I don't believe in reincarnation. (However I loved the movie Defending Your Life!) If I did come back as something I would want to be a pampered cat like my kitty, Madeleine. I think it would be divine to sleep in the sun each day. Meow and get fed. And just snuggle up to someone when I wanted my head massaged.
Originally Posted By beamerdog I also believe in the possibility of reincarnation. I would like to believe that our souls have a chance to learn and grow out of a realization and further understanding of our mistakes. I always say that I must have been really bad in a former life.
Originally Posted By RAM1984 I have always felt there is something eternal about the human "soul" so reincarnation seems a good choice to me. Though I have never felt that I really believe in it I often say, "I must have been such and such in a past life," when I act or feel a certain way. I would like to be a Giant Sequoia some day just to have a real long break and time to meditate.

However Mele scared the life out of me when she mentioned we could spend eternity re-united with the same people over and over again! YIKES!!!!! Apart from my darling husband Barry THIS IS JUST NOT AN OPTION with my family or HIS! hahahahahaha
Originally Posted By Labuda I think reincarnation sounds nice. I kind of like what my husband believes, which is that in each incarnation you're a bit more wise than your last.
Originally Posted By DVC_dad I do not believe in reincarnation. If I were given a choice to come back as anything, I would certainly choose to come back as a human.
Originally Posted By smeeeko I'm not sure about reincarnation, but I do believe in karma, and soulmates.. so maybe we do come back again.. to fix things we messed up.. If I could come back I guess I'd come back as my cat, Alexander.. he is sooo incredibly spoiled by me! (but then if I'm my cat, who'd be spoiling me?? hmmm) Anyway.. do good and live in what happiness you can find. =) I think eventually it does come back to you, whether you do good or bad.. in the end.

Now, if I were reincarnated, I'd like to come back as a Hindu so I wouldn't be so annoyed how wrong I was about the who reincarnation thing.
