Who would you? If you could?

Im working on some stuff about myself and I tried to use the mental trick of asking what would it do if I was to die tomorrow. Not a good question for long term living

I thought of a much better one. Who would you be if you could choose Who you are and what you do? What if you lived from that in the now always?

Idk if we have free will or not but I wonder what people would do if they belived they did lol

I wear two rings. One has a quote from Ecclesiastes," To everything there is a season." The second is the grim reaper. I wear them and look at them periodically throughout the day. Pondering about my life.

That reminds me of some of the stuff ive read about impermanence and the 5 rsmeberances. I guess at the end of the day we just want to be happy good people.

Also..I think those rings are super cool man!

I catch myself saying a lot what would you do in your last days if you were dying. From the first breath you take makes you a little closer to death.

I share this outlook, although it seems odd because this illness is so integral part of personality and everyday life.

I have to go along with @Schizbro 's answer. It’s a good one that I agree with. I’d be happy just to be me without sz.

Makes sense zoe… and your probablysmart enough to do it. And yea humility is .I think a mark of wisdom. Water rolls down hill …I really think humility is a natural result of deep understanding (i have none​:man_facepalming:t5: )lol not a jk tho

If I didnt have sz I would want to be a good person and not be sooo conflicted about soo much in life. More self control and empathy …accepting and compassionate

But if i could only pick one it would be the mental health @Schizbro @SzSupportAdmin

I don’t know honestly. My perception is blocked up by all the things on social media. But I think if I could be. I’d teach technology and chair yoga to old people at the Y. I always liked older people just not in a nursing home setting because they get mistreated and their power is taken away.
