Sorry, I suppose I’m on a wine-fueled roll…

Ok, here’s the rule: whichever (if any) you would choose to give up, that means you give up any past association or knowledge with said choice, INCLUDING any of those that are a natural sense.  (To go easy, I’ll leave it at past association only, so you can still gain the “lost” aspect in the future.)  In other words, for example, if you choose to give up sight, that means you never got to see with your eyes.  (But that also means you likely don’t know what you’ve missed!!)  Yeah, it’s meant to be a riddlyish conundrum wink  But you get at least the benefit of knowing my choice, which was “wealth.”  (I’d hope I could still become who I am without it..)


OH, BTW, SORRY TITLE IS WRONG, YOU DON’T HAVE TO POST- GIVE UP ANYTHING.

HAHA, and blame the wine, I forgot to make sight a choice altogether red face
let’s consider “sight” to be write-in choice number 7

What if, instead of giving something up, we made a trade? I give up my wealth, because after my first Shpongle concert, I’ve wanted nothing more than to join the band and be one of their masked staged dance-performers! I give up any past association with my material currency in order to from the endless-bounty of benefit which is the spiritual payoff that Shpongle enlightens with!

As for my lover? Her name is Shpongolia, and only Gaia reaches her beauty!

See what you did Sister! My wealth went down the drain and all I want to do is exemplify the Shpongled sights I’ve graciously been audience for! I’m about to trade my college education to make some dough off of the books, artwork and spiritual practice Shpongle has bestowed unto me!

It’s gunna be a good trip. Thank you sister!

you’re welcome, and it wasn’t designed to be easy wink  that which we love the most, we must perhaps test with what we think we know????

I also choose wealth.  Thought about education, but I may not be able to appreciate Shpongle to the full extent that I have without my education in music!  Also, I could definitely give up most if not ALL other music…Shpongle does it all just fine for me grin

I’ll go for education. I read too much anyway. It’s very likely that I would be my old over-educated self in 3 or 4 years again anyway.
