If you were reborn, what would you want to be?

If you were reborn, what would you want to be?

1) Would you want to be human again, and know what life and death is, and all the struggles, pains & sufferings?
2) Or would you want to be an animal and not know anything else than just survive? if yes what animal would you want to be?
3) If you want to be reborn as human what thing would you want to do that you regret not doing in your first life, or what would you want to improve on?
4) If you were reborn as an animal, what animal (or insect if any) would you want to be? & why?

  • Human, but I'd like past lives to come back fragmented over time.

    Sometimes, I wonder if that's happening or if I'm just broken. Well, I know it's the latter, but it can be both... Right? Right? Guys? ....

    Seriously though. It would be neat to experience life again that way. I don't think I would want to remember everything... or even anything at all for the first 15-20 years. I would want to grow up and be a functioning member of society and fit in somewhat. There's always a generational gap that would make remembering everything and "being grown up already" just a hindrance on life. As much as I've embraced technology and the culture that goes along with it, I never truly fit in with kids because I grew up without most of it. Actually calling friends on the phone? Calling back if you missed them because they didn't have an answering machine? That list is almost endless.

    Belly rubs, nappping, eating, and humans doing stuff 4 me don't have to worry about anything B)

  • Totally agree with the fragmented memory thing.

  • yeah, that's what often comes to my mind when i see cats. heck even stray cats get decent food nowadays. and they just wait by the doorways and don't mind even if your house is infested with mice/rats. smh

  • i always thought i was a male in my before-life. i get some fragments in my dreams

    Totally agree with the fragmented memory thing.

  • a japanese dude like kazuma kiryu then maybe i can watch anime and liaten to japanese music without people thinling its wierd

  • I think most cats in the world have shitty lives because they breed like fuck and are considered pests in other countries, they get gross infections in their eyes, cat aids, tortured by psychopaths and even eaten, oh yeah and fear makes the meat tender so theres that.

  • I think no matter what life your born into you will suffer a great deal, suffering and pain are needed to feel true happiness even if you dont feel happiness in that lifetime.

  • Being reborn's the worst thing I can imagine. I'd just want to stay as myself.

  • I've always jokingly said that I identify as an empanada. So, I guess that.

  • You just ruined my dreams in becoming a cat one day

    I think most cats in the world have shitty lives because they breed like fuck and are considered pests in other countries, they get gross in

  • I actually can't think of an animal with a life that is both interesting and free of pain, so I would have a hard time choosing. Good thing we have adventure games where we can experience different lives without it actually mattering that much.

  • I'm happy with my life, achievements, friends and family

    I'd choose to be myself again human

    I have many faults and bad stuff happen in my life

    But life is fun experience learning to overcome and grow

    I love life

    Or a dragon there badass

  • Genetic memory retention...it is a thing. Also it reminds me of Cloud Atlas.

    name @Squishy Cthulhu ....loves to ruin dreams....well I will be damned....that name fits.

  • Definitely a cat I’m jealous of mine because he doesn’t have to deal with the usually crappy human life. Gets food treats and can just sleep and piss people off all day without consequences.

  • is it true they have 9 lives?

  • people are only happy when it's their birthday, anniversary or something like that. some people even skip their birthdays,etc. And the rest of their lives is plain sorrow, pain, suffering, and a bore especially if that person is ugly or disabled, that eve makes it harder to live. at least cats/animals don't know that and just live by and it's a bliss animals don't know that they will die someday in their lives.

  • isn't that a food?

  • anyone want to be a tree? They say trees live for thousand of years.

  • But then you would have to deal with being cut down birds shitting on you sitting out in the rain and standing in the same location everyday that would get boring.

  • If I was reborn I would want to be reborn as human again but next time a woman instead of a male that would be one thing I want changed

    there are some things from my life i would keep for starters i love video games, movies, tv shows, anime, comics, video game magazines, regular cartoons, smoking cigarettes and e cigarettes, roleplaying stories on the computer those I would not change those are a big part of my life I enjoy

    but what I would change hopefully in that next life actually having a good job and being rich and actually married to a beautiful woman yes I prefer to be a lesbian I said it and dont care but as far as jobs go I always wanted to be an actor for movies and tv shows or voice characters in video games or cartoon and anime shows but it was never ment to be

    hopefully in my next life I will get to be all that and a model a regular model and a smoking model but of course they would call me an actress instead of an actor but you get what I mean and as a woman in my next life I hope to be beautiful and skinny also smart

    thats another thing i would be real smart in my next life cause in this life i am not smart in this life i had a lot of disadvantages in this life I wasnt very smart I barely graduated high school i was from average to below average a doctor once said I was completely retarded and a psychiatrist said I was just a little slow with add attention deficit disorder I would say in some way they are both right I am not going around and making sounds that they do but I know I am not all here either physically i am going to be 33 but mentally I dont know how old I act I have at best maybe a mind of a teen worst case have a mind of a kid I dont really know

    in the next life hopefully less fears cause I have to many in this one also cause of how I am in this life I don't have a job because of how I am I am not really able to

    cause in this life other than having attention deficit disorder I am very shy more sensitive than a guy should be I bruise easy I cry easy happy movies sad movies or around people if they make me cry I dont like getting yelled at that makes me cry I cant stand pressure that makes me cry I am afraid to drive also hate it with a passion I am afraid of the dark I always got have a night light on or tv or both I am afraid of heights afraid of sharp objects dont like guns also to add I am immature dont act my age I have bad memory and forget things easy especially even after I just played a video game I would forget what I did even if I played that game a 20 times or a 100 for an example I wouldn't remember what I did or go to beat it and even if I just read a book I couldn't explain nothing about what Ijust read cause of all this I still live at home I can't really take care of myself someone will always have to take care of me cause of all my problems I am on disability social security and whoever watches over me or take care of me would have to also keep an eye on the money cause I wouldn't be able to all of this makes my life miserable and Ihope in my next life to be able to have a better life and less complications and actually have a relationship

  • a fucking nuke made by the koreans

  • If I was reborn and I had a choice of what I'd be, I'd seriously consider being a tree.

    Trees watch over the land and can live for a very long time and so be able to observe how the world changes around them... I find that fascinating.
    Trees hold so much wisdom.

    ... Or a cat.

    If I was reborn I would like to be... A bird. I would fly majestically, see the whole world from above... And knowing my luck I would be eaten alive by a fucking cat or even worse by a fucking spider if I were reborn in Australia... So yeah, I hope that reincarnation doesn't exsist because I don't want to be eaten by a fucking Puss in Boots...

    I'd totally be a tardigrade. They are the most badass creatures in this world! Just check this out:

    Tardigrades are able to survive in extreme environments that would kill almost any other animal. Extremes at which tardigrades can survive include those of:

    Temperature – tardigrades can survive:
    A few minutes at 151 °C (304 °F)
    30 years at −20 °C (−4 °F)
    A few days at −200 °C (−328 °F)
    A few minutes at −272 °C (−458 °F; 1 K)

    Pressure – they can withstand the extremely low pressure of a vacuum and also very high pressures, more than 1,200 times atmospheric pressure. Tardigrades can survive the vacuum of open space and solar radiation combined for at least 10 days.

    Dehydration – the longest that living tardigrades have been shown to survive in a dry state is nearly 10 years.

    Radiation – tardigrades can withstand 1,000 times more radiation than other animals.

    Outer space – tardigrades are the first known animal to survive in space. In September 2007, dehydrated tardigrades were taken into low Earth orbit on the FOTON-M3 mission carrying the BIOPAN astrobiology payload. For 10 days, groups of tardigrades were exposed to the hard vacuum of outer space, or vacuum and solar UV radiation. After being rehydrated back on Earth, over 68% of the subjects protected from high-energy UV radiation revived within 30 minutes following rehydration, but subsequent mortality was high; many of these produced viable embryos.

    Tardigrades are one of the few groups to have survived Earth's five mass extinctions.

    Also they're kinda cute.

  • something with a lifespan ranging from 2 days to a week

  • Hurricane Melton sounds cool

  • Damn that is quite a thing to say, I don't really know how to respond as besides being a fairly effeminate, shy guy we seem to be opposites of character.

    In any case, my problem is the opposite, I'm reliable, hard-working and intelligent, yet I waste my life working for the sake of other people to the point where I'm miserable and unhappy, but I'm stoic and despite being pretty much the nicest (I will help anyone that asks for help, not that I can't say no, in fact, I'll most likely say no but then proceed to help anyway and not only do I ask for nothing in return I actually get offended if I'm offered something), of course my attitude and character is foul despite my good intentions and my willingness to help.

    In any case I can't relate to what you feel at all but if you need to talk I'd be willing to.

  • Reborn as Sofia vergara's inner thigh.

  • Indeed, though I more or less mean I don't wish to live forever and if death is unavoidable I may as well be at peace with it.

    Besides what makes me who I am are my experiences so a reborn version of myself would hardly be considered me, for example even if I am unhappy about my career or lack thereof, in this case, I am happy about the kind of person that I am, I know I'm the kind of person that stops to help when there's someone in trouble, that buys a meal for a random homeless person and even the kind of person that goes into a fire to stop it even if no one is in immediate danger, but I also know I haven't always been like that and when I was younger I did many a bad thing that not only did I not regret but I actually enjoyed and I know that I could easily have turned extremely different were it not for certain events that happened that allowed me to make some right choices against my will and that it even took months to realize these were the correct moral choices.

    So basically any version of me without my experiences isn't really me and therefore is of little consequence to me since at the moment I lose my experiences I cease to exist.

    Happy thoughts

  • i watched a video about it in youtube. they say it only can live upto 1 year?
