I haven't done a post like this in a bit, so I figured that in honor of the new year I'd answer some more deep questions. I'll try not to repeat any I've done in the past- but if I do, I guess we'll be able to see how my line of thinking has changed since!
For a relationship to last, what are the 3 most important things needed? I believe that the 3 most important components in a relationship are humor, honesty, and empathy. Humor, because you need to remain happy and keep yourself (and your partner) smiling, honesty because you need to establish a strong trust and remain true to your partner (while also remaining true to yourself) and empathy, so that you can care for them and help them where needed (and so that they can reciprocate and do the same for you). Naturally, there are so many other important things in relationships... but I see these three as some of the most important. If you had to give up 1 year of your life to give a few hours more to live to a dead person who you really cared about, what would you do? If it was 100% necessary to give a year of my own life... I don't know who I'd give the hours to. Those who have died who I've genuinely cared about spent the last bit of their life in pain, and I'd never want to bring them back to it. In general, I would never give up a year of my life for that very reason. Those who have died are gone and there is nothing to be done about it. You can't reverse or change it- and if you were bringing them back, you'd only be bringing them back to a world of pain and suffering to die AGAIN. I wouldn't want to put anyone I genuinely cared about through that. I've never understood people who said they wished they could bring people back from the dead for that very reason. There are some things that every person tries so hard to ignore in this world, what are the reasons for ignoring something in the first place? I think that people ignore things for one of two reasons: 1). because they don't like/can't handle the reality of something 2). it brings them sadness or discomfort Those are the only two reasons I can come up with for why someone would ignore something. If you're ignoring something because you can't handle it, you're wasting your time- covering you eyes and standing in the middle of an open room and assuming because you can't see others, others can't see you is a poor and misguided assumption. When ignoring the truth, that's essentially what you're doing. You cannot run or hide from it- you can prolong your confrontation with fate, but you can never truly avoid what's meant to happen. Now, before I go over-board: I want my readers to answer these three questions in the comments. At least give me a response to my own answers. I truly do appreciate feedback on my writing- even if I don't write as often as I used to. - Maddie
