I dont know about crossing paths with someone from a past life, although I believe it i've never "felt" as if i've known them before yet. Although
I believe in reincarnation, especially after I had a prominent dream about 2 or more months ago about my spirit entering a man who was in uniform,
studying, and clearly back in the day. I remember the three stripes on his uniform over his forearm (since I was him in the dream I was looking down
at the book), the annoying book pages that wouldn't stay down, the oddly designed desks, the chalkboards which surrounded the room on all four sides.
I also remembered trying to create a way to remember the dream while I was in it, so I looked around the room and saw that each board had two
rectangles drawn, with one recteangle horizonal over the top of the other two, along with a triangle inside the horizontal one. I told myself the twin
towers, because the two vertical rectangles reminded me of that, and then the horizontal one for some reason Puerto Rico came to my mind, although at
the time I was not aware what the flag actually looked like, the horizontal rectangle ended up matching that flag. Besides remembering the dream in
full detail, I remember the morning I woke up, clearly conscious, I told myself "Man, I just had a really important dream" then I tried remembering
it but was not successful. Then I held up my fingers up in such a way that it looks like your shooting the middle finger at someone. Turns out a day
or two later I finally pick up a book i've had since I was about 11 called "LIFE: The power and glory", I was drinking and decided to look at all
the pictures of the history of war. Anyways, I finally got to the page with a picture i've seen many times before of 8 West Point Cadets, Class of
1936 studying a book about a French artillery gun. Turns out when I finally focused in on the man, I instantly said "holy #, that guy looks like
me", didn't think too much of it, but then I showed my mom and told her to just look at the picture and the first thing she said was "thats you"
while pointing to the man, in a funny way, but my sister, mother, and girlfriend all agree it looks alot like me. After that, and about a day later
the dream just finally came back in full detail, once I noticed the finger placement. The pages on the book he is putting his right hand on are
upwards, in a sense that they are bouncing back and not staying down very well. His fingers are in the exact position I woke up remembering and doing
myself with my right hand. There are three stripes on his right hand sleeve, he is at the very bottom of the page "the spot I remember in my dream
being with the book", and the chalk boards and desk's all are perfect, the exact way I remember in the dream. I love ww2, i've loved it more than
any war since I was 7 when I got Medal of Honor in 1999. Since then i've been a fanatic, and really have felt an emotional attachment to it. The
person I was named after, my father told me before, was his great uncle who served in ww2, graduated and taught at West Point and served as a
"bodyguard" for Dwight D Eisenhower. I remember at the time I liked Ike because of his link with ww2. So I know the dream was very important,
considering I asked the higher forces to send me an amazing, mesmerizing dream. Now I sit and wonder, was this me in a past life? Or could this be the
man I was named after. I think its one of the two. Sorry this is so long, just had to get the details out to cover it properly.
