SEC17/W5|Do you believe in reincarnation?
In a quiet English town, Thomas led an ordinary life until an unusual incident with a milk vending machine occurred. Not a cow, but one of those machines that dispense fresh milk. As Thomas crossed the street, the machine lost control and hit him, sending him to the afterlife.
Instead of moving towards the light, Thomas would wake up in his bed every day, reliving the incident. Initially, he thought it was a dream, but after being hit repeatedly by the same milk machine, he realized he was trapped in a cycle of death and rebirth.
He decided to experiment: he changed his route, but fate always found a way to end his journey under a dairy product. From a milk truck to an explosion of milk bottles, fate had a distinctly macabre sense of humor.
Over time, Thomas found irony in his situation and began to prepare jokes before each incident. "This must be the real meaning of 'getting milked'!" became his favorite.
This endless cycle led Thomas to reflect on reincarnation not just as a series of physical births but as a metaphor for learning and spiritual growth. One day, a quote from the Dalai Lama enlightened him:
"The fundamental reason for reincarnation is love and compassion. If someone dies after living their life without having the opportunity to develop these aspects, the universe presents another opportunity.""
Thomas understood that his eternal return was not a punishment, but a chance to learn and evolve. Each death became a lesson in how to let go and serenely accept what life offers, even if it meant dying again in a ridiculous way.
Thus, with each new day, Thomas not only faced his fate with humor but also with deep acceptance and curiosity about the lessons each new life could teach him, even if it involved being hit by a milk truck.

I wanted to represent my concept of reincarnation through the metaphor of milk, using it as a connecting thread between life and death. Milk, a symbol of nourishment and the beginning of life, thus becomes a means to explore the continuous cycle of birth, death, and rebirth.
Hello my friend, I think that reincarnation do not happen to everyone.I believe that it is real because it has been fully described in our Puranas and scriptures. Even today detailed evidence can be seen. But we should respect each other philosophies as universe goes every way. Each and every culture has its importance and impact strongly on universe.
Thank you
Thank you, my dear friend. Yes, reincarnation is for many, but not for all; we must seek it in our fortunate journey through the grace of life we have received. The universe is what welcomes our energy, returning it to us with earthly life. Have a good life!🌈

It started great being hit by a milking machine... Interesting favourite joke he has. It sounds a bit painful but I guess he started to like it.
I think if this is a story or not.
Even if not it's still a great entry.
Love and luck to you!

First of all, I apologize for the delay in responding to your comment. Secondly, thank you for the mention.
I found your entry very interesting, due to the fact that it does not follow a rigid structure, but you give a twist to the participation, giving a different point of view.
Good luck to you.
Hello @mofmaria, time seems to vanish at the moment of your visit, and every perception of it dissolves. Reading your words fills me with joy.
