Prior to each life, the soul decides which experiences it needs in order to grow and 'find itself'. Life after life after life = experience after experience after experience. Experiences lead to acquired knowledge. Acquired knowledge leads to wisdom which leads to compassion. And compassion leads to love ... which God is ... LOVE.

It is not so succinct to me.
I don't understand what is going on when you have all the cards, (we do) but to see from others eyes - to see yourself that way, means you don't know what the cards hold?
I come from the position that we have access to all knowledge and only the questions we have are what counts.

I'm not entirely sure what you're asking... you've phrased it in a way that I'm having difficulty understanding. I think the disconnect may be in the phrase "However, your only indication of other-selves’ cards is to look into the eyes.". When they are using the term "other-self", that is a term they use to simplify the paradox of this reality, which is that while we are all one, we appear to be separate. So, "other-self" simply means any other person you may encounter.
We have access to all the cards, but each individual only holds certain cards in his or her hand at any given time. Most people don't remember exactly what game we are playing, which leads to them playing cards in a somewhat chaotic fashion at time. Perhaps individuals such as Jesus held many more cards in their hand and also remembered exactly what the game was and exactly how to play like a pro. I suppose one could say that Jesus was the Stu Ungar of this reality, if we are to use the poker analogy.
