What if?

Unknown userMember08 Mar 2018, 6:44 pm AEDT

What if?

I want to create a space where we can use our imaginations...

there are so many of us on here who are so very creative in so many remarkable ways...

I also believe that we are all intelligent in differing aspects of thinking

we support and show compassion to one another

many of us feel different...as though we don't fit in....don't belong...

is this really because of society's way of treating us....stigma...I am not diminishing in any way people's struggles...they are very real...

we have humour...

or is it another phenomena

what if:::

we have travelled here from another zone

we are here to observe the medical profession...I love this one...

we communicate with each other....in the real world?

which is our virtual world?

So what if

willing to add some thoughts? anyone?

Sooohhhhh anyone who wants to put forward an idea....add the far side....who is bored...

What if

I am just adding a few names .....not excluding anyone...just struggling to remember...

@CheerBear @outlander @Zoe7 @NameUnknown @Former-Member @Former-Member @eth @Mazarita @Former-Member@Silenus @Faith-and-Hope @PeppiPatty @Appleblossom @Former-Member @soul @Determined

@eudemonism @Friendconnect

please if joining in add names I have left out...Out of respect I have not included at this time those who are particularly struggling so as not to offend....

What if free will is just a trap and the right to choose is the lure?

What if there is no such thing as free will and we are all programmed like ants to do as we do from before we were born.

What if expecting the unexpected makes the unexpected the expected and the expected the unexpected

What if it all doesn't matter at the end of the day..

we are all individuals and how we think ..react changes the what ifs anyway

Interesting..

ants are intelligent and very hard workers...they have enormous strength and determination..carrying their findings back to the many underground mazes of their nests..

What if we said 'so what' every time we came up with a new 'what if'?

Living with cPTSD phobias I am hit with the' what ifs' so many times every day. It's hard to always remember to do the 'what then' thinking and planning to minimise the fright of the 'what if' outcome, especially when in a panic causing flight or freeze response.

Re: What if?

@eth Hi eth interesting you should say 'so what' my daughter said the same thing when I talked to her about this thread. She says as long as you lead a happy life it doesnt matter whether there is life after death, whether you have the most expensive car, biggest house etc. being happy with what you have now in the present is the most important thing. I tend to agree.
