Not much of a chance to be that in that life, for sure.

Do you think we can come back in another live form? Say a butterfly, a dog, a tree... or is the the only one we get. If we come back do we bring baggage and just don't remember, do we come back to get it right? Well..I've often said that I must have been a pretty bad person in a former life.

Because bad stuff keeps coming my way. Like someone is trying to see if I can manage to get it right this time around. * shrugs *

We are already in 'eternal life' We just get stuck in the idea that it starts after we 'die' We're already here.

What, if some day or night a demon were to steal after you into your loneliest loneliness and say to you: "This life as you now live it and have lived it, you will have to live once more and innumerable times more"Would you not throw yourself down and gnash your teeth and curse the demon who spoke thus?Or have you once experienced a tremendous moment when you would have answered him: "You are a god and never have I heard anything more divine"

I believe that we are unique, eternal beings.

I'm not sure we come back as another life form, nor do I steadfastly believe in reincarnation. However, I have a strange fascination for paintings depicting a beach scene from the 1920s-30s, where women are wearing corsets and carrying parasols, and the men are wearing tophats and derbys. Every time I see such a painting I just stand there, transfixed. Ditto for rainy, Parisienne street scenes at night. Fascinating, but unsettling. If I could come back as any animal, I would want to come back as a coyote (a survivor), or as a cougar...no, no, a real cougar!

Like " Well...ok then " Well..think about it. That demon came to you during your loneliest of lonely times, but the demon doesn't specify that this is how you are going to feel for the entirety of this and your next lives. I see no reason to ' gnash my teeth and curse the demon ' nor would I see reason to consider it a God. If the life you are living now is the one that you would have to live innumerable times, then it's really not that big a deal because you are used to dealing with what you have lived through. Now if the Demon said that you next lives would be 1000 times better or worse...then the reaction would probably be completely different.
