Just for curiosity lets play with a thought. Just play along, in no way is this an attempt to question anyone's beliefs, you can go back to believing in them at any time. But now I ask you to suspend them for awhile. After that you can go "Oh yeah nice thought, but no thanks." It's like going to the movies, you suspend your beliefs and identify yourself with the main character. Even the main character may go "That's not possible" when something "impossible" happens. But whatever happened, did just happen and there's no way around it, the main character has to accept that, and the same goes for the audience that identifies with the main character. And after that certain movie audience may again believe whatever they want and go back living their lives.
Sure people can go watch movies without suspending any of their beliefs and truths, but that ruins the experience. For the main character whatever happens to her/him and around her/him is reality, although it's fictional for you. "No that can't happen, because of the laws of physics" yeah that might be the case in your world, but it did happen in the movie, and that's the reality you are trying to experience. It's just a movie, after that movie the laws of physics apply again, no harm done believing otherwise for the duration of the movie. Everything's back to normal. Everything is OK. Nothing is lost if you suspend your beliefs for just a little while. It's is possible to enjoy the movie.
So now we have established that, we can have our little thought experiment. And now comes the first thing to swallow: reincarnation. That is to die and born again. And no, I'm not saying that's how it is. It's just a concept to give a perspective, one way of telling a message.
So let's imagine that after you die, you will be born again. But not as a different person or an animal, but you are to live your life again. You live your timeline again and again, your parents live their timelines over and over again. Your children live their lives all over again. And the timelines are interwoven together, they are overlapping each other, that means even though your parents live a different time line, you get to see them, because their ending is overlapping with your beginning.
So what's this has do with the quality of life? Imagine you will live your life again, wouldn't you try to improve it? And to improve it you will have to be totally honest with yourself, because if you lie to yourself, you have to live with that lie. So if you pretend to like something, you are only lying to yourself. And next time around you'll have to go through it again, and that will go forever. You may realize that "oh shit, I have to live my past again" but you made it this time, and now you are here again. Reading this. And now you realize, that you are in control of your life, maybe because you don't believe in fate.
You cannot change the past, but you can do something about the future. Will you wait just something to happen or will you actually do something and go see for yourself what your life is all about? Will you let everyone tell you what life is or will you see it for yourself? Remember, you will do the things again and again. If you wait something to happen, you will do so the next time around, if you let others tell you what your life is, you will let them do so the next time too. And that will continue forever. So what kind of life you want to live forever?
Here's another thing to think about: Imagine if other people was you, just living a different timeline. And those who do you harm, haven't yet realized that you are them, and they are just hurting themselves. But it's their purpose to do those things, so you did what you have done and everything that has happened led you here. You are everyone and everyone is you.
Imagine that you are the first and only person/thing in this planet, and you wanted company. You would have the power to create anything. You would create company. Someone to interact with. But how would that interact with you? That it does whatever you wanted to? That would get boring really fast. So if you wanted it to interact with you like someone with the same level of consciousness that you have, you'd have to be that someone. How would that work? How can you be the other one if you are already yourself? Here's the point where you have suspend everything you "know" about "anything." If you say that's impossible, I must ask: Have you really tried, I mean really tried? Be honest with yourself. Are you just repeating something that someone/something has said to you. The past, or the memory of it is also just a story that you believe. So you can't really trust that either, only thing that you can be sure of is what you are experiencing now, will you let that experience be dictated by your past and what someone has told you?
Now let's get back to where we were. So you create someone that has the same level of consciousness as you do, so it has to be you. Would you like to do everything that someone wants you to do? I'm guessing no. So now you live your life as this second person interacting with the first that is also you. That way the second person is respectable company. Both of them would live their lives as themselves with the another one. They wouldn't live identical lives because though the consciousness is same, the perspective is different. If they were to live side by side holding hands, the other would experience life as a person who holds someone's left hand and the other as someone who holds the other's right hand. If they were to hold both hands and stand facing each other, the other would see a forest behind the companion and the other would see something else.
Everyone has their own life, but influences somehow everyone else's. So what kind of influence do you want to be on someone's life? (You don't only have an influence, you are an influence) What kind influence you want to be on your own life? Do want to pretend to be something you are not, lie only to yourself and live in that lie? Or do you want be honest with yourself and live a life that you can live with.. forever? You are you to yourself.
So that's that, now you can resume your beliefs and truths. And go on with your life, believe what you want to believe. No-one can tell you otherwise.
