If God gave you the chance to take your exit point now ...

Would you choose to die or stay on the planet?

I've made my peace with it, good to go
hartfire · 61-69
I'd go, peacefully and gratefully.
I've written my will and advanced health directive.
I probably have cancer. The specialists keep sending me diagnostic appointments.
But I've been far too mucked about by the system, the lack of clear diagnosis and the insufficient options and info.
If it turns out that I have it, I think the treatment is far worse than the disease,
so I will accept and allow it to kill me.
Old age is no great thing to live through. I've seen enough of the world and I don't like the way things are heading.
I feel great sorrow for those who will live to experience the worst of global warming.
@hartfire I'm with you. 🫂
@hartfire I understand this.

I believe there's gotta be a reason someone will live in a cardboard box, wrapped in news papers, wake up and drag themselves to the nearest McDonalds to steal a pkg of ketchup to mix with hot water from the tap in the bathroom to make soup, which may be the only meal they have that day. It's basic instincts...the will to live at any cost. Meanwhile, someone who sleeps in a comfortable bed in their beach house , has servants tending to their every whim and seemingly not a care in the world , will swallow a bottle of pills, taking their own life , bc why? Maybe they no longer have that basic instinct. 🤷‍♂ Obviously, they've no will to live. 😔

I guess i would probably curl up in a cardboard box 📦 with a belly not so full of homemade heinz soup if i thought it would keep me alive. Thats how i feel today🤷‍♂, tomorrow? Who knows? 🤷‍♂
In reality, I have the chance to make my exit at any time.
I've chosen to stay here for now. But, I really don't know why.
I'm not having a good time here, and really never have.
I'm just waiting for the other shoe to drop. But I've been in such despair lately, I may choose to leave before the shoe drops. IDK.
I'll see how I feel tomorrow.
This is not a theoretical question to me. I have been diagnosed with a uncurable untreatable and fatal illness.
So to be honest, I would want 10 more years, to leave the place better than when I got here. Also I do love that poem you’re named after
@SatyrService I'm so sorry to hear this.
@SpiritSkye That’s very kind of you to say I’m not even sure why I shared that, I’m just adapting to this new shorter future. Thank you for your kindness

Nah, I've fought too hard to be alive. May as well see it through to whatever end.

Staying ..got too much to live for
riseofthemachine · 41-45, M
That's a great question ?
I think everybody or most people in there lives at some stage wished they'd die but the dying of ego brings you life in one way of another .
It's happens unexpectedly.
It's painful but when you go through so much , you get to a point. I'm either going to understand to bring the peace of your going to keep going and don't care . Not caring usually brings suicide thoughts at the end of it in one shape or form .
That's a very good question?
You wouldn't of asking it only you experienced it
Kiesel · 56-60, M
That’s a toughy 🤔
I’m given that option everyday. So far I’ve chosen to hang around.
Jackrules · 56-60
I'll be happy to go back to my real home.
Dying doesn't mean the end, it means the beginning of new experiences.
@Jackrules How do you know that?
Magenta · F
Hard decision. I do like living, yet...
It will come soon enough.
KingofBones1 · 46-50, M
I choose to stay until my dreams in mission is complete
Nitedoc · 51-55, M
I kind of like it here. I'd stay a little longer.
Iwillwait · M
Wow. Tough choice
I consider leaving every day. I pray every night I die in my sleep.
I'm disappointed every morning when I wake up in my bed.
@PhoenixPhail Im very sorry you are suffering that much.
@SpiritSkye It's okay. I just know it's going to be that much better for me on "the other side." I'm looking forward to it.
I'd leave this insane world. I just don't belong here, I never did really.
RedBaron · M
Unless “God” has nothing to do with it.
Punches · 46-50, F
I will probably drop over dead of a heart attack in less than 20 years anyways so why rush my exit?
Why do you persecute me?
Die, the world's getting worse.
Moneyonmymind · 31-35, M
The scary thing is I am not sure
Being a terminal cardiopulmonary patient, on assisted oxygen 24/7, I have made my peace with the Universe, I'm ready to explore the vast Cosmos.
@NativePortlander1970 I hope you aren't suffering or in any pain .
@SpiritSkye Not really, just frustrated
@NativePortlander1970 I am sorry. I know being ill really wears you down .
