“I'm every human being who ever lived?”

This short story made me remember this: “Well, if reincarnation is real, there must be some kind of Soul Factory, otherwise there wouldn't be enough souls for all the people!”. That was me as a child trying to figure out the whole thing.

I enjoyed the story and the spirituality behind it but, seriously, I really hope this is not what happens when you die. I mean, all the immensity of the universe just for one? A fetus playground? No way, Mr. Weir. I rather stick to:

“Death is just another path, one that we all must take.”

Thank you, Gandalf!
