“My need to find out if the children were all right, it was my need. And it was my need left over from when I was Mary. But I had to find out they were all right, I felt (responsibility) for them, um, it was still my job (regardless) of the fact that I've changed as in a different body. It was still my responsibility to make sure that they were all right, to do something for them.”
Today Jenny lives with her husband and two children. At last Jenny says she has found (peace) in her life, the peace that (evaded) her until she travelled to the town of Malahide and walked the streets once again. Is it possible that Jenny knew the (intimate) details of a woman who lived and died before she was born? Critics say it’s more (reasonable) to view Jenny's story as another example of false memory as they (maintain) most claims of reincarnation are. Were Sonny's memories (shaped) by Jenny's impressions? Or were Jenny's recollections (subsequently) inspired by (conversations) with Sonny.
“The big mistake here is just to take the story, is without (probing), and the way that we really do is to try to break the story. And so anybody who claims to have been alive in a previous (incarnation) at a previous time should have a storehouse of knowledge. You know what do people (typically) eat for breakfast? Or whose face was on the most common coin that was used everyday?” The problem the (scientists) say is that the individuals involved in the stories, not to mention the researchers who investigate them are looking for confirmation of their (beliefs) rather than denial. And it’s not hard to find, given the ease with which human memory can be (contaminated).
“In almost all the work I do, on false memories, memory (distortion), the construction of false memories. The people I study, the people I see, they’re people who really believe that they've had these experiences. We're not (dealing with deliberate) liars, we're dealing with something like an honest liar, someone who's, who thinks that's really their past.”
“I would see Jenny's feeling that she had lived before not (necessarily) proving reincarnation, but in some way, the (grace) of God allowing a message to go to that person so that she could come back, gather the family together, (reassure) them that everything was all right, everything was in God's hands.” Sonny Sutton and his five surviving brothers and sisters don't know how to explain Jenny Cockell's (amazing story). Sonny however was in a (unique position) to be able to validate or dismiss her memories. He says they are accurate and that no one else could have known them. Vocabulary: false memory: A false memory is a memory which is a distortion of an actual experience, or a confabulation of an imagined one.
