Ask HN: Looking for a Short Story
2 points by hgyjnbdet 705 days ago
A while ago I remember seeing a thread in which a sort story was linked too. I can't remember it only what the story was roughly about:

A being (baby god) lives through every life on earth to learn how to be a decent god. After each death they remember themselves and are greeted by their parent/teacher.

Moral is, at least what I took away, to treat people with respect and understanding because they are actually you.

Either way if someone could link to that short story I would appreciate it, my googlefoo is coming up short.

Feel free to post your favourite short stories too.

Thanks.

Thank you, you're a star. I would never have got this with what I was searching! Even tried gpt, no joy. Again thanks.
