When you die, you the soul, and not the body, goes into a state of travel and resting in a 'if deserved' heavenly place (there are different levels of the heavenly abode and you go to the level of your karmic action ). After the required stay there, you are born back here on earth to continue working out your karma's in a body that was chosen for you based on your previous life actions, be it fortunate or unfortunate as is the case with many who question, WHY? There would eventually come a time when you would no longer be reincarnated but merge into oneness back with the Supreme, from where you first came.

I don't know, how's your karma?
If you've lived a good life, being generous, kind, and the like, then you'll be reincarnated in a higher social standing, or at least a better lifestyle.
If you've lived a bad life, being selfish, mean, and such, then you'll be reincarnated in a lower standing, or with a less comfortable lifestyle.

Uh... do no longer ALL flowers (trees coated) have male or woman trees? i do no longer bear in mind my biology completely, yet i presumed all flowers have been the two male or woman---or some thing like that. yet besides... ok, if I have been to reincarnate, i might come again as yet another human (boring, i be responsive to, yet i'm having far too plenty exciting in this worldwide to bounce to a distinctive species.) EDIT--Jeez, Jon, its in straightforward terms a hypothetical question. The poster isn't saying you may have confidence it. in case you won't be able to respond to a query out of humor or exciting, i've got confidence unhappy for you.

There are three modes of material nature: Goodness, Passion and Ignorance.
Chapter 14, Verse 14.
When one dies in the mode of goodness, he attains to the pure higher planets.
Chapter 14, Verse 15.
When one dies in the mode of passion, he takes birth among those engaged in fruitive activities; and when he dies in the mode of ignorance, he takes birth in the animal kingdom.
Chapter 14, Verse 20.
When the embodied being is able to transcend these three modes, he can become free from birth, death, old age and their distresses and can enjoy nectar even in this life.
Chapter 14, Verse 21.
Arjuna inquired: O my Lord, by what symptoms is one known who is transcendental to those modes? What is his behavior? And how does he transcend the modes of nature?
Chapter 14, Verse 22-25.
The Blessed Lord said: He who does not hate illumination, attachment and delusion when they are present, nor longs for them when they disappear; who is seated like one unconcerned, being situated beyond these material reactions of the modes of nature, who remains firm, knowing that the modes alone are active; who regards alike pleasure and pain, and looks on a clod, a stone and a piece of gold with an equal eye; who is wise and holds praise and blame to be the same; who is unchanged in honor and dishonor, who treats friend and foe alike, who has abandoned all fruitive undertakings--such a man is said to have transcended the modes of nature.
Chapter 14, Verse 26.
One who engages in full devotional service, who does not fall down in any circumstance, at once transcends the modes of material nature and thus comes to the level of Brahman.
Chapter 14, Verse 27.
And I am the basis of the impersonal Brahman, which is the constitutional position of ultimate happiness, and which is immortal, imperishable and eternal.
To understand fully, you need to read these 27 Verses of Chapter 14 of Holy Bhagavad Gita.

Yes you said it right. But more precisely how you response to your current life. Your response/reaction would determine what your future life might turn out. Treat your neighbors well enough even they are rude sometimes guarantees equal treatment in future life. Otherwise, you have not learned in your current life.
