If you could have anything...

[Beautifull]

if someone could grant you anything in your short-lived lives, what would it be?

I'll start off...
if i could have anything the world could offer...it would be peace and quiet

it's hard to come by that:goof:

[blazeofglory]

There will be an endless list of things. That is the drama of life

[Beautifull]

well then...start listing then!

[firefangled]

There was a poem in Poetry Magazine, it went:

I met an angel of God today,
he made me a deal, stop drinking,
no drugs, for this all war in the world would cease
all nations would join in feeding the world,
there would be no pestilence and no disease.
All this
or stars on my boot heels.

And babe, you should see them,
everyone wants a pair.

[Beautifull]

that sounds so cool!
i want a pair too!lol

[amanda_isabel]

could i get the starts on all of my heels? :)

hmm.. i want servants to pick up after me, and, for the moment, clean my room for me!

perpetual cellphone prepaid credits!

(is a boyfriend out of the question? hmm.. i dont think so.. okay. add boyfriend to the list. :D )

[Beautifull]

hey maybe i want a boyfriend too! well, in particular..one guy to be my boyfriend...
i'm just too shy to ask him out.
...
wait, shouldn't the guy ask the girl out?lol

[amanda_isabel]

lol beautifull! i guesswe're retty much in the same boat with that one-guy-to-be-my-boyfriend part...

beautifull, tell me about yourself! :)

[Beautifull]

well...i'm in Arizona,USA...the most hottest place in the US i believe...i'm a sophomore...and the guy i totally want to be my boyfriend's name is Daniel...usual enough person, i think..i don't think there's one special thing about me...tell me about yourself,amanda

[amanda_isabel]

i'm in Baguio City, Philippines, summer capital of the country that's warming up pretty fast. i just graduated high school (though we're probably the same age since we don;t have middle school here).. school starts in a few weeks...

as for the guy, well, weirdo.. older than me, and i'm hoping (and at the same time not; you know what i mean) that this is just a phase since it's kinda awkward.. nothing (much) between the two of us though.

[Beautifull]

hmm...ya know, you're the third person in three weeks that i've met someone from the philippines...mybe i'll move down there...
have you met Sir Bartholomew? he's from there...
so how old are you right now?

[amanda_isabel]

im 15..

i haven't officially met sir bartholomew yet, but he did reply to one of my posts on some thred and i sent him a PM just a little while ago..

notify me when you're moving here! lol

[Beautifull]

lol..

i just turned sixteen...
"sir" is a cool guy...you should get to know him better...hey,is he on right now?

[amanda_isabel]

don't think he's online right now, but yeah, i am looking forward to getting to know him.

i'll be turning sixteen in a few weeks, but i prefer saying i'm 15, since i still am!

[Beautifull]

lol...you're right...
just tell me when's your b-day so i can wish you one!
i hate being misinformed about anything!

[Pensive]

Hmmmm...if I could have anything...just one thing....and that is...happiness. Now, is that too much to ask for? Just this permanent happiness which is oblivious of any pain, ignorant of any hurt, indifferent to any criticism some people cruelly offer at times...


im 15..


i just turned sixteen...

Count me in, in this 15-16 group. I think there are some more of us lit-netters out here. :p

[Beautifull]

hey pensive! welcome...so where are you from?...where it's close to 3A.M.

[amanda_isabel]

wow, pensive, 15-16 group? seriously? i didn't think so.

being misinformed sucks, lol!

[Beautifull]

it does doesn't it?

Hmmmm...if I could have anything...just one thing....and that is...happiness. Now, is that too much to ask for? Just this permanent happiness which is oblivious of any pain, ignorant of any hurt, indifferent to any criticism some people cruelly offer at times...
-pensive

no it isn't ...but life isn't fair...and there's things that we go through so that when we have one of those perfect times...it will make it seem brighter than it really is...

[amanda_isabel]

permanent happiness.. hmm.. crazy thought: given that permanent happiness denotes a bland, mundane existence (since we wouldn;t even know we were happy) maybe the answer is to watch people suffering? sadist! lol

[Beautifull]

i've never thouht of that...hmmm...maybe i don't want permanent happiness...

[amanda_isabel]

yeah.. the idea of it though is pretty tempting.. i think i had that as a kid, lol :)

[Beautifull]

hmmm... i tink it's time i take a nap..i'm snoozin upright...if i fall asleep here..i think i'll wake up with the keyboard keys on my face...lol.

hey..read my poem...i want your opinion:I Just Can't Live Without You ..that's the title..if you go to my profile...i think you'll find it under threads started by Beautifull...see ya laterz...

[Pensive]

hey pensive! welcome...so where are you from?...where it's close to 3A.M.

Thanks for the welcome! Hmmm and when I am not in Neverland, then I am in the Land of Pure (Pakistan). :p



wow, pensive, 15-16 group? seriously? i didn't think so.

Heh well these days kids of eight or nine are quite clever enough to join a forum but hey I hope you didn't mistake me for one. :p


no it isn't ...but life isn't fair...and there's things that we go through so that when we have one of those perfect times...it will make it seem brighter than it really is...

I would rather not have my grandfather dead than seeing him wake up from death.


permanent happiness.. hmm.. crazy thought: given that permanent happiness denotes a bland, mundane existence (since we wouldn;t even know we were happy) maybe the answer is to watch people suffering? sadist! lol

Heh, nah, you aren't a sadist. Not everybody thinks of Siddhartha to be sane either...but as for the dull life then....well I would be happy, why would I care? :p

[amanda_isabel]

Pen, i always thought you were older than me, that's all.. (but hey, i would love to be mistaken for eight or nine! even in my sophomore year of high school i was mistaken for a college student so you can imagine why :D)

i do agree with you about the grandfather part. (besides, wouldn;t that be a gross prospect?)

the whole point of not having perfect, perpetual happiness was that if we were always happy, we wouldn;t even realize we were happy, kinda like if we were in the light always, how would we even know about the dark? (now where have i read that before?) well anyway..

i do think, though, that we all had that perfect happiness when we were little-er.. when we were younger and knew nothing of worldly concerns...

p.s. thanks for saying i'm not a sadist :D

[Beautifull]

huh...nice...so where did you say you were from pensive?

[blazeofglory]

well then...start listing then!

I am afraid the list will be so long that ALL THE TREADS will be too short for this.

[Beautifull]

well, then list your top ten...

or is [I]that[I] too hard for you?

[sprinks]

Well, no matter how many things I list there'd still be more...

Theres one thing I would like, I guess, and that is not to be in so much pain. I have Hypermobility Joint Syndrome, and it's like CONSTANT pain. And it sucks. I can do some cool things with my arms and legs and stuff because I'm so flexible... but sometimes I'd rather be normal and not in pain. I had 2 knee operations about a year and a half ago when I was 14... And it's hard knowing that if I have children they're going to have this condition.
But having the condition has really helped me become the person I am, and I wouldn't want to change that....
So I'd like to have someone get rid of the pain that comes with the condition, because sometimes it makes life hard.

I'd also like a new computer, video camera and digital camera :p
I think the list is nearly endless though :lol:

[Beautifull]

i don't think anyone would want to be in pain...physically or mentally....
i'd like a new computer too!mine runs too slow...lol

[Beautifull]

i'd wish for all the time in the world and all my friends to be on so i can stay on LitNet all day! is that too much to ask for?

[Niamh]

If i could have anything right now, it would be for my back, shoulder, chest and neck to be better, so i can finally sit straight, and not think i'm walking around like a rigid old granny. :( that when i stand up after siting for a while, i dont have to straighten myself before i walk... i'm 26 not 89...

[Beautifull]

ohhh...please get better soon Niamh!!!

i wouldn't want any friends to be in pain, then i would be in pain from seeing them in pain! that's what i want.

[Tsuyoiko]

I would like to go back to 3rd November 2006 and ignore that PM.

[PoeticPassions]

I would have teleportation abilities.

[Beautifull]

freedom from responsibilities...just for one day!

[Zee.]

I would like to go back to 3rd November 2006 and ignore that PM.

[Beautifull]

aww! don't ruin my hopes(yet)!!!:bawling:

:lol:yeah, i know it's hard to find a decent one....

[islandclimber]

the will to do the one thing I will never be able to do...

[Beautifull]

the will to do the one thing I will never be able to do...

that sounds scarily like a break-up to someone who annoys you, but you still love them!!

[islandclimber]

that sounds scarily like a break-up to someone who annoys you, but you still love them!!

If only it was as simple as that... I'm not sure I even fully understand what it is I will never be able to do... oh well... :sick:

[Beautifull]

If only it was as simple as that... I'm not sure I even fully understand what it is I will never be able to do... oh well... :sick:

:lol: at least you realized there is something you'l never be able to do!

[islandclimber]

:lol: at least you realized there is something you'l never be able to do!

hahaha yeah I suppose that's true. I suppose looking at it that way, there are an infinite number of things I'll never be able to do. and i'm perfectly content with that...

I did have something in mind though, that I am not content never being able to do... that my heart always wants to do, but my mind will never allow... oh well, enough of my nonsense :p

[Beautifull]

that my heart always wants to do, but my mind will never allow... oh well, enough of my nonsense :p

oh that's a mind-twister!:sick:a very good point though.:idea: and not anywhere near nonsense!:thumbs_up

[Joreads]

aww! don't ruin my hopes(yet)!!!:bawling:

:lol:yeah, i know it's hard to find a decent one....

No hope ruining here my friend I wish you all the best. and the good ones are not that hard to find you just need to keep your eyes and mind open;)

[Beautifull]

No hope ruining here my friend I wish you all the best. and the good ones are not that hard to find you just need to keep your eyes and mind open;)

usually though, the good ones you meet are already girlfriend-alized or married.:(

[dodong]

'girlfriend-alized'.....i like the word!

[1n50mn14]

I'd be able to lead my double life of horses and clubbing with ease, as well as traveling. I'd have a stable smack dab in the middle of London with 7 acres or so, and be involved in a long running production of Rocky Horror Picture Show.
I want too much.
I can't define in just one word.
Maybe I should just say, 'Freedom.'

[Niamh]

usually though, the good ones you meet are already girlfriend-alized or married.:(

Not always! :D

[Lily Adams]

I'll have to second what the creator of this thread said. Simply peace in life.

[JuniperWoolf]

I'd like to develop a good life philosophy, make a home and a family for myself and also to acquire a nice red country bike that looks something like this:
http://static.howstuffworks.com/gif/classic-motorcycles-7.jpg

[MSDGreen]

The Tree of Life. Now that would be cool.

[Zee.]

Hmm...

if you guys are given the opportunity to have anything, ANYTHING in the world, why would you waste that opportunity on yourself?
I'd end all forms of suffering. Those who are dying in pain, starvation, cold, abandonment, abuse.. i'd end it all

[weltanschauung]

I second that because I totally agree with you lima, but I would also like something for myself and that would definitely be a girlfriend. To some it may not matter because they are apparently used to having girlfriends... but I never had one... and I want one badly before I die. Why? I could name a number of reasons that could probably be regarded as stupid by modern protestants, so I'd better keep my fingers off the keyboard for that matter. Just one is all I would ask :)

Is that an India? I dunno much about bikes... but I saw a similar one in a movie and they said it was an India.

[Zee.]

You mean an indian? :D cute

[Maximilianus]

I meant that lima, thank you very much for pointing it out. I got languages mixed :p

[Helga]

a life..

[Olga4real]

True love

[Maximilianus]

a life..
Are you not happy enough with the life you have and want another?

True love
I want that too and I can give it. The problem is the lack of someone to give it to. :(

[Olga4real]

Hmmm... the same here. Though we need to look around, maybe he/she is somewhere around.

[kilted exile]

A portobello mushroom croissant - think I'll go get one.........

[Maximilianus]

I hope you're right!!!!

[crystalmoonshin]

I wish I could teleport myself to any place in the world, pretty much like in the movie "Jumper". Telekinesis would be great, too, since I'm less than 5 ft :bawling: and it's difficult for me to get books down from the top shelves.

And like Maxi, Beautiful and Amanda, I wish for a romantic partner, too, coz I've never had a boyfriend in my entire life!

I want the same, telekinesis and teleportation. And I would also love very much to be able to travel in time, in such way that I can check if whatever historians say is true or just a sovereign lie. I hope you can get what you want moon ;).

[crystalmoonshin]

And I would also love very much to be able to travel in time, in such way that I can check if whatever historians say is true or just a sovereign lie.

Oh yeah, that, too, since I decided to study history now. The ability to time-travel would be a great help. Then maybe I can see those cool dinosaurs eons ago. :)

Sounds like you need it badly. If I were a god I'd be merciful enough :)

[Beautifull]

more time...

[Maximilianus]

The ability to give more time to people who need it, including myself ;)

[Beautifull]

if time was only able to be handed out...

[Maximilianus]

A more than fair wish:
To want to swim,
Being other than a fish ;)

[blazeofglory]

And I wish to have a world where we all are wild beings, far from this civilization.

[Beautifull]

And I wish to have a world where we all are wild beings, far from this civilization.

mmm...wild? like the cavemen? or wild and free?

[Scheherazade]

A fresh cup of tea would have been nice just about now!

[Maximilianus]

mmm...wild? like the cavemen? or wild and free?

I could do well in a cave though I prefer a hut on a tree :nod:

[crystalmoonshin]

And I wish to have a world where we all are wild beings, far from this civilization.

A noble savage?
I'd like to live in the mountains which are near seas. I'd forage or fish for food or hunt. (But I think I won't be able to kill a mammal since I have a soft spot for them... er, us.) Pretty much what the girl in 'Island of the Blue Dolphin" does for survival. But I'd miss the internet and my laptop...

[Scheherazade]

A little energy to make me get out of this sofa would be nice.

[Nightshade]

a second set of arms so I could finish cleaning this kitchen at double speed would be nice!

[blazeofglory]

well then...start listing then!

I cannot have space enough here.

[Maximilianus]

I'd like to live in the mountains which are near seas. My fave spot on Earth too.


But I think I won't be able to kill a mammal since I have a soft spot for them... Neither will I, I believe.


But I'd miss the internet and my laptop...I could do without those... but only for a lil while :p

I'd rather take the laptop with me
to the mountains by the sea
surf a little on the Web
while suspended from a tree :)

[JuniperWoolf]

And I wish to have a world where we all are wild beings, far from this civilization.

Yeah, me too (very, very much).

[crystalmoonshin]

I'd rather take the laptop with me

while suspended from a tree :)

:lol: and you better bring lots of batteries. (That is, if what you have in mind is a place untouched by civilization, without electricity.)

[Maximilianus]

:lol: and you better bring lots of batteries. (That is, if what you have in mind is a place untouched by civilization, without electricity.)

Ah, the batteries will be the most serious issue. I'll be needing a full lifetime supply of them :p

[Beautifull]

i wish for someone to talk to me...

[Maximilianus]

i wish for someone to talk to me...

Someone here, there or anywhere?
Be more specific please....
....
... :p

[Beautifull]

Someone here, there or anywhere?
Be more specific please....
....
... :p

i was getting REALLY bord!!:D:lol:

[Haunted]

someone who can do my work so I don't have to!

[Maximilianus]

someone who can do my work so I don't have to!

Someone who can hire me to do their work, for a very good salary, until I get tired and want someone else to do that work :p

[Haunted]

Someone who can hire me to do their work, for a very good salary, until I get tired and want someone else to do that work :p

HAHA how about someone who pays me a good salary for doing nothing!

[Maximilianus]

HAHA how about someone who pays me a good salary for doing nothing!

:lol: Splendid idea!
DOING NOTHING IS THE BEST OF ALL JOBS :lol:

[Beautifull]

haha..I agree. I want a job...

[Beautifull]

If I could have anything, I think I would want food right now...I've been really hungry lately...

[*Classic*Charm*]

I want my horse sound again. And money to be able to ride him :(

[Beautifull]

I wish Classic Charm could get what they want....

[Beautifull]

If I could have anything, I wish I had a peaceful and happy mind...
