PANDORA’S BOX
I have been away for a while, (my choice).I have been reading the blogs and have been hoping to be inspired to write something.
It seems we have had many different blogs on many different subjects, some from those that have been around awhile, others from new members, and that is always good to see.
So why have I called this blog “Pandora’s Box”, Simply, because I am going to put forward a hypothetical scenario where you, the readers, may make a decision. This blog is hopefully to encourage all to think about the consequences of any and all decisions we make.
I must also point out, "THAT IT IS NOT MEANT TO JUDGE IN ANYWAY, ANYONE'S RESPONSE" It would be good to see how we all think i guess.
And here it is.
Inside a box that has been delivered to you is a guarantee of a lifetime free of worry, full of happiness, enough health and wealth for you to live as long as you wish, not just for you, but for each member of your family. All you have to do is open it.
Along with the box, came a note, and the note reads,
“IF YOU CHOOSE TO OPEN THIS BOX AND RECEIVE ALL THAT IS GOOD AND REWARDING FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY, A PERSON AND ALL THERE FAMILY THAT YOU HAVE NEVER MEET OR KNOW, WILL SUFFER THE EXACT OPPOSITE”.
There life will be full of misery and illness, hunger, they will be poor, they will never again experience any sort of happiness, and they will live shorten lives.
Now here’s the question,
“DO YOU OPEN THE BOX”?
No matter what your answer, I’d like to know your reasoning for your choice.
I’d also like you treat the dilemma, as if it could be a real one.
Any member is free to respond. Will there be any takers????
yes it is something very different from me.
i shall pop back from time to time to respond and to say hi and thanks.
Hope everyone is well.

I see that you have seen past the answers and looked at the reason of the answers.
Agreed 100%,
But dont you think it is possible that whatever is in the box could be "mind" altering, thus giving all that i said was possible.
On the other side, Isn't unhappiness also just a state of mind?
My beautiful Austrian friend.
No i'm not being mean, just posing a question that promotes people to think about the consequences of decisions they make and how they view there choices to do such a thing.
