In my next life I'm...

Bears bears bears. My friends call me Bear, or Polar Bear when I'm in Hawaii. It all started 10 years ago when my Chinese housemate looked at my hands and said they were bear paws. I think she was eyeing them as some sort of magical Chinese medicine or something.

I was recently given a quiz over dinner by a new friend here in Honolulu and the first question she asked was what animal was my favorite and I had no choice but to answer a bear. She followed that up with 3 reasons why. I responded with: 1) they are hard to find and not as prevalent as say your household dog. 2) strong and powerful. 3) often misunderstood by people and considered very dangerous like sharks when I think we are much more a danger to them. A few questions later I was asked what animal I'd like to be in my next life. I was really thinking a grizzly bear, but then opted for wings and chose a red tailed hawk. That was probably a mistake.

It turns out according to the quizmaster that the qualities of the animal you like represents the qualities you are searching for in a mate.

Bears rock. Now where's my she-bear?
