If it was all gone?
 
What would you do if everything was raped and taken from you? Family, friends, life savings, job, house, car, you had nothing left to your name at all. How would you start over, or would you bother?

I'm thinking about a lot tonight, so shoot me....

Family and friends are impossible to replace. Material possessions.... who gives a fuck. There all just bullshit you don't need anyway. There'd be the initial shock/depression then back on the horse more pissed off and determined than ever.

Reminds me of that Christmas movie where he wishes he wasn't born and he wakes up and he remembers his family but his family does not remember him and noone knows him. I cant remember what the movie was called, really popular movie. Anyways, I would almost have to kill myself. Just the fact that you know your family is out there or even right in front of your house and they have no idea who you are, creepy.

Miss Olivia 11-21-2006 05:27 PM

I actually had something very similar to that happen to me. I started over and made it better than before. The family I lost wasn't worth it in the first place, and the friends and material possessions are easily replaced.
You know the saying, if it doesn't kill you it makes you stronger. And if it leaves some scarring, well, that's life.

well i would ..cry..lick my wounds and start again ..
probably go thru a bout of depression 1st ..
but with my upbringing and from what i had been taught through out it all..
i would most definately land on my 2 feet.

Elvis_Christ 11-21-2006 07:24 PM

I'd probably walk the earth. I'd shoot for being like Goldenboy, but without the bike (or toilet fetish)

Haha, not really. Something kind of bad just showed it's ugly head from a past mistake, and now I'm reconsidering everything in my life.

I'd probably just move.

urgeok 11-22-2006 01:03 AM

i wouldnt start over .. i'd dedicate the rest of my life to a humanitarian cause ..
like a work/heath program in africa or something like that.

no bullshit - its something i thought of before. Without family or material possessions.... there would be no reason not to.

Raped?...I assume you just meant what if these things were taken away in some kind of fucked up way, hm?
Family, friends...If were talking about death...etc, and not something I'd done personally that just drove them away, I'd just try to get past it...nothing would ever be "normal" again though, probably right mess up future relationships of all kinds, but I can't say I'd off myself...then again, guess you'd never really know until it happened...If it WAS due to something I'd done, I'd look at redemption, and recognition of the problem...if not all bridges could be mended, at least do what I could to ensure it didn't happen again.
Life Savings? My bank account holds money on a regular basis, I withdraw it on a regular basis...that's it.
House? I rent.
Car? Don't have one...but if my bike went missing, I'd make it a point to save up for another.
Possessions? In combination with loss of family and friends, I'd sure be bored...no net connection, no tv, no music...it'd be harder to try and drown the other stuff out without this.

Guess what I THINK I'd do is try to not let grief take me over...hit up some local charities to hook me up with some emergency temp. accomodation (there's a few things like that here) and some grocery type stuff, go to a govt. operated job agency, and take on any shitkicker job (see, 'cos I'll assume I lost all my references...etc...too) with as many hours as possible to keep myself busy.
I'd definately have time to excersize more...I'd probably go nuts there, trying to do every little thing I could to move foward.
