Reincarnation defined
#WritcoStoryPrompt111
If you believe in reincarnation, who would you choose as your next life form if you had the chance? But if you don't believe in it, explain why.

I'm not exactly sure if I believe in reincarnation or not. I mean a part of me does and a part of me doesn't. The part of me that doesn't believe in it is due to some of my other spiritual beliefs. As an individual I'm definitely not religious. I'm more spiritual than anything. Incorporating positive aspects of different religions that help me succeed in every day life for the betterment of self. With this being said I believe there is a Heavenly Father whom I choose to call God. So therefore when we die our souls either go to heaven or hell. With God being an all loving God then it's hard for me to consider Him sending anyone to hell. Confusion begins creeping in leaving me undecided questioning myself which leads me to believe partly in reincarnation. Reasonings for believing in reincarnation makes sense to me in the fact that when someone dies a birth is given. Our souls have to go somewhere without a doubt. The possibility arises in my minds eye. Can a loved ones soul go into a newborn child. Seems far fetched yet at the same time it kind of brings comfort. It's a question I ponder on from time to time wishing I could find an absolute definite answer. Praying the conclusion I come to before my last breath is the right one so the possibility of hell is taken out of the equation. So the part of me that believes in reincarnation leads me to being transformed into the life of a bright and vibrant butterfly enjoying my freedom from day to day. Where I'd flutter about from place to place bringing joy to everyone I meet. Transforming lives by leaving encouraging messages in the sky to help uplift each individual.
