Would you want to be reincarnated back into this world? No guarantees, no promises, no memory of this life?

Knowing my luck, I'd come back as me. 
I could come back as a red panda, that might be nice.

No. I don't want to take a chance in being in a situation and place much worse than I have experienced years ago. I'm kinda grateful.
Chuckle... There is a Terry Pratchett book "the truth" in which a villain steals a religious relic (a potato, you gotta read the book to follow that). After his death he is reincarnated as a potato weevil.

Good idea.
@Salty Booger: would that be possible in your scenario? Can I send a note to my reincarnated self?
If I come back with no memories at all of this life, what is the benefit to "me" to come back? Asking for a friend
Tell your friend that we have ample opportunity over many lifetimes to do everything we ever wanted to do and to experience everything there is to experience. So if your friend gets to the end of a life and even a tiny bit feels "I wish I had", not to worry - wishes are fulfilled fully.If I come back with no memories at all of this life, what is the benefit to "me" to come back? Asking for a friend
Nope. Not at this time. Not a snowballs chance.
Yes.

Perhaps you have but don't realize it. There are many sages and poets who have come and gone. Who's to say you weren't one of them.

I. Because I would have made it so that it would have been irrefutable evidence for reincarnation. When they didn't they weren't me.Perhaps you have but don't realize it. There are many sages and poets who have come and gone. Who's to say you weren't one of them.
