to heaven. it is my wish to reborn back on earth, more specifically America, and even more specifically Indiana. I want another shot at fame and glory. maybe sports, maybe music, who knows.
just think of it, there is music to be listened to, women to enjoy, money to be spent on all kinds of frivolity…and friends and family to spend time with. I much prefer it here.
I wish to be here for eternity, making improvements on my life each new year.
Neat way of thinking. I too believe in reincarnation. I once had a dream of a woman telling me she was my mother from a past life. But if I could choose I would choose heaven because I would rather live pain free, and close to God.
If I had another shot at life I would stay away from tattoo parlors and I would cherish my body more and gain more knowledge. I would also chose different parents. I didn’t feel loved by my mom growing up. It’s like she never got to know me. Never seemed to really enjoy my company. So that’s what I would change and I would want to be born in a country with low crime rate and be happy and prosperous and close to God.
I just want to be happy, I don’t even have any big ambitions. I’m sure I’ll be more than happy with it if it’s real. Can’t go before my time though, and it’s a long way off, so I don’t bother thinking about it much.
I do believe there is an afterlife (it’s just one of my delusions). My friend says that’s the reason she puts so much effort on relationships - because they’re all she can take with her when she dies. Another person says he wants to live good during this lifetime. I become more spiritual when I think about my cousin or even my parents growing old or ready to pass away. I think what I want to get out of this life is knowledge. Not just book knowledge but knowledge about people, how to deal with grief and other life stepping stones, etc. I somehow feel that working (especially as a tutor), going to support group, talking to people, reading, experiencing life’s different stages, and looking at art will help me gain insight. When I die, I’d like to reunite with my loved ones. But before then, I hope to have a role in life.
I believe in reincarnation, too. I wonder if we always come back again as humans or if we can come back as other animals. I would like to be a raven or a wolf…I definitely don’t want to come back as a cockroach!
I want a place that is kind of like Earth but with a super rugged body, that all my loved ones go to as well. Also, if you manage to die there, you have a choice of going back there with all your memories intact, in a premade body of your choosing.
Being reborn on Earth with a memory wipe sounds like a waste of time.
I am still tempted by the “American Beauty” hypothesis that we get to see our life timelessly at our death, which, if we had lead a bad life would be endless bad, or conversely endlessly good, and either way, in the same place as always.
I don’t believe in reincarnation or an afterlife, so i have to focus on the here and now, and make the best of what i’ve been dealt. To be perfectly honest, i don’t believe i have much to complain about. Sure the Schizophrenia sucks, but it is largely under control, and this has enabled me to live a life as close to the one i want as possible.
