Can people have past lives?

Why do people believe in past lives and afterlife? In fact, when you reach a certain age, especially in your sixties and seventies, and know that your life span is not long, you will take the initiative to believe in the afterlife after passing the customs, because everyone is afraid of death and would rather believe that the soul can turn in the afterlife after death, and so on. Actually, it's just psychological comfort

I don't think there is any afterlife. There is no previous life. A person's life is only once, only a few decades. And then it passed. Living is the real meaning of life, and when they die, they have nothing.
