Answer a Question with a Question...

Would you like to lavish love on a pet if you couldn't have children ?

 

[Rosemarie]

Don't most of us do that anyway...even when we DO have children? (I know I did)

 

[StarSong]

Don't we have endless supplies of love to lavish on humans and other creatures?

 

[Granny B.]

Isn't it sad when people have limited their ability to love?

 

[StarSong]

Do you think that limiting one's ability to love is a protective action meant to limit one's vulnerability?

 

[Kaila]

But can one find joy in other ways?

 

[StarSong]

Haven't you met people whose greatest joys have come from careers, hobbies, traveling, sports, gardening, activism and more?

 

[hollydolly]

Did you feel you got great satisfaction..or even happiness, from your career?

 

[Rosemarie]

Do you think those who manage to achieve their ambitions feel fulfilled?

 

[mike4lorie]

do you feel fulfilled when you are ambitious?

 

[Kaila]

Can you remember some moments in life that felt very fulfilling?

 

[hollydolly]

Would you say you have a good memory ?

 

[StarSong]

What did you say?

 

[hollydolly]

Can you not read ?

 

[StarSong]

Oops. Did I forget to read it?
Have you noticed that memories tend to change and soften over time?

 

[Kaila]

Do some of your memories become cloudy and vague, while others remain vivid and sharp?

 

[hollydolly]

Can you remember how old you were from your first memory ?

 

[Kaila]

Do you prefer to think about more recent ones that you are more certain about?

 

[StarSong]

Perhaps you prefer older memories in which your role has gradually transitioned as per the saying that we're all the heroes of our own stories?

 

[Granny B.]

Are you anyone's hero?

 

[Rosemarie]

Isn't that for others to decide?

 

[hollydolly]

Would you prefer other to decide your future ?

 

[Rosemarie]

Surely it's better for us to take control of our lives, rather than letting others decide for us?

 

[StarSong]

Haven't women spent the last 150 years asserting that exact sentiment?

 

[hollydolly]

Would you have been a suffragette back in the day ?
