What's on your mind?

Thinking about hypothetical situations. If you had 30 seconds to evacuate due to a natural disaster, no back up plan, and unable to return ever, what is important? If you had 30 seconds to tell someone something and then that chance is forever gone, what would you say? I don’t expect this to be answered, just writing what’s on my mind atm. If you could go back in time and change 3 things in your life, would you or would you keep everything the same? Butterfly effect…etc.
1. probably would grab my emergency bag by the front door, a nerf blaster, goose feather necklace, PC and belt then i'd scoot. the rest can burn if it has to.
2. "not a day has passed for me that didn't already belong to you"
3. i'd def try to change things but not for me directly.
- would make my dad's dad stay instead of bailing on his family when my dad was just a kid.
- would make my mom's dad be less of an overbearing *kitten* and more of a dad when she needed it the most.
- would make my brother get out from under the evil old lady 4th grade teacher he had at the time, and instead get in the classroom with the 4th grade teacher I ended up with the following year.
i figure those 3 things would cause a massive butterfly effect in the best ways for my own family so i'd def roll the dice on it.4 -
I wish we could make some people wear a sign that says "i are an idiot"2

Various tragedies -Two of my mom’s 14 yr old cats died today. One was Shadow, who I’ve mentioned was sick. Also his fluffy orange brother D’Angelo or “DD”
“DD” was the one who got to play mom when their actual mom weened them off her so they all suckled on DD. 🤣 Poor guy was all wet. He was very sweet and a rich pumpkin sort of orange.
My aunt just got her leg amputated at the knee. She had some sort of heart failure???? Her legs hadn’t been doing well and ya, she lost one. It’s hard to get any information. For a while we didn’t even know if she was still alive. She’s my mom’s last relative and mom’s talking about seeing her in “the next few months”.... like her life is just so busy that she has to wait. 😒 Her life, her sister. 🤷🏻♀️13 -

18 years ago today I became a mom for the first time. This was how he chose to celebrate his golden bday. God I love this kid.😭

I love these kind of threads! - thank-you! Mind engaging, and fun!
Hope you have a wonderful, inspiring, beautiful day of your life today! Enjoy your moments❣
#1 - Work bag and purse (right by the door and well supplied for at least 1 day meal, clothes - that is an instantaneous grab literally right beside my keys - so I'd also grab the 1L water from cupboard and my laptop (which also has the power cable attached b/c the battery sucks) and be out the door - no need for shoes - I have like 5 pair in my car!
#2 - I'm sorry I didn't know how to be more present - I'm haunted by it in retrospect of my 'life-scape' and am trying to learn from my 'absence'. I loved you (all) more than I ever showed.
#3 - Change 3 things...yes (*kitten* the butterfly effect - I have regerts!)
a) followed my 'dreams' - just to know
b) been stronger, earlier (in my will to be 'me')
c) was 'able' to express myself to those I care about, and what they did and or do mean to me

My Garmin watch recently died, and I replaced it with a newer version and includes a “body battery” metric — why can’t I recharge my body battery? Pain? Stress? Being anxious? …it lies?!?! I’m pretty sure most days it’d read “dead” — at the end of day — instead of “drained” if that were an option 😂3

Ooh boy....
30 seconds to evacuate?
Idealistically I'd like to think I'd have the smarts to grab my car keys, credit card and my iphone. But knowing me I'd panic and grab my books or whatever else was between me and the front door.
Course that's got to mean that every living body makes it out the door as well. If not, then definitely my dogs first.
30 seconds to tell someone something?
I really do love you even though I've made terrible mistakes and can never go back. So let's talk, I mean really really talk...about everything.
change 3 things in my life? Or keep the same?
That's a good question because I have no clue. If I didn't do everything I've done, I wouldn't be who I am. As often as I've failed, it's been a huge learning experience as well. BUT if I did change 3 things these would be them:
1) Don't be afraid of what people think of you; you don't matter to them as much as you think(I'm talking acquaintances and complete strangers, not friends/family). And if you let it get to you, it'll affect your whole being for the rest of your life.
2) Say yes to trying new things instead of coming up with ridiculous excuses because you're afraid of failure or looking stupid.
3) Live each day in a way you can look back and be proud/happy with the way you lived it.
I didn't answer this before because no one thing was hitting me just right. My mind was a jumble every time I tried. 3 -
So true! Thank you!@MelG7777 Happy Birthday to your son! It's amazing how fast they grow.
The blink of an eye is never as real as when we watch our children.
Oh that’s great he enjoyed it too! Thank you!slimgirljo15 wrote: »

So late to this party (as per usual):
1. My cats (my child naturally follows me since he's 9, so I don't worry about him).
2. "You will live in my heart for all time."
3. a.) I'd not sleep with certain people, b.) completely avoid other people and c.) have found a way to do that art history trip to France when I was in college.2 -
No, don't hide away! It was a thought-provoking question!! It doesn't hurt to think......most of the time. 3 -

It's a brewery in Roncesvalles village which is a kind of a fun spot. Although I'd rather order and have it delivered cause it's a bit inner city for me.1 -

I looked it up and will try it if I ever see it in my travels. Doesn’t help @Analog_Kid though, does it?1 -
I can come up with all the romantic reasons I want for why I do the things I do, or anyone else for that matter...
The fact is the brain just does what it does and the rest is just the brain thinking about it after...
The brain doesn't know psychology, or philosophy...
It obeys chemistry, and biology...5 -
