NEXT LIFE I AM GONNA BE A BEAR


In this life, I’m a woman. In my next life, I’d like to come back as a bear. When you’re a bear, you get to hibernate. You do nothing but sleep for six months. I could deal with that.

Before you hibernate, you’re supposed to eat yourself stupid. I could deal with that too.

When you’re a girl bear, you birth your (who are the size of walnuts) while you’re sleeping and wake to partially grown, cute, cuddly cubs. I could definitely deal with that.

If you’re mama bear, everyone knows you mean business. You swat anyone who bothers your cubs. If your cubs get out of line, you swat them too. I could deal with that.

If you’re a bear, your mate EXPECTS you to wake up growling. He EXPECTS that you will have hairy legs and excess body fat.

Yup, gonna be a bear!

HIGHLY UNLIKELY. IT SEEMS THAT ONCE YOU BECOME A HUMAN BEING, YOU DO NOT GO BACK TO OTHER SPECIES. SORRY.

My daughter sent me this several years ago and I did a painting of her waking up in the Spring a a bear/woman.....and gave it to for her birthday, which is in early Spring......We both loved this idea, especially, perhaps because it is such a Canadian thing......Several Canadian fantasy novels where a is a woman/bear situation......Also, the First Nations people here on the coast have strong mythology involving a bear/woman.....She is captured by a bear while picking blueberries and lives in his cave and bears twins....one who is Human and one a bear......and so on.......I love bears......

According to Google, " Bears are not mean or malicious; they are very gentle and tolerant animals. Mother bears are affectionate, protective, devoted, strict, sensitive, and attentive with their young. Not unlike people, bears can be empathetic, fearful, joyful, playful, social, and even altruistic".

More reasons to want to be a bear, Daylili!

One Hundred and Fifty stitches in the back of my older s0n's head courtesy of a bear. That was one summer camp adventure he'll never forget. It was in Big Bear California and he was in Big Bear Hospital. They were getting ready to put my y0unger s0n on the bus home and we had to tell them not to. We took him back to the camp to say goodbye and he was gifted with a bear. This was my y0unger s0n's first time at Summer Camp. The following year, they both went back.

Your description of bears makes me think of my big tuxedo cat. I have witnessed him up a tree softly mewing to another cat trying to help him get down to the ground. The frightened cat eventually made it down safely. Being a bear sounds better and better.

My kids thought I had already made it. My then-teenage daughter told me that I loved her too much. Is that possible?

IT SEEMS THAT ACCORDING TO HINDU AND BOUDDHIST TEACHINGS, ONCE YOU HAVE BECOME A HUMAN BEING YOU CAN DO BETTER OR WORSE IN YOUR NEXT LIFE BUT BECOMING A LOWER SPECIES IS OUT. I SUPPOSE ONE COULD BECOME A SORT OF BEARISH HUMAN.

Being a bear in West Virginia can be problematic at this time of the year. It's bear hunting season. Soon they will be going into hibernation.
