Is it possible to come back into the same life??

just wondered this?

Is there any way this can happen??

You can come back to the same parents, in the same place & time and get another chance at making a better fist of it??

Has anyone heard of this, it might explain deja vu?

I suppose its similar to Eternal Recurrence

That's an interesting idea. I don't know...
It could end up a bit like Groundhog Day. On the other hand it could be a great experiment!

I would like to go back to the day when I was 15 and said the "F" word in anger to my parents, and turn that one around. They are probably laughing at me now, but still....
Sorry you most amazing people. xx

Totally how I feel

Why do we only truly appreciate our loved ones once they have passed?!

Yes, we often do see more things when they have passed.

But I did manage to actually say to each of them before they passed, that I was grateful and thanked them for what they had done for me. It sounded a bit 'cheesy' at the time, but I had to say those things.

jumping back in time to redo something sounds like Quantum Leap;
but less interesting in your proposal (you'd get super bored really quick i bet).

Deja vu is precognition. For one usally follows the deja vu unfaltering throughout.

So if you could did hit "reset" on your life, why exactly are you doing the same thing over again? That is deja vu.

"Reset" life & do it again. Hollywood, sure [Click 2006]; real life, no.

i liked Edge of Tomorrow (2014), it's plot involved reliving a
day (or two?) over (and over) again; as did Groundhog Day (1993).

my déjà vu experiences haven't been precognitive; just a feeling of
remembrance for an event (and usually ordinary type events at that).

New-Age belief is interesting in that it frees us up to imagine and believe anything and everything. Or if you want to read what the various mystical and occult philosophies have to say on the topic, there are a number of sites with PDF books you can download and read.

If I end up reincarnating into this exact same life, I am going to blow up this entire godforsaken galaxy. Or simply sigh and become a Trappist monk, either one.

I think if you have a lesson to learn and you weren't able to learn it in this current setting, then there's not much use to come back into exactly the same setting. That's like setting yourself up for failure IMO.

I do get what you mean though. So many things you could do over, better... But that's an exercise in acceptance I think. Accepting everything for what it is, mistakes and all. It's humbling.
