Have You Ever In Your Life Wondered
what was around the corner, or up the road, or around the bend?

What have you wondered about?

1. This might sound vain ...
but reading the original post I wondered how many people that I work with , have been around in stores and etc. think that I am attractive.

4. I'm one who wonders.
When I meet somebody I wonder what they have for breakfast, or why they've chosen to wear the shoes they have on. Stopped at a stoplight I look at the old man in the truck next to me and wonder if his wife is alive, or if he was ever married. I wonder why people are afraid and why some are not. I wonder where I'll be in six months. I wonder if I'm exactly like everybody else, or if not, exactly how different I am. I wonder if it's true that bad things happen to good people and if most bad things can be avoided if a person has courage and strength and intelligence & I always wonder when somebody gets sick or hurt, why? Is there a God? Is marriage nothing more than a long, long, long friendship? Will my children hate me some day? Is George Bush truly evil or stupid or is he just an average man making mistake after mistake? Is it better to hate and reject and in so doing avoid being the one first hated and rejected? Is honesty not the best policy?

Will there be another terrorist strike on the U.S?
Are there other planets with life we would recognize on them?
When science declares that "this is simply not possible" could that assertion yet be wrong?
Is DU addictive and why are we here instead of snuggling in bed with our teddy bears or loved ones?
Will my arthritis progress to the point that I can't walk?
Does my mother think I've done well with my children? Does Dad ever worry about getting ill and dying?

Who does not wonder? I wonder if there is any such person.

7. I Wonder...
I saw this on your journal as you are on my "buddies list" and it shows the journals off to the side and I thought that sounded like something new.

You ask a lot of damned questions you know!

Who does not wonder?

Some wonder and may not care. Some wonder and care too much. Some worry. Some person out there may not wonder, but I wonder about them.

The most important person to wonder about in the end, is do you wonder if you've done well, or do you believe you've done the best you can, or do you know with certainty that you have?

I wonder too.

9. Can you read my mind?
"Can you read my mind?
Do you know what it is you do to me?
Don't know who you are,
Just a friend from another star

...

Can you read my mind?
Can you picture the things I'm thinking of?
Wondering why you are
All the wonderful things you are

You can fly, you belong to the sky
You and I could belong to each other

If you need a friend,
I'm the one to fly to
If you need to be loved, (to be loved)
Here I am, read my mind!"

Eep, that seems a little bit froward. Your post just reminded me of the 2nd stanza.

5. I wonder what kind of planet we'd have if there was no sex.
Like, we just grew on trees and dropped to the ground when ready, and off we'd go. To do what, I have no idea.

Or a planet of only men (disaster)?

Only women? That one intrigues me.

6. I can't grasp the "what's beyond the edge of the universe concept"
The whole "it goes on forever" thing really messes with my head. x(
