..What would it be, and why? I would ask myself whether I would be happy. I know this is incredibly generic, but it's all I'd be interested in knowing about my future. I don't care about money or possessions, I would just like to be a happy person.

What would you do if the answer was no? Or if the answer was yes. Do you think that what ever you did would change the answer?

Well if I was told "yes" then I would be happy and more confident with my current life, knowing that everything would be okay. If the answer was no then I believe that the future can be changed, and it would be a wake up call for me to make a huge change with my life.

Hi Pat. That is exactly what I was going to ask. What if the answer is NO. Gemma, if the answer was NO how would you know what to change?

I would ask myself if it was as difficult to get to where I am then as I thought it would be now, if that make any sense. I would be curious to know how hard it was for me to get to the goals I've set for myself, I would see how old I was when I asked myself that and be able to judge how long it probably took me to get there, so there would be no need to ask anything further.

I think I would ask myself the same thing. I would love to know if I will ever have the chance to be totally happy with myself too.

It would be, how would i die.. haha =D I guess that would be very interesting, especially when it's totally unexpected given my lifstyle now.. haha =D However, upon learning how i would die, i won't do much changes to my current life though i would want to fight against it. But when life is meant to end, it does naturally somehow, without us realising it or even knowing it. It can strike suddenly out of nowhere, which makes it real exciting.. haha

To be honest I would rather have my future self give me one piece right now!

I consider myself as a happy person based on the fact that I have good health. I may not be rich. But I am fulfilled in the sense that I do not find myself in the hospital bed.I will want to thank the almighty God for his goodness in my life

Hi GemmaR, I feel that whether or not we will be happy in the future is decided by us today. Decide to be happy now and you need have no worries about the future. Happiness does not depend on anyone or anything outside of ourselves. Blessings.

I would ask my future self if it would be the right thing to move across the country to be with my adult children. I am seriously considering it--they need me and I need them. I moved away so that they would become more independent and I was homesick. One has become independent, another is a mess. Their father is there but isn't much help with emotional support. So I'm considering moving back if I can sell my house in the next couple of years. I'd like to know if it's the right decision!
