I kind of came by my thoughts after years of trying to figure out why our souls were put in these imperfect bodies for life on earth. It seemed if we start out as spiritual beings and end up there, why the trip here in-between? So I figured it was a way for our souls to make connections so we don't float alone in a endless void.

And it kind of explained for me what happens to terribly horrible people like serial killers because they deliberately cut the connections that bind them to others and that would be the greatest 'sin' in my little afterworld scenario.

Also, it helps me deal with the death of loved ones because they will be there with me and I've held onto that for comfort. Plus it helps me be a better person in this life and I always need help with that!
