Day 26: Choose What You'd Prefer to Be Reincarnated As

I have a very specific memory of my grandpa asking me that very question when I was like 12. I said I didn't know, I'd never thought about it- probably a bird. He said that he would want to come back as a sea otter. I rather like that idea- I get to be with my grandpa and I'd be a sea otter. Those guys look like all they do is swim around and be adorable. They play and have like the thickest blubber ever, so I'd always be warm. I'd like to be a sea otter in my next life. I think it'd be a good life. Some may argue that this is actually moving down in the circle of life, but I think that all creatures are equal (I was raised in California, I'm a bit of a hippy) and sea otters are no better than humans. Plus sea otters don't have to deal with taxes or driving or exams, they have to worry about like food, and finding a suitable mate... well and like predators. But really, then I could come back as something else- like a dolphin!! OOOOOo or a bird of somekind- those finches are pretty damn adorable! OR a chipmunk! all I'd do is run and eat and be cute but annoying to campers. Yes, the next life is going to be grand, I can tell. As long as I'm not some kind of bug, knowing my hatred for spiders thats probably what I'll end up as.
