have! And many others. I don’t quite remember it myself, but I feel it. It pulses with life just as my heart does.
private;
But I completely believe it. I know Rean and Elliot have shared a past life and...who knows if its more than just one
Seems I was always kinda protective of Rean even back then, though
private;
But of course! I wouldn’t limit myself to what I remember. The universe is vast, and one life is so short compared to it all. Why do you think we return, if that is something you believe in?
There’s so much to do, so many people to reunite with, and so little time.
private;
I see the light
It's coming closer....
But no seriously, you make a lot of good points, and Retrospec wraps them all up in a neat little bow
I'd like to think we've been bouncing around each other for quite some lifetimes...it'd make sense why we got along so well when we met
Pretty lame sounding, I know
private;
If you are lame, then imagine me! I’m cheese and corn.
private;
I think you fit something much, much better than cheese and corn
Marshmallow
Soft and sweet

private;
I don't know if I'm prepared for the squish, but I accept my fate, Marshmallow Queen~
