questions
I expect along the way I'll have many questions which need to be answered. Here are a few that I'm working on at the moment.
- Names?
- Between lives?
- Should vehicle periods be limited?
What should be the names of the main characters and should they retain there names? Since these individuals can be either male or female my first thought was that I should give them gender neutal names; Terri-Terry, Jo-Joe.
My second thought was that it might be difficult if I did that with all of the names, so perhaps it would be okay to simply keep the same first character for each name; thus the same character in one lifetime could be George and in another Greg. Of course, this might be too confusing.
It seems to me that between lives we reflect on the lessons that we have learned during a particular life and then determine which upcoming life would be best for us in order to learn are next lessons. I'm not sure that will work as each chapter—or possibly the whole book—would then cover only one lifetime.
I would think it better—or at least less confusing—if at the end of each chapter a lesson was learned. The questions then would be how to include this “reflective” period and what to call it.
I expect that we need to learn our physcial lessons—or at least most of them—before our emotional lessons, etc. So one thought would be to set time periods where are physical lessons are learned, then a different period for emotional, etc. Thus physical lessons might be in a time period between 500 B.C. and 300 A.D.
It’s a thought. Perhaps not a good one.
are welcome to these questions—or even just general comments.
