All of us want plenty of things and but hardly life can provide you with all you want, and as an economist we must make a rational choice out of scarce resource.

I voted Life!
The joy is in the journey...
:nod: Very good topic, Isidro!
Liberty, without it we cannot pursue any of our other needs and desires. We take our freedom to talk on this website, find friends, love who we wish as something that comes naturally; yet it is something that people die for everyday.
I voted Love since you didn't have the option of "Retire" on here.
Life is a giver and of course a generous giver and all I may ask from life is a very lively and vital life

Ah, the original poster has gone; but the thread and question lives on...
Well, right now I want someone to fold my laundry! A nice young masseuse would be good to give me a massage...I wonder if that falls under love.
Then, money to pay the masseuse and get rid of my rickety car...or fix it up...
Then the freedom to carry a machine gun to the grocery store; just to see the looks on people faces...excuse me miss, do you have any bavarian cream yogurt...:icon_bs:
Yes, nobody quite like Isy...though, I haven't had quite as many of those highway assault nightmares in the last 6 months:reddevil:Quote:

I want life to give me what I want instead of what it wants to give according to its whims of the moment http://smiles.kolobok.us/remake/angry2.gif
I wouldn't mind having an herb garden one day. Besides that, I just want to learn about stuff and have David stay alive for as long as possible (hopefully even longer than me).
I want a few things:
To be happy (i generally am)
To have my book become well-known, and have more published
To have good friends
I think that is all :)
