Reincarnation is something our forefathers believed in, and that is why it feels like it is real to some extent. I can’t say I believed it, and I can’t say I don’t because there is nothing impossible in this universe.
I haven’t seen one or experienced anything called reincarnation before, but I have heard countless stories about it when I was growing up and when I became an adult as well, so with all the stories that I have heard, I kind of believe that reincarnation is real to some extent, but I don’t think it’s something that happens often, so that is why some people believed it while some don’t.
If such a thing happens often, it means all our loved ones are still somewhere living their normal lives, which is not possible. I believe it only happens when someone’s time has not yet come, and by mistake the person died, so he or she reincarnated to fulfill their mission in the world.

There was a movie back then that my mom always played for us; someone died in the movie, and he didn’t give birth before he died, so he reincarnated in another city, got married, and had kids, and when his wife kept disturbing him to take her home, he did, knowing that he would vanish after his wife found out the truth.
That is how our mothers and fathers made us believe that people do reincarnate, but in real life it might be a different story.
Some years back a scenario happened in the market where I and my elder sister used to buy foodstuffs every month end. It happened that we had passed the place going inside the market because the person we wanted to buy something from was inside the market, and there was this man that sold belts at the entrance of the market.
I must have bought a belt from him before because then I loved buying belts a lot, lol, but I am not sure anyway, so we bought something inside the market, and on our way back outside, we saw a crowd at the entrance; people were shouting “Jesus,” but it was a market day, and people do pickpocket on market days, so we thought that was the case.
We walked faster to protect our money and phones from getting stolen, but when we got to where we wanted to take a tricycle to our house, a lady was narrating what happened to the tricycle guy.

She said someone who knew the man selling a belt at the entrance saw him, and immediately she called his name. He vanished into the crowd without walking, and the woman started screaming that he died in the village some years back, which got people’s attention, so everyone started looking around; maybe they would see him hiding somewhere, but they didn’t see him again.
After that day he never showed up at the entrance to sell a belt, and that got me thinking if he truly reincarnated, but if he is still alive, why didn’t he show up again after that day? That’s the question I always asked myself, which made me believe that reincarnation is real, but it doesn’t happen randomly.
