Life

After you finish your reconciliation with the currently available souls of the important people in your recently ended life experience, you begin to regain your memories of your existence in Heaven. If this was your first life experience, you will probably attach special significance to the souls of the people you loved in life. You will probably have a strong desire to stay with them in Heaven, but it is seldom possible. It would be very unusual for all of them to be at the same level in Heaven, and after the reconciliation process, they each would return to their own level. If they are within one level up, or inward, or two levels down, or outward, then you will probably be able to visit them. You may also see them again during the reconciliation processes of other returning, or re-awakening, souls.

If you have experienced more than one life, then you will regain your memories of those lives as you regain your memories of Heaven. You may have been a man in one life, and a woman in another. You may have experienced being a father and a mother, a sister and a brother, a daughter and a son, a husband and a wife. When you regain your memories, which is your "real" family? The most recent one? Do you pick and choose among all the family members for the ones most special to you? Remember, they may also have lived multiple lives. As special as you may have been to them in life, in Heaven you may just be one of many souls that were special to them. Fortunately, in Heaven it is easier to love multiple souls without the petty jealousies that arise on earth. With the ability to share thoughts comes the possibility of far greater understanding.

You may also have friends in Heaven that you have never encountered during a life experience. And of course, it is possible that you found your soul mate while on earth, and you continue to be close in Heaven. Some bonds between souls in Heaven are formed with the hope of eternal friendship, but eternity is a long time. It often happens that souls advance at different rates. As much as they try to stay together and help each other, eventually one of them will move to a different level. They may continue to visit each other, but will probably begin to grow apart. They will find that they don't really understand each other as they once did. It will become increasingly difficult to ignore each others thoughts about the situation. This is usually a slow process. It can be triggered by each of the souls experiencing a life, and only one of them being changed by the experience. Even if they both agree not to risk experiencing additional lives, over time, very small differences will become meaningful. Perhaps something like one of the souls wanting to advance marginally more than the other. Therefore, it is possible, but increasingly unlikely over time, to stay exactly equal with another soul.

Many souls experience guilt, regret, and remorse, after their reconciliation. They remember their recent life as seen through the lens of their heavenly standards. They judge themselves too harshly. They think of all the things they should have done, and didn't do, or the things they did, that they should not have done. The more advanced the soul, the higher the standards for what they should have accomplished in their life. Souls frequently punish themselves for a time by forcing themselves down to the lowest level they can reach, because they think they deserve it. But God set up the system according to how you really are, and not what you think you deserve. Eventually they tire and float back to their true level. They do their best to learn from their mistakes, and then move on.
