Thread: The most precious gift.....

I voted good health. The rest are things you can work on, but good health is what you have or have not.
My mother and my brother have chronix illnesses, and i have seen the effects of that.
Good health is priceless.

Without time, nothing is possible!

You know, TIME is all that keeps everything from happening at once!

I can't believe eternal salvation isn't a choice. That is what I'd pick, hands down.

I for one, simply chose to avoid a religious debate. So said the next best thing.

I chose love for this reason. Love leads to the next, for lacking love there would be no salvation and lacking the ability to love you can not attain it. Thank God its a gift given to all of us, only warped in some very few.

Some questions based on current poll results:

1) Love is clearly the highest choice so far. For those who chose love, do you mean a particular type of love? Feeling love FOR someone/something, or feeling loved BY someone (or something?)?.

2) Currently Time outranks good health. Would you rather live forever with poor mental and physical health then? I dont think I would, since I know how much a burden on those I love poor health can be. What do you guys think?

3) Freedom ranks way down there- getting only 3 votes so far. Does that mean we dont value our freedom or just that we value it less than one of the others? I mean we go to war under the banner of freedom often enough. Have you ever heard of going to war under the banner of love?

I can see this turning into either a religious or war thread- I hope it does neither in depth. These are all qualities that cover all religions equally and whilst it may be the reason for your answer, i'm not looking for a religious debate. Just a philosophical one. :

I voted time, but more specifically second chances. When you realize you've come through something that should've killed you, you get thankful for that.

Good health for me. Then I can make time to work on the other choices.

i think PEACE, well inner peace anyway.
life is full of crud, we die in the end, undisputed.
to live one's life withe contentment, is there more???

give me my peace and quiet anyday.
