At first, this one seems like a "no brainer" to me, yet would I want a life, anybody else's life, that doesn't include the souls I currently love? My parents, my friends? My pets? No, I would not.
Not long term, no. But if I could switch back, there are a few people I'd like to try on for a day or two. Sometimes I just think "I wonder what it's like to be THAT person?"
I always wanted to be a famous singer, so I like to trade places with one for just a week or so to see what it would be like. I wish my voice was like Whitney's but who comes close on that one?
About Six-Word Questions
SMITH Magazine brings you an entirely new kind of six-word experience: Six-Word Questions. This is the place to pose a question to the SMITH community from, "What are your favorite Six-Word quotations" to challenging members to pen Six-Word Obituaries to the recently departed to Six-Word jokes and any other Six-Word question you can dream up. You can even request that the responses be in six words. Everyone has a question—what's yours?

I would love to for a day or two in order to learn from their situation and experiences. I would never like to permanently become another though.Susan_Breeden says,
It would be fun to switch places for a day or two. I love that idea! Not permanently, however. (And, DELTA, I like your plan...)jl333 says,
No way! I feel I have the perfect life now.JAD says,
Maybe not to switch but able to look in and see what everyone's all about. How about a Jennie?maryjane31 says,
