Sacrifice, relationship.
How isn't he? Everything else pas*es away.
Lol. Life? I like learning about how to interact with and manipulate people. I prefer to be in a relationship with them and have honest communication, but that's often limited at various levels. I like learning how people think to expand how I think. Also creation is interesting.
Tropical.
Tropical islands, especially with waterfalls, gorgeous seasides with good waves crashing, jungle. I also love certain desolate areas, like on mountains, like Haleakala where my profile pic was.
I don't live in fear..so nothing really.
Probably directly, compas*ionately and if appropriate with a personal willingness to help.
Well I haven't read many of the clas*ics, but probably Jane Eyre so far, it's very impressive.
Tough to get exactly my favorite color, but for similar color my favorites include:
Blue Zircon
Aquamarine
Blue Topaz
In general I like a tropical ocean looking color..surprise. But not too light, I don't like when the gem is pale. All of those gems have some poor representatives, so I'd be picky about selecting one. I like high clarity and not too pale a color.
Not sure, but I do like Japanese Maple, especially large ones, sometimes kinda flaming orange but I like other colors a lot too.
Not sure but I really like the tigerlily.
Define "know" in who I know. I think my uncle John wouldn't be too bad. He seems to understand many of the complex issues somewhat well.
Monetary links to political structures. Like lobbyists to politicians and huge donations to campaigns, making money a dominant driver in political processes. Also on a related note, being allowed to be a politician for more than a few years.
Not really sure. Typical gross stuff probably, like body issues/infections and all the lovely related symptoms that go along with all that crap.
That's a strange kinda subjective question, I think who I find funny is greatly affected by my relationships with those people. Because of all our inside jokes and joint trains of thought, you probably make me laugh more than anyone else. Other than that I find Antonio amusing and probably some comedy show writers.
Family and friends/inside jokes, party games typically, and then certain tv shows or movies.
Does item literally mean one thing, like one plate of food? Or one mas*ive house full of food? What are the boundaries of 1 item? And how long am I stuck on this island? Will I be stuck there forever with no one else?
I like funny/colorful/creative themes, like perhaps if everyone came dressed as an undersea creature or something. I don't like movie or tv themes quite as much. And definitely not tacky teen drama movies..
I like tigers, just because they're awesome, look cool, and lounge around in lush areas. I also like flamingos since they look pretty and interesting, and typically stand in lush watery areas. Maybe you can sense the theme here. I also like crocodiles, big cats and some other birds.
When all my work is done?
Depends on the scenario. When I'm on vacation, I actually feel really good in the morning. Usually in normal life I prefer evening. I do like evening also on vacation, just chilling with a nice view or something. So overall I'd say evening/early night.
I'm not sure, doing dumb things all my life, having to apologize for things I didn't feel guilty about, bad early college grades, poor public speaking instances etc.
Breaking my arms.
Probably North Dakota and the more boring parts of Canada.
Well I want to go to the Seychelles, various places in Europe, Morocco, Tunisia, and others. But I would probably have to pick New Zealand or China. Those are all places I want to go, but I think it would be more fun having a group go with me to China, since it's more foreign and having the group support would be nice. I'm most interested in the lush/rain-forest and certain mountainous regions like Chengdu and southern China.
I have looked through hundreds of celebrities, and have chosen:
Heath Ledger. He has a good bone structure to start with, and I find his expressions to be the most varied and interesting given his given level of attractiveness. He actually looks interesting, and looks good whether he is being goofy or serious. I think one significant factor is how he looks somewhat psychologically deep, or can play that off, which is why he is also one of the people I am most upset about losing as an actor/actress.
Aishwarya Rai and Olivia Wilde. Although I do not think these are the most attractive celebrities period, I could not find the ones I have seen that I thought were more attractive. I chose these women because I am more attracted to them than most other celebrities, specifically because of the primary focus on nice looking eyes and more delicate other facial features.
Probably contemporary, maybe just slightly modern, but with a warm open feeling. I like openness but do not like coldness/sterile/overly clean lines. When I have openness to work with, I would probably like some interest pieces with strange/broken shapes/outlines because the warm openness can support that. I strongly dislike overly busy decorating; for example when strange/jagged shapes are placed in older homes with knick knacks around, or with busy wallpaper, it's just way too much detail, often mismatched.
I don't think I have one, I haven't been to enough restaurants, especially nice ones repeatedly to say that, but in general I like seafood restaurants on the coast, then anything with a great view that cooks their food to perfection, lol. I like all styles of cuisine.
Take in awesome sights like mountains, waterfalls, ocean, and be active like kayak, swim or whatever.
Sight, it's much more powerful than the others, except for perhaps touch. In order I'd probably keep sight, touch, sound, taste, smell, although the sound/taste thing is a tough choice. Sound is more helpful for surviving and getting along in society, but I get lots of enjoyment from taste. I could more easily eat healthy though without taste to bog me down. I would choose sound though, because talking to people and hearing things like my children is much more important.
Blue, makes me feel good.
Maybe knowing the future? This would be more powerful than invisibility, because any knowledge I could acquire from going places invisibly would be revealed by future knowledge, as*uming that knowledge played out in public life and in terms of affecting me. If I couldn't know the future, like that's too powerful, maybe invisibility or invulnerability. Both of those could make me lots of money, and while invisibility would be much more fun, invulnerability would prevent me from being hurt by losers that want my money.
Probably some form of burnt yellow puke beige or yellow puke beige.
Light ocean blue.
Blue when I'm looking at a light tropical ocean.
Maybe dark maroon and a medium/dark green the most? Also brown, a certain blue I'm not sure which, and gray?
I love it! Seriously though, I've come to like it more and more as I've gotten older. I think in terms of growth, it's almost always more helpful than winning, and since most of us aren't perfect in any way, losing is extremely helpful to reveal our weaknesses and focus our efforts of growth.
I definitely enjoy winning and tend to find myself on winning teams/sides fairly often, but I think this is often due to the cross-section of people I'm around. I've been in groups plenty of times where most of the people involved are at least as naturally inclined as I am toward games/sports, if not much more so. I lose more often in those situations, and they are very helpful in revealing my weaknesses, keeping my priorities straight, and minimizing ego.
If the losing comes in an area of specialty, like I've decided that the area is a high priority, and I've spent significant time developing it, and I still lose, then losing might be even MORE helpful, since I want to know every single weakness I have in that area, and truly refine the skill/understanding.
Of course in the end, the goal of losing is to lead to winning, but a winning that comes from deep, developed skill and experience, which won't be easily undone or beaten. The process of losing is always helpful to stay humble.
Probably Diplomacy, or some other military strategy game. Diplomacy is interesting because of how critical negotiation, communication and deception is, aside from the actual gameplay. Depending on my experience playing with particular people and their various personalities, this leaves lots of fascinating opportunities to try bizarre or unexpected tactics, even just to mess with people and see how they react. :-D So I think the psychological/interpersonal aspect would give me sufficient enjoyment and interest to be happy with it for a long time.
Maybe Diplomacy? That can have up to 7 players. For party games, I'm not sure. Word clue-giving games like Taboo or Catch-Phrase are not my favorite, especially when people who know each other well can give ridiculously unrelated words as clues, and due to the inside joke or experience, know exactly what they're talking about right away. If that's the case and we're just going to have a game about who knows who best anyway, I'd rather play the Ungame and make some people uncomfortable :-) I like most other party games fairly well.
I'm not sure what the boundaries of this category are. If there are other computer ai characters, is it a one-person game? For example, are tower defense games one-person? Are 2-d space shooters one-person? There are a plethora of single-player computer games, but they aren't in a solitaire-style, where you will interact with computer enemies, and I think this isn't what you mean. So I'm not sure.
Tough call, probably Spoons (for the chaos), or Spades.
Probably the Settlers of Catan even though I haven't played it. Other than that, I like the game Gettysburg a lot, which is a strategic military game, and I like most other games like that. I like the idea of Risk, but not really actually playing the game, since the system is very crude and simplistic.
Now this is a hard one. Asking this to a gamer is pretty difficult...At the moment I'd probably have to say Planetside 2, due to the enormous continent scale, air vehicles, critical teamwork and rpg-upgrade elements. A few minutes of play is also more rewarding than actual rpgs.
For non-computer games, I like party games a lot and the dictionary game. I would also like to try the Settlers of Catan at some point.
Be a father, and finally start working toward my dream career.
Be saved? This is sort of on the important to selfish scale. Ranking from important to selfish, obviously be saved, then probably be kind and selfless, then be open minded and carefully thinking, then be less annoying, then pay me extra for all of my work efforts.
Depends on the person I'm talking to. If I feel the person cares about me and cares to listen, then I greatly enjoy talking things out with people, getting another perspective and getting it off my chest. I'm fairly sensitive to their interest level though, so I tend to talk about it to fewer people than I could.
Anything ultra processed or instant, although that doesn't apply to this question since it's more like any food made crappy. I'm not remembering any foods that I would say I despise, but I don't like raw red onions, and I don't particularly like ground beef. I also don't especially like most sausage-type products.
Property investment, probably someplace like Charleston.
I cut you!!! >:D :-D
Bible!Jesus!
How to run after what you want, like running the good race. Like me as a fox running up to you and biting you for fun, haha.
Myself doing really stupid things. Good way to learn humility quickly.
Being physically trapped. ^_^
Proverbs 4:7, Job 28:28, James 3:17, Proverbs 8:10-11
I have no idea...all of my past friendships have taught me one thing or another, mostly that they were crappy friends haha. I have been a crappy friend on occasion though.
Hard to point to an incident. I've gradually come to believe love is sacrifice. Not some abstract useless sacrifice, but specifically doing the best thing for someone, regardless of how anyone feels about it.
In my old ethics clas* and many other places, people have tossed around the idea that love is some sort of mutual feeling, and you may become "in love" with someone if they do certain things you think/feel are wonderful. And maybe if they change as a person you may "fall out of love" with them.
I think that definition is perverted and understands nothing about what real love is. I completely understand loving certain aspects of someone, in the sense of *really liking* that about them, just to a higher degree. But the whole "falling in love" thing is ridiculous, and means being smitten/adoring/chemical rush. Personally I like that feeling a lot, but it has nothing to do with the permanence, commitment, and deep conviction of what real love is.
1: Pride/Arrogance
2: Legalism
3: Hiding their struggles/pretense/facade of everything's great
Well God obviously doesn't"accept" our sin, by "accept" I guess you mean loves us despite our sin, works in our life, and paid a way out. The story I would use is exactly what He did for all of us, sending His Son to die and rise again. He then calls us to come to Him and repent. At that point, anyone who comes to Him humbly will experience what you are referring to, and can probably give any number of personal experiences how they struggled with something and God has used life experiences to work in them.
Not sure but I do like Matthew 11:28-30 a lot.
This one is almost not fair, lol. I think we both agree on this one, and I'll let you say it (I'm not referring to Jesus, I think we have to exclude that option since you'd have to pick Him). However with a close second for me is John the disciple.
Probably Daniel, I also like Samuel and Elijah a lot. They all had vision I think, and some literally had visions. They all seemed humble as well. I would pick Daniel though, I like pretty much everything about him.
Probably when things have gotten worse than I expected and then also worked out much better than I would have expected..both surprising. Stretches you as a person.
Questions requiring dissertations.
When I met you. The End.
First I think that most people should be spoken to decently and respected, so even if someone doesn't think that children should "respect" their parents per se or have to earn respect according to the child's specification, I think children should respect their parents at least in general as people. Depending on how the parent is, I think children should have some amount of gratitude for the care that their parents show by providing for them. I do not think children owe their parents unquestioning obedience like some authoritarian parents repeatedly emphasize. This varies based on religious or moral presuppositions, but I think children should try to learn from their parents as much as possible, pick up the good things, move past the bad things, and do what they can to help their parents as well as others. I don't know if you could call it "owe" though. More like "is the right thing to do". If it's just strictly, "owe", probably some basic respect and moderate obedience while they're young.
Aside from doing great things for myself, lol, help other people both in the very long and short run.
Think critically and openly, create accountability, and spend time learning what you like doing while you're young.
I would certainly not live in the past, since I love technology and medical services. I don't know how long the world will stick around though, so I wouldn't want to go too far into the future. I would say either the current era or just slightly into the future.
I admire people who think critically and openly, probably Ravi Z. or C.S. Lewis or some other authors who are similar. I also admire aspects of people who start with little and creatively make something money-wise or just in general; but I find that aspect doesn't compare to the intellectual openness and concise beautiful descriptions.
Getting heavy....I respect you for sticking to your important principles and having a sense of compas*ion for helping people. And for bringing a dose of realism and practicality without losing the ability to be theoretical. Also for being interested and willing to change, not being too arrogant and not taking yourself too seriously.
Probably some sort of large flying bird that doesn't have any natural predator threats, maybe live on a mountain, or rain forest or near interesting cities. Probably Brazil, Alaska, China or other interesting-climate or civilization areas.
I would probably hide in some political offices of various nations that I was curious about, and then perhaps around other people I know who I would like to know what they are really like in private.
I have no idea, I haven't heard many funny "jokes" per se, it's usually a funny line someone says that I find very amusing, like in the IT Crowd, Arrested Development, or Family Guy.
