If… (Week 69)

This is week sixty-nine in my personal “If… Project” in which I answer questions from the book “If… (Questions for the Game of Life)”

There are 125 pages of this book, each with four questions. I plan to take one page each week and answer the questions as thoroughly and honestly as I am able. In addition, I invite you to answer the questions along with me, whether it be in the comments section, your own personal blog, or just within your own thoughts.

Perhaps in doing so, we will get to know each other better, but even more importantly, get to know ourselves better.

This week’s questions:

If you could keep only one thing that is in your bathroom right now, as the only thing in there forever, what would you save?

I know it’s pretty sophomoric, but there is a street sign in my bathroom that I’ve had for over ten years now. I found it in the trash back when I was in high school, and kept it because I knew it would be a great piece of decor for a bathroom. As I get older, I find I am more and more tempted to be more mature and get rid of it, but the child inside refuses to let me get rid of it.

If you could have prevented one event in history, what event would you eliminate?

Oh good God, how is someone supposed to pick from all the wars, natural disasters, terrorist attacks, crimes, etc. I suppose I’ll pick the holocaust. But I’m pretty torn up about it.

If you had to rename your hometown, what would you call it?

NickyNaxLandia-o-Rama-Lama-Ding-Dong

If you could teach your children only one lesson in life, what would it be?

To always be the grandest version of the greatest vision of themselves.

Those are my answers to this week’s questions. What are yours?
