As a metaphor for life, which of the following would you prefer?

Question

A: To be given a map of the broad area, so you can go wherever you like, by yourself.

B: To be given verbal instuctions of a place you select, and you go there yourself

C: To be brought to the place by someone

Remember the area is a metaphor for life.

Answer 1

A -to be given a map of the broad area so YOU can go wherever you like by yourself.

That enables you to have a guide of life but make your own decisions on different routes in how to get there.

Answer 2

A can be good. However you may not understand this map well, perhaps a different one would be better.

B can be good, and differs little from A, But restricts your options.

C happens no matter which of the first 2 are selected. The person that most often will take you somewhere is you. It just leaves the possibility and the assumption that it is someone else.

One way or the other its none or a mixture.

Even if someone else takes you, you have to follow your own guidance to let them.

Answer 3

I'll take B please, with a sideorder of A.

Answer 4

A; I would forget the instructions and I would not follow someone where I wanted to go.

Answer 5

A- finding my own way on the path of life is what matters,so I can make my own choices that I was conditioned  to believe never existed.To grow  and learn from the wrong turns i may take and to find contentment in finding the way -in the knowledge id travelled along the path just" being"

Answer 6

I felt like a blind man with many people around me offering maps, trying to tell where to go, offer to brought me to the right place and all.

The worst is these men are disagree in many things. One say we have to go north, the other would say we have to go south, etc. And after a while I begin to think that maybe these people are just as blind as I am.

So I choose my way and walk away. Some will say, "There you go that's the right path to follow."

The other might say, "What the h**l are you doing?"

In my mind I'll say, "I'll go whenever and wherever I want to go, f*** with you all."

Answer 7

A  

Answer 8

A

Answer 9

B

Answer 10

Actually, as a philosopher I would have to prefer and apply all 3.

A) Would be the written rules and guidelines to study and go by;

such as the bible or education and etc.,.

B) Would be having your parents or guardians to raise us and

instill certain values into us by teaching morals and discipline.

These are the lessons we earn by trials and errors. We all have

to make our own mistakes; yet we need the set of instructions

pre-installed into our psyches so as to have a point of reference

to fall back on when needed.

C) To be lead by the Lord. This works for me. So, yes..they all

apply and are very much preferred.

Answer 11

A.

with a map I can go anywhere I want, and find the thing that's good for me.

I like to try new things, so it would be hard for me to choose just one when there's so much to do!

And I I'm pretty independent, so c. isn't a good choice for me.

Answer 12

I would opt for the map so i could take my time, wander, go off in different directions but still be able to find my way back,

verbal instructions wouldn't be a good option for me as i'm quite forgetful!

whats the point in getting someone to take you, the excitement is finding your own way, and its fun!
