Given the choice, what would you choose?

Question

If you were to get back everything you've ever lost, place it in a pile, and then place everything you've since gained in another pile, and were told you could only keep one pile, which one would you choose?

What does this reveal about you?

Answer 1

i would keep the old pile when that was all my own

Answer 2

Wow, this is really hard!

I have thought long and hard about this and to be honest I couldn't do it! There is no way I could choose because I have lost so many people in my life but I have 2 great kids and a fantastic partner. I mean yes it would be great to have everything and everyone back that I have lost but not at the expense of the people I now have around me.

I think this probably reveals that I cannot put a price on love or people, at least I hope so.

However when it comes to material things, I would choose everything I have now over things I have lost, there is no use pining for things that are long gone and that you have no hope of ever getting back. You have to make the most of now and the future.

Hope I make sense! LOL

Answer 3

personally, I would keep the pile of what i gained. After all, these things happen for a reason. I lost what I did, and gained something better in return, so I would forget the past and the things I've lost.

Answer 4

I'd keep the pile I gained

Answer 5

I would choose everything I've ever lost because honestly, I've lost alot of good things and even though, I've gained good things just as well--it doesn't seem to be as good as what I've could have kept. What do YOU think this says about me?

Answer 6

I would like to say that I would keep what I have gained, but I don't honestly think I would. I have lost so much that given the chance to take it all back, I probably would. I think this reveals that I have trouble letting go of the past and I need to learn to move on with my life instead of constantly thinking of how things used to be.

Answer 7

the one i gained :)
