One day you are walking harmlessly when you somehow catch this old man who falls from above. As a reward for helping him.......This man who turns out to be a shaman.......Grants you a chance to choose what you want to be in Your next life. Do you believe him?
And if you do, What whould you choose to be in your next life?
I am so sorry for posting two times and I don't even think I posted in the right place.
My computer froze for a second and after all the clicking this is what happened.
I'm so sorry.
Well to anwer your question, I would ask for a life of contentedness and purpose. I suppose the being content would lie in having a purpose (instead of wandering about looking for oneself)
Hmmm.......It's funny that people are choosing mostly Human lives.......I never said you had to be human in your next life.......I was hoping for more creativity.
But.....Eh......My thoughts are not all thoughts...and vice Verca.
I wanna be a gay man in my next life. Not a feminine gay man but more of a manly gay man, u know?
i would like to come back with as a peerson who can be able to chang tings for the good of all
wow this IS a good .. DEEP.. question
let me start off apologizing for how long this post is probably gonna be LOL
first of all.. yes i would believe him because .. well hekk the man just FELL FROM THE CLEAR BLUE SKY lol... but on many different levels and for many different reasons .. i WOULD believe him if he looked me in the eye and made that offer..
and i am too analytical i guess lol i would be asking all kindsa questions before giving an answer .. ONE of which would be ... in the next life . would i have the ability to remember THIS LIFE ..
if his answer was yes... then my answer would definently be .. i want to be an immortal.. and if choice was given as to what kind then definently vampire ... though i would be saddened at the deaths of loved ones i hold dear now of course... there would always be new generations to follow and watch over...
if his answer were NO and i would NOT remember this life... then my choice would be harder.... i would be tempted to still ask for immortality yes .. but i would also be tempted to ask for just a plain, simple, HAPPY existence... this soul deserves that just ONCE ...
I do not beleive him, I shrug him off as senile as I say "surprise me" in passing.
Would I believe? Probably not, but I don't think that would stop me from saying that I'd probably like to be a cat .. not a big cat in the jungle or anything like that .. but a plain old house cat ... I say this as I feel the warmth of my cats body laying on my cold feet ... to live the life of a plain old house cat I think would be divine ... you start out as a cute little kitten that most everyone coddles and holds and plays with and as you grow they (your human family) just bestow love upon you, they feed and water you, they play with you, and stroke you ... and all you do is lay around all day, and give y'r owner love back ... now who could not want a life like that?????
I would ask for.....my own island....far far away from so called civilization.
why was he falling? i would need you know that before i determined if he was a shman.
i would be a wolf. they are fast and very agile and hold a lot of repspect and fear in their ecosystem. either that or something that could fly or swim. i love that feeling of being suspended either in air or water.
i would ask not to come back, ive been at this far too long
1- I would not believe him
2- If I would, I guess Ichoose to be me again.
Sorry, but, what is the deep question here?
If I did believe him, which i really don't, i would ask to be a tiger...a fierce warrior..
i'd probably choose to come back as a shark
i don't care which
;]
Lets say I beleive him..(as I beleve in shaman so its good ) I would humbly ask him to direct it so that my next life would be the one I deserve and the one that would help and benefit the more people possible.
If he falls down from the sky and says he's a shaman, well, probably I would believe him....
And I would ask to be a vampire... again, but now Immortal...
I would belive him just incase it was true, and i would ask to be in my next life a true movie type vampire...
even if i didnt beleave him id still say. N id have to replay to me the same person as i am right now. just with a different name and id like to me prittier.
i don't believe him, but i say i would like to be a therepy dog
probably ask to come back as myself but a better person
if i were to become an animal: black cat
if i were to become an immortal being: vampire
if i were to becom a human: id like to relive my current life with different life choices
if i were a plant: an elegant rose plant
ok im getting outta line but hey there are soo many choices out there!
what tree would you be Karnstein?
I'd like to be a GREEK Goddess
I'd like in my next life to be how I feel on the inside all the time instead of just the iside part.
Apocapus...you asked this question.. what you wish to come back as?
I'd like my own island with certain pets and animals and comfortable abode - might as well continue being alone but this time comfortable and stress free!!!
Well.......If I had to come back....Maybe I'd come back as a horse.
Probably a black one.....I don't care which gender......As long as I get to race through the prairie......Wind flowing through my mein.
If that happened to me I ask him to send me back in time for my next life to a time where people were scared the most and yet lived in the most pieceful times the times of the roman empire to live a live back than would be prefect for me.
i would believe him and ask him if i could go back in time for my next life and have him put me as an upperclassman in midevil europe
I do not know if i would believe him but i would say i wish to come back as a something beautiful and useful.
WOW.. this is a question. I would not want to change anything and I won't believe someone that just feel from the sky. With my luck, they would fall right on my head and kill me...
I am a very open-minded person, so I would probably believe him.
and I honestly don't know what I would choose to be....
I would believe him..and then ask to be me but taller and braver.
i think i would like to come back as a healer, and able to read tea leaves better, and no bipolar it sucks big time
I agree with HellsGuardian69... I too have been doing this far to long. I'd prefer a nice long break and a big chocolate brownie for completion.
I think I'd like to come back as either a Hawk (the freedom of flying and feeling the wind beneath your wings, ahhhh) or possibly a healer (I have my reasons).
I believe I would just set him down and be on my way... either that, or I would ask him if he could just make sure I would be able to be a more influential figure so that I could do more to better the world, or at the very least my own society. It all depends though, because even though I'm still young I'm sure that the life I lead will be fulfilling enough for me.
I would believe him for win or lose either i come back in the flesh or my spirit will be here. I would still ask to come back as a shape shifter to roam the world in different forms would be a cool thing to me.
I would probably try to keep him because I think the elderly are adorable and as for the next life I would wish to no longer exist.
I would tell him that I want to be an immortal vampire in my next life and I want to remember this life forever.
As much as immortality sounds serene and very desirable, I do not think it is all that it is cracked up to be... I'm still skeptical about my feelings of immortality. However, I would like to be some sort of savior in ways if that makes any sense... be it someone who saves peoples lives or one that kills evil in order to save good. If I had the choice, I would ask to be able to live longer than a mortal could so that I could continue my works , see how the world changes through the centuries, and to learn as much as possible.
to not be selfish I would ask for one week
of any month in a year where all the fighting would stop. Where if any blood what shed that person was blinked out of existance.
A week of nutrality. No wars. no death. No drive by shootings and no injustice.
sounds good to me..
Rikku185 I do not think that to be selfish at all. I would enjoy to have not just one month, but multiple months where there is no blood shed of innocent human beings and there could be peace. :)
Im not sure i would believe him unless he proved to me that he was a shaman. If he proves himself to be truthful then i think i would want to either come back as an animal thats more like a predator since in this life ive been the "rug" to step on or i might even choose to not even come back as anything....Im indecisive at times what can i say?
Well I would like to see proof just for my own curiosity then ask to be a siberian tiger or something exotic like that... had enough time as a human so would like something different.
i would be veryyyy weary of someone saying they will grant me a wish...exspecially if it is someone falling out of the sky.
I would kind of hope that I would believe him, especially if I witnessed him falling out of the sky with no logical explanation.
If I did, then I would probably chose to be an eagle in my next life. I have always admired their beauty and behavior. Plus I love nature and feel at home when surrounded by it.
I would choose to be me...
What would want start over , that way I would make many better choices in my life......
if i did accept the wish I would wish to be myself not something I am not, I rather take things by chance let nature takes it course.
Sleen makes a good point.
It would be great to be yourself and start over knowing what you know now.
Life doesn't work like that though.
sigh
I think it would be the whole "falling out of the sky" thing that would compel me to believe him. As for comming back? Maybe the oppisite sex? That would be different. But definatly human. Preferably to an upperclass family. That would be different too.
I think that I would choose to lead a happy productive life with meaning.
well If I had to choose and be different then a human .. I would choose an animal .. So I could live free in the great wild ..
I'm not sure to be honest. What I would wish to be isn't supposed to be around in the world at the present moment in time. I would either wish to be an Elf or a Dragon. Of course, I wouldn't deviate from the mythical capabilities. Or maybe a Hawk.. which does deviate. But still. I'm not sure I could come up with one thing to become. lol
nice deep question here dude. i would probably ask some questions and require some answers first of all then decide f i believed him from that.
If i was to come back would like to be either a bat to fly off into the darkness when i wish to or an eagle so i could spread my wings and fly away.
sure id believe him... and id want to be a immortal black panther
I'd want to be a person with superhuman powers, not unlike those of Superman (I wouldn't complain about a little invulnerability)
DUDE! This man has Fallen out of the sky !!! Why would people still not believe him?
Yes, I would believe him, and I would ask to be either a cat or dog living in a nice home so that all I would ever have to worry about is eating and sleeping.
no i don't believe him, and i will probably be a jaguar in my next life
Honestly I wouldn't believe him... And I don't believe in "another life" I just think, when you die, you die. That's it.
I would believe him and wish to have a life full of love, and be able to help others.
LovesEternalDeath lol, you are very cute sweetie :) Yes that does indeed seem like a nice afterlife haha. No work, all play lol.
Well, for a start him falling from the sky would probably provoke me to ask him "why have you you just broken my leg?" and then make some sarcastic remark about extreme precipitation in the viscinity.
I don't believe anyone has the power to make me anything but myself- so I would probably tell him to stop wasting his life falling out of trees onto innocent bystanders, and make his own existence worthwhile.
First of all, I would believe him...because I wouldn't want to take the risk of being something or someone other than what I want.
Second of all, if I could choose to be an Air Elemental, so I can control the air/wind.
i would like to be a kitten that stayed a kitten and never grew up so i would always be loved...
I think I would ask to be myself again and know everything I know now........
Get a complete do over...
well i would and i would pick to be a soldier again and be a good one at that
This probably sounds weird, but I would ask to be a haunted house. It would be fun to scare people.
I don't believe him, tell him to be more careful next time and I walk away.
Whether I believed him or not, I'd give it a go. After all, how often do old men rain down?
I'd choose for my next life, the wisdom to KNOW deceit when I encountered it, not just sense it. To know it and its flavor...a kindness, a selfishness, etc...
i agree with Joli, would rather know first hand on deceit and lies..come back as myself but better than i am now..to know things before i let my heart get caught up
Well, by design, if you can recognize deceit, truth becomes clear. That's the value for me.
A tiger, maybe a croc or alligator, definately some sort of preditor.
I might believe him depending on the way he looks at me, talks to me, and acts around me.
And even if I didn't, I'd still tell him because I'm the type of person who believes that anything could happen if the world wants it to happen.
As for my next life, I would like to be like me but a little better. I would want to be someone nice, dark, mysterious, beautiful, and I would like A LOT more opportunities in my next life.
i would want to live in a quite place perhaps by myself or with someone idk/as what i am now(vampire) and i would want to live near or in a forest(in a house of course) and not just roam the world.i would be quite content living in that kind of place.
I'm pretty content with my current life except for a few things. Could the shaman possibly bring back someone from the dead?
Saena, I wish that was possible *HEHE* That would be something to achieve that would make me a rich man. *BOL*
Lol, oh well, then I'd just politely refuse the offer and be on my way.
If I could be anything I wanted then I would choose to be a dragon. They are so beautiful and I would love to be able to fly.
If I had to choose some thing more "real" I would ask to be a wild cat of any kind. Or maybe a pampered house cat. lol
I would want to come back as Jeffree star.
:D
Haha jk.
But hey i always wondered what it'd be like in his shoes...
Yea, I'd believe him. What could it hurt, if he's full of it nothing happens anyway.
I think I'd come back as a dolphin, theyr'e smarter than us anyway.lol
for me i would choose to be a butterfly. they are so beautiful and free from so many things in life. i wouldn't care that i would only live for a short time, i would be happy that i was free for that short time.
Heh, I'm quite slight. I don't believe I could catch a man who fell from the sky.
Though, I would ask to be an owl.
I would ask to stay gone. I wouldn't want to come back. When I die, i have seen far enough for me to want to see anymore. I would be happy with just dying and staying in the after life, or whatever happens.
