Ask Yourself This.

I found this book called "The Book of Questions" It asks all of those questions too bold to ask to just anyone. It is a great self-discovery book, to see what you think you wouyld so in those situations.. I'm going to try do do one every day.. let's see how all you ladies think

<span style="font-family:Geneva">If you could spend one year in perfect happiness but afterward would remember nothing of the experience would you do so, and if not, why not?</span>

Absolutely not. If I can't remember how happy I was, then whats the point? I would rather live my life, day to day, not knowing how its going to turn out, whether it be good or bad, and be able to remember the happy times. My memories are what makes me me, and I would never give that away.

I also wrote one in your ask kendra anything topic.

I agree with Kendra...whats the point in doing it if you wont remember....Id rather remember the good and the bad....I think it makes me cherish the good moments even more!

JGoldinger · #6 June 9th, 2005, 12:47 PM

IF you ask me if i would rather have a year of good memories and not remember or bad memoires and remember i would deffinatly say the good. But i do agree what is the point if it isnt a memory that stays in there.

Its part of life you GET TO REMEMBER lol.

I dont know how people with altzimers live like that you know...

AustinsMommy · #7 June 9th, 2005, 12:49 PM

I would definately want to remember, because i even cherish the bad times...it makes me me, and makes people respect my accomplishments a lot more...and i love the look my bf gives me when we fight and the way we cant keep straight faces.

Oh what the heck im going to do another

If you could prevent either an earthquake in peru that would kill 40,000 people, a crasha t you r local airport killing 200 people, or a car crash killing an acquaintence of yours...which one would you choose? Why not the others?

I would do the peru one, it would be hard because everyone wants to be selfish and save the ones they know, however if 40,000 people were killed, many more people mourn.

I don't have the answer nor opinion for this one. I hate for anyone undeserving and innocent to die. If I could choose to save them all, that would be awesome!

I have a what if book too!! It is called "If...(Questions for the Game of Life)"

For the first question, yeah I'd do it. I don't know why I would or wouldn't, but I would. You only live once, and you know it was a ton of fun if you don't remember the next day!!

JK

For the second question, I'd save the people in Peru, too. I wouldn't want anyone close to me to die, but I also don't want over 40,000 people mourning either. 40,000 mourning vs 1 mourning...hmmm. Seems cut and dry to me

If you got to choose either die from drowning or die from being burned to death, what would you chose?

I think I'd like to burn

AustinsMommy · #12 June 9th, 2005, 03:31 PM

ew...that ones a hard one. I think i'd burn because it would kill ya quicker i think?

JGoldinger · #13 June 9th, 2005, 06:21 PM

I would rather die from burning... i would rather have my body gone then have my lungs suffer... suffocation is my worlds biggest fear.

And if the car accident was a family member or best friend OR MY SON IT WOULD BE THE CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is what affects me most outta those three. You know... like i thought about it on how bad did the war in iraq affect me compared to some thing like my mall blowing up and then my family being in a car accident and what affected me the most was that

AustinsMommy · #14 June 10th, 2005, 12:53 PM

Someone very close to you is in pain, paralyzed, and will die within a month. He begs you to give him a poison so that he can die. Would you? What if it were your father?

JGoldinger · #15 June 10th, 2005, 01:03 PM

I would give it to that person in a heart beat. I never want anyone to suffer!

I am 100% with Jen. But I would first get it in writing, on video tape, and audio, because I am not going to prison for murder. Absolutely what Jen said!!

AustinsMommy · #17 June 10th, 2005, 01:13 PM

[color=blue]You, your closest friend, and your father are on vacation together hiking in a jungle. Your two companiions stumble into a nest of poisonous vipers and are bitten repeatedly. You know neither will live if not given an immediate shot of anti-venom, yet there is only a single dose of anti-venom and it is in your pocket. What would you do?

Banned-Joshlynn'sMommy · #18 June 10th, 2005, 01:16 PM

In my personal case, I would give it to my friend because my father is a worthless piece of crap. But if my father wasn't a deadbeat, and he actually meant something to me, I would pick him over my friend.

mommyofdani · #19 June 11th, 2005, 04:05 PM

Well, my bf Jessica and I have been best friends since we were four. And if my daddy were still alive, he would want me to give it to Jessica. She was like his daughter! Plus my daddy was a really selfless guy...so I would give it to Jessica.
