“Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it”
To Question one. If I had the world before me and freedom to have what I will. I think I would pursue vainglory and world renown. But once having all under my thumb I would still not be sated and would not have profited my soul. But power quote I would enable me to establish justice and order. I could do much good. But at what cost having the cares of the world ones shoulders. Thus I think I would in my flesh rather a domain and the ability to keep it and thus be responsible for only part of the earth. I would wish to have the will of others willing submitted to mine. For alas it is the desire of the flesh to be God or at least a demi-god. Such was the sin of Adam. But this is would be fearful responsibility and also a horribly sinful desire to be as God. Alas Instead pray that I may willing submit to the right sovereign of man the Holy Triune God. May it be that His will for mine life become my will and that a useful servant I become. But truly I greatly desire to influence the government and laws of this county and lead a family. I also desire to be able to spend time both in study and discussion of various ideas (math, politics, theology, law, ….).

Answer A: I want to do something artistic or authorish or brainy with my life. I would like to grow to be like Sticky Washington of the Mysterious Benedict Society, only with a wacky sense of humor. I would also do more with sports.
Answer B: Because I'm happen to only be a freshman. But, I can increase and am increasing my store of information and wisdom by submitting to such tortures as sitting at a desk for more than an hour at a time (gasp), staring at Predicate Nouns and Predicate Adjectives.
Cheyenne Ayda & @3d6361c54e8593b002f3391ea29e2bb9 : Ladies,I am afraid that you have crossed the proverbial line! (but so did I so I guess I am out too ;D )
@061ba395175a4beb766460f416ddad3b :We understand. (British Literature has that effect on people :)
Rennuke : Well I could go on some fiendishly outrageous vein about how I plan on becoming a diplomat who will use the recent tension between Turkey and Israel to draw the Russians into an invasion of Turkey(backed with false confidences that the USA will do nothing), which I will have 'conveniently' warned the populace would happen with the current people in government; I then proceed to win the upcoming election, and launch an attack on the war mongering Russia, along with my new allies Israel and the European Union; all this would end with me ,after trouncing Russia(and China being caught by a stray nuke), declaring that a new country would be formed by the victorious nations (my nation being the only one that was not ravaged by the war)which I would lead of course,and then I end it all by declaring a dark age where I destroy all technology except my impregnable fortress in the mountains of Tibet.
I will spare you that well told story.
Instead I would like to become a History Prof., doing a little traveling now and then, and do a lot of growing in Christ.

Uh, oops! I read the second before I answered the first. I have this dreadful propensity for looking ahead when I'm told not too. Heh.
ReplyDeleteAh, well, I did, too. :)
