yes, but I alchemically transmuted it to lead, then I used the lead for bullets which I then sold to the chinese government so they could further opress their peoples.
Ka-ching!

Exactly, someone explained the notion to you and it felt true, because it satisfied your sense of identity. The feeling has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not a soul exists or whether or not it is "old", simply that it is a notion that satisfies someone's need for a super identity.

when i told him my name also which is(i shouldnt be doing this but) Jah'di Zurishada Levi, he said "that's a powerful name, god has a mission for you" and this also inspired me a whole lot.
I'm sure it did inspire you, and I'm sure it felt great having someone say something like that, but it does not in any way validate the notion of an "old soul" beyond some feeling. `

its real and you obviously do not understand what im getting at, but im just glad that people like soy know what im talkin about.
How do you know what I understand and what I do not? That which I choose to express, even if it questions and negates points of your own, does not represent my understanding.

if you cant except my point of view and how i say things, and you just want to try to degrade and express negative thoughts towards me then that your problem.
Yeah, that would be my problem, if that is what I was interested in doing. You are asserting that the notion of an "old soul" is real, and I'm all like, please, brother, that's just your abstract concept that you adopt because it makes you feel good about yourself.
Expressing alternate points of view is only a problem if others cannot handle it, and this is the forum that is intended for such behavior.
Quote:
do what you want but i know what im saying is real, now be gone
Yes, I will be gone!
How dare I offend the presence of an old soul, surely I am not an old soul myself. I wonder if the criteria for instantly knowing someone else is an old soul is that they agree with everything one says?

so that
So that? Sorry, I thought you might have issued a complete thought... 
 Peace.

This post alone makes it worth it to have taken you off of ignore.

People that are interested in "higher planes" and all those other new-age fancy linguistic predications - are not old souls.
They are children, simply because they still havent gotten the fucking point.
The fucking point.
The fucking-point.
The fuckingpoint.
Old souls are pornstars.

Personally, from my perspective, spirituality involves bringing awareness within one's experience, which correlates with directly perceiving reality as it presents itself. This encompasses removing abstract thoughts that serve as obstructions of one's direct, divine experience of life itself.
Lofty notions of being an old soul, the truth of such supported only by feelings of those who are satisfied by considering themselves as such, are seperative of one and one's spirituality... its a detriment to one's ability to effectively navigate reality.
 Peace.
