I am a contemporary American with an awesome Guardian Angel who speaks to me sometimes. I am living in West Virginia with my very patient husband. His rich Aunt has left him $6 million. We have 3 biological children, and have adopted eight more. Two are Ethiopian, 3 are from El Salvador, and the other three we rescued from abortion clinics. We did this using a series of highly sophisticated martial arts and special training - nobody was hurt. We operate a network of baby rescuers and have expert but humble people who are wizards at forging documentation.
My husband has enough medical and military training to cause temporary amnesia, safely deliver the baby and get out.
Recently we have purchased a cave beneath the city of Paris, formerly a hiding place for Catholics in the Reign of Terror. It has a tiny chapel. Our Ethiopian son has a vocation to the Holy priesthood.

Lol, DeMaistere. Perhaps you could have surpassed Ludwig Van Beethoven. Elizabeth, I like yours; that would be cool if you and your husband could do all that stuff.
Now mine. I would be born male, a purebread Irishman, at the same time I was born, just when the internet came to be. I would be born poor, my father but a lowly salesman. We would at the beginning of life be moving around a lot. I would make very few friends, but I would be very interested and curious about everything that goes on around me. My father would eventually convert to Traditional Catholicism, and so would the rest of my family. I would be an only child, and so I would be lonely. I would not receive a formal education, but would be taught by my mother. She would encourage me to pursue whatever I was interested in. As I got older, I would think more about death and come closer to Christ. I would also go to the library frequently, reading whatever it is that I find interesting. When I was about, say, 18 years old, I would write a fiction novel that becomes a best seller, and I would have an income that would set me for life. Looking back on my life, I would realize that I wanted to have a good, big, catholic family that stayed put in one spot, and would be far away from the evils of the world. Later, I would meet a girl that shared my beliefs, and we would build a house out in the woods in Wisconsin, with a Catholic Church within walking distance. I would raise 8 or so children, because I knew what it felt to be an only child. I would personally educate them in the ways of Christ, so that I may give to Him saints. I would write books, both fiction and nonfiction, invent things, study philosphy, write music, or even sketch. And then, as I lay dying, I would have my entire family around me as I lay on my death bed, and during my last breath, I would have the privelage of seeing the Holy Family appear standing over me.

In regards to being a responsible man, would it be interesting to learn, after six years of accumulating all the wisdom you could, that you had it right all along when you were 8, and that to be the most responsible of men, one must be the most light-hearted and care-free of boys?
I look at the complexity of the world, and yet see that God is but a Divine Child with simple motives, in that he creates all of this, from atoms to the most complex biological organisms, just because he wants us as his friends.
