Not sure I know the answer to this either. I've seen good times and hard times. Usually my hard times were my own fault and my good times were due to my hard work. Though I have had times that were hard that were beyond my control.
I guess what I'm saying is it selfish to have all my needs met and have 3 motorcycles, 4 trucks, 2 cars, a camper, a house and land and contribute to charity and have money in the bank. I don't think so not when you work for it. Would it be selfish if I saw someone in need and not help them, knowing I had everything I needed and much more, sure it would. I think sometimes we think we need more than we actually do. Why have 4 trucks? Well I bought them all new and paid for them and didn't trade them, they were mine and they weren't eating anything. Did I need them NO, but I was glad to have them when other people needed something to drive, due to various reasons. So I'm on the fence on this question. shrugs....

this is an easy one. Being selfish is when you put your needs above all others. Getting your needs met is simply standing in line...

The two are not necessarily related. You can be one and not the other or have both circumstances at the same time. I'm not exactly sure how to answer this one.

QUESTION 3/11
Would you like to know the precise date of your death? Why or why not??

Absolutely. If I was the only one who knew. I'm not as squicked out by death as many people are. It would give me freedom to actually live my life, I think, and the time to plan things just so, in order to make sure that I get done what I need to get done before I go. The planner and list maker in me would just go bananas with this information. I would see it as a personal challenge to see if I can do everything I want and need to do before the bell dings.

oh no. I remember holding onto the knowledge that my dad had terminal liver cancer before we shared it with him. That knowledge ate a hole in my heart, even tho it gave me an opportunity to take advantage of every precious moment left to enjoy with him. It also made every moment passing an incredible loss.
I want to just live my life as tho I wouldnt regret it if I didnt wake up tomorrow. I have had one of the most colorful and adventuresome lives I have heard of. Few compare. I have had my share of mistakes but I have also done great strides to correct them. Right now I am in a low zone but trust me, 3 years out of 54 is a short cycle. (smiling brightly) what a wonderful life I have and will continue to have! I dont want a finish line looming anywhere out there ....

I would want to know so it would be clearly out there and I could plan accordingly as well as ready myself emotionally for it (insomuch as one can ready ones self for the end of being). Not to mention it would take the pressure off about oh say worrying about parachuting or base jumping or simply driving in Houston rush hour traffic. I don't think I would want anyone to know my date but me until it got close because it would cause a change in the dynamic of the relationship.

Why or why not?? NO. I try to live my life as best I can all the time. I might spend money I don't really have seeing someplace magnificent if I knew it was soon, but life, for me, is really about relationships and I work at keeping those current. |

Not sure I'd like to know how or when. I think that would change the dynamics of many of my relationships. Especially my relationship with me.

Isn't the definition of a "wish" to desire something you don't already have? It doesn't have to mean that you don't appreciate what you have. You may be grateful and happy with what you have and still have wishes... (in my opinion)

Great question!

So, yes; I would absolutely like to know the day, but not the how. Having an exact date has a way of putting everything into proper perspective. I believe it would give me the strength to say and do the things I need to but cannot bring myself to for whatever reason.... |

In my opinion....
Quote:
The fine line lies in knowing the difference between actual "needs" and "wants." It is never selfish to insist on having legitimate needs met. It may or may not be selfish to have all of your wants met depending upon how you go about it and whether or not you do so with a sense of restraint. |
