Discussion from another forum asked what do you want to be in the next life, excluding homo sapiens.
One selected the bristlecone pine tree because of its longevity, more than 5,000 yrs. of age for pinus longaeva.
Another chose eohippus, a forerunner of the horse, which is surprising given that it was extinct before man came along.
A plurality chose a lovable puppy dog in the belief that they would be readily adopted and pampered by a doting family. (I wouldn't bet the farm on that hope.)
I chose a baby orca safely protected by my family pod of killer whales, until I'm big 'n' bad enough to break away and start my own pod and rule the seas without fear from any other types of sea predators.
