freewrite week 4 day 2

I really loved my question for the group discussion on know your audiences the only disappointment for me was those who really took it to seriously.  To me asking what you would be reincarnated was meant to be silly and not serious.  I got a hand full of responses from the class that they wouldn't be reincarnated at all.  I was disappointed at the fact that people couldn’t look past it all.  To me I see a lazy dog and wish I could do that all day.  I see a field of wheat and wish I could feel the wind like that.  I would love to fly like a bird.  I would love to run around a tree and play like a squirrel.  I wasn’t looking for people’s religious views.  But then I remembered where we lived and people here have the hardest time removing themselves to be open-minded enough for a silly question what would you like to be if you could come back.  I don’t necessarily believe in reincarnation but if I got to heaven and was given the chance to come back I would and would hope to be something other than human just for the fun of it.  I did make sure I responded back to all the people who did take my question as light hearted.  I did not respond to those who chose not to answer the question.  It was there choice to answer that way I and I have to respect that but if I was grading on if they did what I asked then no they didn’t.  They copped out and took the question to literally.  To me the point of the exercise was to be fun and silly and think deeper.   My favorite answer was someone wanted to be Einstein’s brain.  This I loved because he didn’t just want to be Einstein he wanted to be a part of him.  That was the answer I was looking for.  I would have loved for him to say why but I felt he looked at the question in the best light.
