No.
Do you want to be reborn as a member of the opposite sex?
A person once asked me why I would want to stop rebirth. "It sounds pretty cool. Being able to come back. Who wouldn't want to be reborn."
I replied. "Wanting to be reborn is like wanting to stay in a jail cell, when you have the chance to go free and experience the whole wide world. Does a convict, on being freed from his shabby, constricting, little cell, suddenly say "I really want to go back to jail and be put in a cell. It sounds pretty cool. Being able to come back. Who wouldn't want that?"

No. While men seem to have it easier in many ways, I think I'm going to follow Jetsumna Tenzin Palmo's example and aspire to return as a woman.

Did you admire Mahatma Gandhi or Martin Luther King as a child?

No, not really... I didn't know of Mahatma Gandhi until later in life (well, except as a leader in the computer game "Civilization," and I didn't really understand King's civil rights issues until later in life.

Do you ever post on Dharmawheel from work?

Not really. It's the body that seems to be getting older and I don't like all the sagginess. :smile:
