There are specific reasons behind our choosing to experience this unique condition called life. But before I dive into that, it is important to understand why I believe we decided to partake in this human experience to begin with.

At the core of our physical existence, we intuitively know that we are pure consciousness. But consciousness in its purest form is energy, and if we have learned anything about energy, we know it expands. 

By nature, we expand who we are by projecting our energy outward for the purpose of spiritual development and creation. It’s the whole reason why we are all driven in life, to want more, to move forward and upward. But when we are not aware of the nature of our being, we can become psychologically impeded by the circumstances of our lives and are hindered in our ability to effectively use our energies in a positive manner and as a result, we create more suffering for ourselves.

Soul contracts are a very intricate process. It requires that a soul make its pick of willing participants; souls, who will play certain roles in its life and demonstrate certain actions and characteristic behaviors to the development of each soul involved. This is a dual deal in the sense that all participating souls will benefit in one way or another through the actions of one another as a whole.

Soul groups typically consist of family and close associations that have shared experiences in other lifetimes together. Due to the extensive history of incarnations together, these groups of people have extraordinarily strong soul ties with one another and will often take on multiple reincarnations together in order to accomplish the purpose or goal of all individuals collectively. 

And the juice of it is that every soul involved, get to play all the parts, good & bad, both male & female, both child & parent and also the victim & the villain.
