Hypothetical Question

Let's say that you met someone, the most amazing person you had ever met. Say you really enjoyed this person's company and found yourself falling for them. Then one day they say to you that they have only six months to live because they have some medical condition (noncontagious). What would you do? Would you love them with all of your heart for ( Read more... )

i'd stay with them for whatever time they had left and love them with all of my heart.

Re: _kallista_ February 12 2004, 10:28:58 UTC

Why? I can imagine, but I want you to explain...Give be a "...because..." Pwease... :-D

Re: sacredwater February 12 2004, 11:51:26 UTC

difficult, are we? - alright it was the "pwease" that did me in :P

simply because they are the person who i love. when i give my heart to someone they get all of it. if it's someone who i am devoted to, things like time have no meaning. and if i knew that they were dying, i would never draw away from them but would share as much with them as i could- put an eternity into six months and create beautiful moments and memories.

If I truly loved someone in this were to happen I would love them for the rest of their time.It would most likely hurt to see them go, but I don't think anyone should die with out loving someone .And who can say that they wouldn't out live you.but then again you could live a 100 more years after they pass.So I don't think anyone should pass up the chance to love someone.It could be the only person that you ever get to love.

p.s.I was at the cd store the other day and decided I hadn't herd Alanis in along time I picked up her cd and thought I would share it

That's my point exactly. The fact that love is love...No matter what happens. :-) Amazingly enough there have been people who say they would run...And I can understand. I suppose, though, that no matter what we say, when in the situation we may react differently. Its one of those things where there is no way to really know for sure unless we are in that moment.

I have Jagged Little Pill around here somewhere on CD and I think it is on my computer, but I'm not sure. I'm a big music buff. Not overly fond of a lot of hip-hop, but there are a few artists. One can find me listening to anything from 2 Live Crew to Lords of Acid to Beethoven to VAST to...well, let's just say that many have said that I have the musical collection (and taste) of a schizophrenic. *laugh* If it's music, I'll try it and probably find something about it I like. :-) I will add you to my friends list as most of my posts are friends only. :-)

I love all different kinds of music.I don't think I could live with out it.
I really miss my fiona apple cd.But latly I have been into a lot of trible music and some forenign stuff like arabic and asian.The only problem is I don't have a clue to what they are saying lol.But it still sounds cool.

I can sing like Fiona. Never is a Promise is one of my favorites by her. My recent addiction has been Type O Negative (aka the old standby). Whenever I can't decide what I want to listen to I will put on Type O.

And if there were no music I would die.

death of what is drk_ghost March 29 2004, 09:35:37 UTC

that would suck, no doubting that. i would prolly love them for all my evil little heart is able to.. cause maybe they can put in a good word with a deity somewhere.. ;)

in all seriousness death isn't something to fear. i treasure death, i prefer her touch to that of some of the living. if you love a person who is dieing, love them all the more.

Re: death of what is _kallista_ March 29 2004, 11:37:25 UTC

Aye, Death held me once and the embrace was the most warm and loving embrace I have ever felt.

Miss you.

drkangel150 April 13 2004, 11:28:46 UTC

If they had my heart...they would have it til the end...I would love them totally.Of course I would be upset at first...but hey,if you have a chance at true love...take it,I'd rather love them totally than run off...never knowing what could have been.

_kallista_ April 13 2004, 13:46:18 UTC

Ahh...Such sweet torture it would be, but well worth it. To know in your own last days that you experienced a love so true. *sigh* Sappy, no?

You are the other Chelle, correct? I'm the "One L Chele" grin. If I am correct then we met for a brief moment or two a handful or years ago. And if youwould like, I can add you to the list so that you can see more of what I have written.

drkangel150 April 13 2004, 13:52:59 UTC

Sappy...but hey,I'm a sap myself.*chuckles*

Yes...that would be me...I'm horrible at keeping in touch with people,my apologies.

And I'd love to be added....most of mine is friends only too,so I can add you back.=)

_kallista_ April 13 2004, 14:00:59 UTC

I am as sappy as molassas, but *shrugs* it is who I am. *grin*

No apologies needed. We met for a few moments forever ago and I think we may have exchanged emails once or twice, but as it happens from time to time there was no real communication. But I saw that you were on Sue's journal, and then you posted a reply to mine so I checked your info and it hit me who you were. Then again, I remember most everyone and everything most of the time.

You shall be added as soon as this is posted. I have mine listed as friends only due to prying eyes of some I would prefer to not see some of the things I have written: ex boyfriends, former friends, etc. It is just more pleasant this way. *grin*

Be well!!
