Inspired by this article about a jellyfish that doesn't die of old age, injury or poor conditions, it just reverts back to a juvenile state and is reborn genetically identical. If you could be reborn, as you, would you want to?

Edit: Just the physical you, genetic and presumably epigenetic, no memory.

People are getting caught up on the "no memory" part but there is no reason you couldn't communicate with yourself between lives. Sort of preserving your memories that way.

That really interesting to consider.

Would the new you even care?
