WHAT WOULD YOU BE?



I'm A BIRD! Do you believe in reincarnation? I have mixed feelings. OK! let's think about this. If I died and went to Heaven, hopefully I didn't go to the other place, what would I like to return to the earth as an animal, another person, something in nature? I love birds. I would be a red cardinal or a Blue Jay. I love the bright colors and feel very well dressed. I could fly with ease(no more air planes)When I'm flying, I have an open window to the world around me. To be able to see flowers in bloom, to be able to watch humans below who might be playing with their children, to see humans cutting grass. Being a bird, I would be able to make beautiful sounds that are pleasant to the ears. Now the downside, when it rained, I might catch a cold as the trees don't give much shelter,and there are no vacant birdhouses. I have to eat some creatures for food. That big Tabby cat continues to try to make me his play thing or worse. So, now do I really want to be a bird?Let me think on that. What would you come back to earth if possible?

  1. I think I must have been a bear or some other animal that hibernates during the winter and thrives beautifully in the hotter summer. Cold weather and I just don't agree. And I tend to go into a human-form of hibernation when the weather turns to cooler weather.....like 60 degrees or below.
    Great question, Rose.

  2. That is a beautiful blue Jay. Being as my name is Robyn, I can't help but think about being a bird. It's kind of a fun thought.

  6. I am totally with Gerry.
    I do not believe in reincarnation, and I would not want to leave Heaven to come back to earth! :)

  7. I completely do NOT agree with re-incarnation and sure wouldn't want to come back from Heaven to be a bird.... Anyway, if I it were true and I had the choice I'd come back as a human again because I don't believe animals go to heaven when they die... so if something like reincarnation were true I'd gladly live out a human life over and over for each one day in heaven... but like I said, I don't believe in it at all.

    However, if I were born as a bird in the first place, I'd probably choose a bald eagle. They always look so free flying over us... Not as skittish and startled as all the other birds. (Except the crows, they aren't startled easily either... but comparing the eagle and crows I see it means were talking about a diet of fresh fish vs. roadkill....)

  9. I don't believe in reincarnation but your post is cute and I think I would come back as one of your dogs! I know I would get treats...a soft bed...nice humans to take care of me...and I know without a doubt that animals go to heaven...another story for another time!

  11. I think I'd like coming back as a dragon fly -the ones with the long gowns. I would hang around sipping sweet flowery nectar all day and fly off when there's danger and would never, ever have to go to work or where a body shaper ever again. Sweet.

  12. Very 'open' minded & sweet post, Rose! I don't know one way or the other YET, but I do know you would be a beautiful bird! I think I'd like to be a cat! They have it pretty easy and get lots of attention, if they want. :-)
    Have a Wonderful weekend, Rose!!!
    Many Hugs,

  13. When I get to Heaven, I'm not leaving, so I don't believe in reincarnation. But just for fun..... I thought about the bird thing, because I'm terrified of heights, but I wish I weren't. There's no way a bird is scared of heights. It would be so freeing! But then I thought about eating worms...couldn't do it! My pick would have to be some type of herbivore! Maybe a giraffe? I could still conquer the height issue and I think they're vegetarian. :)
    This was a cute post!

  14. Hi Rose! I love this post! It's so funny because when I was a little girl, I used to think about what it would be like to be a bird! And cardinals have always been my favorite, from their beautiful color, to their regal heads, and of course, their beautiful chirps. Who really knows about the whole reincarnation thought? It's fun to think about, anyway!

  17. I, too, don't believe in reincarnation, and plan to stay in Heaven, but for fun, I would either want to be a well loved horse or a well loved dog, I think.
