Don't know. Don't particularly need to know (not that I could). The point is, do I or do I not participate in that cataclysmic event? I happened to be in California when the tsunamis hit the far east. Meaning that I (on a higher level) did not choose to die in that fashion. I can, instead, have chosen to die by a building falling on me when the big earthquake eventually hits. Doesn't matter, does it? If you look at life as an eternal adventure, what does it matter the methods we choose to move from room to room, from lifetime to lifetime?
I agree with you...my way of thinking isn't for everyone, and I'm okay with that. I can't say your point of view is wrong, and in fact it is as valid as my own. Mine is simply a belief system that gives me great comfort...knowing (or at least believing) that I have some control over what goes on in my life. I look around me and I see evidence (yes, I am aware, it is not proof) to support my point of view. I offered it here because I thought my particular perspective might give someone else a little hope, too.
Cheers to you, Renie.
