50 Questions To Make You Think

   1. How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?
    I would probably be about 16.

   2. Which is worse, failing or never trying?
    Never trying is way worse than failing because if you fail at least you gave it a try.

   3. If life is so short, why do we do so many things we don’t like and like so many things we don’t do?
    Only God knows this answer.

   4. When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?
    Hopefully not. I try my hardest to keep my promises and try something new at least once a month.

   5. What is the one thing you’d most like to change about the world?
    I would most like to change how sex has become so natural to talk about in society. I don't want to go back to when sex was forbidden to talk about,
but I would like to change the way 13 year-olds feel like they have to have sex to be accepted in society. Put aside the fact that sex sells, we all know that, and
this is the main reason why people are okay with talking about sex. I understand it's a natural thing, but I hate how natural it has become.

   6. If happiness was the national currency, what kind of work would make you rich?
    Being a mom

   7. Are you doing what you believe in, or are you settling for what you are doing?
    I am doing what I believe in

   8. If the average human life span was 40 years, how would you live your life differently?
    Honestly, I wouldn't have done anything differently. Where and who I am today was shaped from my past.

   9. To what degree have you actually controlled the course your life has taken?
    For the first part of my life my parents controlled how my life was run, but until about 3 years ago I basically lived under a rock. You have to be the compass in your life. You cannot have someone else pointing you in the direction they think you should go.

  10. Are you more worried about doing things right, or doing the right things?
    Doing the right things

  11. You’re having lunch with three people you respect and admire.  They all start criticizing a close friend of yours, not knowing she is your friend.  The criticism is distasteful and unjustified.  What do you do?
    Speak up for my friend. True friends don't let people walk all over other friends!

  12. If you could offer a newborn child only one piece of advice, what would it be?
    Live with no regrets

  13. Would you break the law to save a loved one?
    Yes

  14. Have you ever seen insanity where you later saw creativity?
    Definitely, you see it every day

  15. What’s something you know you do differently than most people?
    Live and breathe

  16. How come the things that make you happy don’t make everyone happy?
    Everyone else is different than I am and what makes me happy, like the way he smiles at me, is not going to make them as happy as
his smile makes me.

  17. What one thing have you not done that you really want to do?  What’s holding you back?
    I would really like to do gymnastics again, and my age I think is what is holding me back

  18. Are you holding onto something you need to let go of?
    Yes, my past relationships that have left me scared and bruised.

  19. If you had to move to a state or country besides the one you currently live in, where would you move and why?

  20. Do you push the elevator button more than once?  Do you really believe it makes the elevator faster?
    Sometimes, but I just hope it will close the door faster

    A joyful simpleton

    I am me because God has shaped me this way

  23. Have you been the kind of friend you want as a friend?
    Yes

  24. Which is worse, when a good friend moves away, or losing touch with a good friend who lives right near you?
    Losing touch with a close friend who lives near you

  25. What are you most grateful for?
    My family and friends

  26. Would you rather lose all of your old memories, or never be able to make new ones?
    That's a hard one... I would say I would rather lose all my old memories. As much as they mean to me, not being able to make new memories seems more painful than erasing the old ones.

  27. Is is possible to know the truth without challenging it first?
    No

  28. Has your greatest fear ever come true?
    My first reaction is yes, because of the relationship that left scars so deep it's hard to just cover them up, but I don't really know what my greatest fear is. I think my greatest fear is never finding someone to love...

  29. Do you remember that time 5 years ago when you were extremely upset?  Does it really matter now?
    Yes, actually I do remember that time that was almost 5 years ago. Spring Break 2007, the guy I was dating at the time went to Cancun with his buddies and during the course of that week proceeded to cheat on me with 3 other girls. Two of the girls he did when he was drunk and the other he was sober. Yet, I had no clue what was going on because he did not call me, text me or apparently care about me. Does it matter now? No. I have moved on but the memory and the wound has turned into more of a bruise now. But bruises still hurts when they are poked. I mean it does still remain a nightmare and sometimes it's hard to trust those that mean the most to me.

  30. What is your happiest childhood memory?  What makes it so special?
    Happiest childhood memory was probably the first time I ever held my sister. I wanted her to be a boy really bad but the second I looked into her blue eyes my whole world changed and thus began a life-long friendship.

  31. At what time in your recent past have you felt most passionate and alive?
    Right now. Having a great guy in my life. Having some of the best friends I could ever ask for. And just following my dreams :)

  32. If not now, then when?

  33. If you haven’t achieved it yet, what do you have to lose?

  34. Have you ever been with someone, said nothing, and walked away feeling like you just had the best conversation ever?
    Yes, yes I have :)

  35. Why do religions that support love cause so many wars?
    Cause they are fighting to prove a point. Whether the point is worth fighting for is up to them.

  36. Is it possible to know, without a doubt, what is good and what is evil?
    Yes and no. Everyone can tell you if something is good, but when something is evil, how do you really know? It can be bad for you or just bad in general, but Evil?

  37. If you just won a million dollars, would you quit your job?
    No. I would just buy it outright!

  38. Would you rather have less work to do, or more work you actually enjoy doing?
    More work that I enjoy doing

    My family

  43. What is the difference between being alive and truly living?
    Everyone today is alive but to truly live you have to let go of the fear that is holding you back.

  44. When is it time to stop calculating risk and rewards, and just go ahead and do what you know is right?
    Whenever you feel it's time

  45. If we learn from our mistakes, why are we always so afraid to make a mistake?
