Hi Tang,
Very good post!
D.One,
I actually think your chances of being female in your next life are very high. :thumbsup: I previously set forth some links to Stevenson's research on this subject. It seems to indicate that cross-gender lives are the exception (rather than the rule) for most people. (I don't believe he is the only one to come to this conclusion). There is also a lot to indicate that if we do not exactly "choose" the trials we face in each life we may still be able to "refuse" to take a particular life if it does not suit us. It seems that we choose a life like we choose a course at college--for what we can learn, though in this context the lessons tend to be spiritual and relational rather than the type we learn in school. Occasional cross-gender lives apparently broaden knowledge, empathy, etc. You may have just learned--in this life--that you'd rather not seek to broaden your "horizons" in this particular way in the future OMG, and I don't blame you! My sense is that it is not absolutely necessary, though it may slow you down a bit in getting where we all seem to be heading. OTOH, there may be alternative ways to gain the same virtues and traits, so maybe it will never be a problem. Anyhow, though we may all hesitate to say more than we know for sure, I'm pretty sure you will get what you are wishing for in terms of being female in your next life. I think many here would also agree, but once again, the usual caveat: we can only give opinions, not predict the future--especially when your future may involve choices you might make when you are no longer "in the flesh" and may have a completely different perspective on the matter.
Cordially,
S&S
PS--You may enjoy (and get something out of) reading Deborah's story, which covers some of the things we are talking about here. I think it also speaks to the possibilities--and dangers--of getting what you wish for in terms of future lives:
