Title: if you could..........?
Post by: Natasha on January 25, 2008, 07:41:51 AM
change 3 things in this world or even just in your life, what would they be?


- i would make time travel possible, but only from a watching stand. No interfering.
- i would make space travel possible, and here we can definitely interfere.
- i would also decrease celebrities' salary by like 90% ;)

Someone once asked Ghandi: "how do you change the world?"
He said: "be the change you want to see"

DT Suzuki Once said "everybody wants to change the world; nobody wants to do the dishes. But if we do the dishes with the right state of mind we will help change the world."

LOL :laugh:
Right Effort, Right Mindfulness, Right Concentration, and the willingness to look at the positive side of things in everyday life.
There is positive. We can chose to look at it if we wish.
:D

Change 3 things? I could use a few more.
Zero population growth globally.
End global warming
Make all politician/government officials honest

On a personal level, I'd just want the body I would have had if I had been born genetically female.
My husband and I would be perfectly healthy
and financially secure.

I know that's more than 3 but I couldn't resist

For the world at large...

I would restore Baghdad to its former grandeur (this would eliminate Bushco at the same time)
I would help to heal our dying Mother Earth
I would save one "thing" to fix anything that I had done that went wrong


For my own life...

To show more gratitude to my Creator for providing for me
To have transitioned much sooner
To leave this world at the same time as Cindy

I feel a mix and match here.

#1 Grow up from the time I was little as a girl. At least I grew up being my mum's sucky.
#2 Wish I still had the ranch I was brought up on.
#3 Win $10,00,000 lottery, keep a couple million for myself and give the rest away for worthy causes.

For the world:

1. More acceptance for people that are different

2.  Stem cell research advance greatly

3.  Everyone has an equal chance at right to life and success

For me:

1.  To be a tall muscular cis male

2.  Financially rich

3. Great health
