The concept of reincarnation is based on mythological understanding of things that unfold after death. one of the most constant thing in life is death which is the end of every living thing but what if it isn't, what if there is a chance of being reborn as a different person, having a life that differs from the previous one. a new beginning, starting afresh on a blank slate, probably with no memories of the past, free from the guilt, pain and trauma of the past memories. A wise man once said, "a human without memories is a lucky one" I thought about this statement and I wonder, all through human lives we acquire memories of both positive and negative event, which we learn from but these memories can also be burdensome, what if we have the power to choose which memory we are willing to keep or make it all go away by being reborn. These are assumptions and basis of the term reincarnation.
I have come across it in different doctrines and most especially in fantasy movies, life is full of wonders, there has always been some mysterious things that proves to be unexplainable by science no matter how much we try. On earth there are greater forces in place and as old as time itself, beyond what any human could comprehend. the world is governed by humans with limited mindset, anything that is unable to be proven by evidence or fact is considered to be unreal, untrue, unpractical, myth, a fantasy. it is in human nature to doubt or fear the unknown.

It is a tricky question, would I even know what my previous life was like? Based on my understanding of reincarnation, everyone is born new without memories of their past, so even I'm living the same life and making the same mistakes I wouldn't be aware. there are tales of those who are privileged to see glimpses of their previous life as a form of dream, this kind of occurrence is narrated in movies life "Chicago typewriter." So if I were to be reincarnated and I'm aware of the memories of my previous life, wouldn't it be chaotic if everyone has that privilege, wouldn't we be haunted by memories of of our past life?
Let say I do remember, Then that will make the question above possible, if I'm to answer that, sincerely I wouldn't, There are things I could have done differently, that could be more beneficial to my dreams but due to my ignorance I had to make rash decisions based on the knowledge I have at that moment, they say our experience is the reason behind who we are but I will prefer not to have such experiences at all. why experience bad times when there is a opportunity to make decisions that will allow you to smile for the rest of your days.

Yes & No😅, it is quite difficult for me to be specific. Every country in the world have their own share of troubles, challenges and struggles, it might be greater than each other but the fact that it is there doesn't change. is there a country without poor citizens? is there a country without beggars? I have a cousin in Germany, Frankfurt. She is working as a medical assistant in a clinic. She is always complaining about taxes and the fact that she barely have anything left after receiving her salary. we pay taxes here too but it is not so overwhelming.
Is there a country without criminals? every country is battling with there share of insecurities but there is something that is not common, something that doesn't happen in every country, which is Natural disaster e.g earthquake, tsunami, heatwave, landslide e.t.c which does not occur in my country maybe it does it has never been more than flood and erosion, there are a lot of western countries plagued by this natural disasters which I have not heard of in a country such as Nigeria. So yeah I will like to come back here in my next life.
The reason why I said No, is because there are places I have always wished to visit but due to distance and financial constraints I'm unable to go there. which might not be the case assuming I was born there. but the funny thing is I have been living in Nigeria all my life but despite the fact that Nigeria has only 36 states, I have only visited 4 ( Lagos state, Ogun State, Oyo State, Osun State) isn't that hilarious 😂. I lived in Abeokuta for two years and I never visited Olumo rock 😅. which means I might be born in those countries and still not visit those areas I wish to see.

Definitely yes, One of the greatest thing I'm grateful for is my family, the love is overwhelming and in terms of the gender, it is not like I believe in genderism but I believe I will still prefer to remain A male child. the society is cruel towards both gender but it demands too much from the female child in the aspect of marital responsibilities. the man is responsible for providing for the house but can you compare that to child birth and the highest sexual assaults/harassment and abuse is done to the female gender, not to talk of the menstrual cycle pain and discomfort, Being a man might be challenging but being a female is something I can never wish for.

Nothing much, I'm a deep thinker and I will love that to remain but there are somethings I'm unable to do despite wanting it e.g I like music but I can't sing, my vocals is unable 😅, my voice get stressed easily, I will like to know how to sing. I'm terrible at playing any musical instruments, I hate the fact that all I can do in church is clap😂, I used to drum 🥁 a little before it didn't last long before I stopped, I bought a guitar 🎸 to learn, I even got tutorial videos from starstrings01 but I eventually sold the guitar because after months I still couldn't play anything 😅 and my fingers hurt a lot due to the guitar strings, I tried other ways but it didn't work out. my next stop is piano 🎹, hopefully that will work out. lastly I will love to change my handwriting 😂, it is manageable but it could be better, at least as good looking as I'm😂. That will be all🤗.
But Do you think the creator would allow us to have a say in the matter if we were reincarnated 😂😂
