Without heat, I can always bundle up or smother myself with blankets.

Do you ever rationalize bad behavior as a means to an end, and why?

No I would never rationalize bad behavior.

Would you sacrifice your life today if it meant finding the cure to cancer?

No. I have kids to raise and love a wife to care for and enjoy.
I am reminded of a scenario in a movie when a person is asked to sacrifice himself for the sake of humanity.
He refuses.
They are furious. Why they say, why?!

He sheds a single tear and says "because its my only life".

No. I must live. Esp as I don't have children yet.

Do you find that there is such a thing as someone's name not suiting the person and do you know someone like that? If so, what is their name and why does it not suit them?

Why do you think that when you are truly trying to do the right thing something comes along and throws a wrench in it?

Trying to do the right thing is no easy task, many evil forces are at work to subvert those instances.

What kind of music do you find most inspiring?
post #439 of 953
7/15/12 at 9:17pm
My taste in music is very catholic so I find all kinds of music inspiring. I probably find alternative music the most inspiring because it's a bit off beat ,not quite polished up and I find beauty in that.

Do you watch those reality ghost adventures series on TV eg. The Dead Files, Haunted Collector etc or do they annoy you ?

We used to watch Medium-- the characters were likeable and the plots were usually interesting. Haven't watched any others since that went off the air.

edit: "What must you accomplish in the next 24 hours?"

I need to go spend some time with my mother, maybe take her out for a drive or lunch. She gets too isolated.

Do you tend to stay up too late?
post #450 of 953

Very late as a habit.

You live in a world where there is no age. Instead, people die at random and could live for a day, 20 years, or 200 years. If this were reality, how would you live your life differently than you do now?
post #451 of 953
7/15/12 at 10:41pm
Not differently really, because we still have to live as though we could die tomorrow (i.e. make out a will, plan for the care of our minor children, etc.) while having to plan to provide for ourselves if we happen to live to old age.

No. I am the only person in my family to NOT have seen a ghost in my grandmother's house. I'd feel left out if not for the fact that I don't believe in ghosts, thus, not seeing one is better.

If you could relive one day of your life, knowing that you could only relive it but not actually change it, which would it be?

The day I got married.

It can be difficult to share concerns with those we respect and care about or even those we don't know that well. Why is it so hard for people to make connections, and in the process gain insights and relationship to another being?
post #454 of 953
7/15/12 at 11:09pm
Various reasons, I guess, from the very shallow and unsubstantiated ones like lack of interest, shallowness, boredom, lack of compatibility etc., to very objective ones like serious drawbacks in one's life, or, on the contrary, too exigent ambitions, too high expectations and more.

Why do we so often define ourselves by our job titles?

Maybe it's a status thing for some, or that jobs take a lot of one's time in their life, or both.

Nike . I have a weird thing going on with Nike. I always buy these limited edition tennis shoes from Nike that seem available in SE Asia only. I look out for them and buy multiple pairs. This style was discontinued years ago and you can only find limited editions once a year or so - if lucky. I hate wearing socks and tying laces . This particular style of shoe I get has velcro instead of laces and has a split in the toe area separating the big toe from the rest. It looks vaguely hoof - like ! *LOL* A precursor to the 'bare foot ' type shoe now in vogue.
