People/firms that only recruit 25 years old?
So older people feel outcast, worthless...

Old people's homes...taking people out of their houses and out of their lives...Seen abroad people over 70 still working happily in their fields, sitting on the market place...

Architects who designed soulless cities...

Junk food manufacturers...

I especially agree with the architect one!!

Can you imagine how nice it would be to "create" a city with soul?? Nice wide sidewalks, parks every few blocks, front porches MANDATORY on every home (with at least 2 rocking chairs).

Why do I feel "old" all of a sudden

School definitely. All year, we've been discussing the symbolism of '"classic" literature--Brave New World, Lord of the Flies, Heart of Darkness, Hamlet, etc. All of these describe the darknesses of human nature and death as an inevitable door we must all enter. The instructor keeps insisting upon it, and asks if anyone is immortal in our class--I keep getting tempted to just raise my hand but as Piscean I am committed to upholding the peace, and only my ego needs it anyway.

Wonder why the teacher asked a question like that...I wonder if they had a reason

That was a very strange question for a teacher to ask.

That's a lot of death peddlers! No wonder most people die.

Such a waste of a good incarnation.
As many are finding out because for some reason a lot are wanting to incarnate in this space/time. Like something BIG is going on

AND finding a long waiting list. I wonder if some will even 'double-up' on a body?

Be careful--you might Uni-versal shift by mistake and find that YOU are doing the stopping!
