Questions 21 - 30

questions 21 - 30.png

  1. Am I really working on raising consciousness or am I just a slave teaching the best ways to stay enslaved to this world online? I am not sure.
  2. Do we already have eternal life right this moment without the need to do anything or have done anything to earn it? That feels like the truth to me.
  3. How do we know if we are truly helping and being of service today? Are upvotes and comments the best way to tell? How about views?
  4. Is the purpose of life to learn how to love? Those with Near Death Experiences or NDEs seem to consistently agree on this point. It feels true to me.
  5. What do I need to do today to love unconditionally in each situation? Keep writing this post or do something else?
  6. Why do we accomplish so much during the day and then go to bed at night feeling like we did not do enough? Still trying to work this one out.
  7. When is it time to stop hustling, end fantasy, and enjoy the future which is today that we worked so hard for yesterday? Am I doing that now or is this just more hustling? At what point is the bank account big enough to just take a day off and not think about it?
  8. Would anyone still follow me if they saw me picking my nose and eating the booger which I could not even spell without spellcheck? After our almost two year old daughter had finished picking a booger and was about to eat it, my wife started to explain about how dirty it was and why she should not eat it. I did not say anything because it seems I am just too lazy to go to the bathroom and try to throw it down the sick and wash my hands. I mean it was in my nose how dirty can it be?
  9. Is it courageous or disgusting to share intimate body details like above? Maybe a bit of both?
  10. Why does the idea of posting naked pictures of myself feel so vulnerable when my body is my most beautiful creation which I have been working on for nearly 34 years? If my friends did it, I probably would too. The world would probably be a happier place if we all felt comfortable being naked. That would be a lot of motivation to make a diet one enjoyed and stick to it. Maybe I should try a nudist colony.

Thank you for reading the next ten questions I have asked in my new series where I share ten questions I think about each day because I hope this helps with feeling connected and raising our collective consciousness to see the big beautiful world we live in! If you would like me to do more of these, would you please upvote this post because I decide what to keep doing based on what you upvote the most?

Love,

at the end of the day, perspective is all that matters

  1. i would suggest we are always a bit of both, internet is an addition if we let it like anything, we just transposing our addictions from other things to take part, you certainly raise questions in people, i believe that to be a healthy thing.
  2. what got you to today was the past, you seem to have an issue with reflection i would say, we do not have eternal life, planet earth will be here when we are not however.
  3. up votes, comments and views tell us nothing about truly helping and being of service, being open, transparent and vulnerable can give you a pretty good indication that you are at least willing to help by allowing others to do the same.
  4. not just learn but to maintain it, to curate it in others and to always be aiming to love harder
  5. i doubt you are loving unconditionally through writing, pausing and spending time with daughter and taking the wife out for a surprise lunch just to relax would help that
  6. i believe this is just because we are constantly wanting to run at max capacity of our abilities, we can see it, shape it, blog about, take part, we will never have enough hours in a day, week or lifetime, get over it already, stop mentally hurting yourself. you can’t change it
  7. if the bills are paid, you have some funds away for your daughter, you see steady growth, minimal debt then you are already winning, take one day off a week regardless, you’ll come back with 10 more better posts
  8. i was bought up that picking your nose was gross, i never questioned it because it seems a fair request. i would suggest you pass that on to your daughter, let her decide when she’s older if it is or not herself!
  9. not courageous at all, jumping out of a helicopter and rescuing someone behind enemy lines is courageous.
  10. it seems that your addictive personality still requires input. if you wanna go naked, go for it! :)

These are great questions @jerrybanfield. Great post as well.
This is the reality of this platform, we all need to absorb and challenge ourselves just like you did.
Keep on steemit !!

I really like the questions! How did you come up with them, where they from your followers, or something you thought up yourself?

👍👌

Naked chicks are hot, naked dudes are funny. I know pisses me off too.

😂😂😁

An interesting questions that stimulates the brain and mind, thanks

Nice work, is good to ask questions sometimes, it helps in redirecting one opinion over a given issue. Weldon

"Why does the idea of posting naked pictures of myself feel so vulnerable when my body is my most beautiful creation which I have been working on for nearly 34 years? If my friends did it, I probably would too. The world would probably be a happier place if we all felt comfortable being naked. That would be a lot of motivation to make a diet one enjoyed and stick to it. Maybe I should try a nudist colony."

I think about this often. In regards to digital privacy sometimes I think we'd all be better of without it. If everyone's nude photos were made public no one would care. There'd be millions of people you could see nude, literally any of your friends you could see em naked if you wanted. They could also see you naked. But in the end everyone will get tired of seeing people they know naked, it won't be such a big deal.

The only reason leaked naked photos have such a big impact and people get blackmailed over them is because of the power we give to them. There's nothing inherently wrong with being naked, nothing wrong with sex, nothing wrong with shitting. It's all natural. You wouldn't be here unless every single one of your forefathers got naked and had sex. How did it become so taboo is our society? Such a shame, we're ruining kid's futures by not talking about sex, by pretending it doesn't happen and forcing them to go online to learn about it.

Seriously, you wouldn't give a kid the keys to a car and expect them to learn without making any mistakes. Why then do we expect kids to learn how sex works without being taught? Mistakes in this area can be very costly

that's for hedonism 2!

Really nice type of Q&A sir,thanks for all these answers.😊

"Is the purpose of life to learn how to love." @jerrybanfield do you think there is an ultimate purpose in life? Or just one that we make up?

I think that we don't have a purpose given to us, but it's okay if we make one up.

"Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them." - Dalai Lama
"The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away." -Pablo Picasso

That is a lot of good questions. You are thinking a lot. We need to question ourselves many times.

Great questions, albeit a bit descriptive at times :)

It's all about vision and balance. and I think what you're doing is great.

Thanks for sharing @jerrybanfield

(5). "What do I need to do today to love unconditionally in each situation", its by far the hardest one to apply in my own life, mostly due to a history and nature/nurture. Like a leap of faith, its requires one to set aside a predisposition of being skeptical and believe in the greater good. One hopes karma is watching, but is that not a selfish goal? I think so.

Upvoted and resteemed your post

Nah, you're just thinking too much, or whoever asked you these has been.

Please answer mining bitcoins is profitable or not🤔🤔🤣🤣

wow this is different from your market anysis. Just sounds like you need a vacation!

😂😂😁

Any questions to raise human awareness and consciousness are beneficial for all, thanks for sharing Jerry.

Would anyone still follow me if they saw me picking my nose and eating the booger which I could not even spell without spellcheck?

of course we do. i think you will get much more followers then! lol. The internet is a crazy place and we wonder why 'apple pen' is one of the song so viral? we dont have a clue why. the answer is because the internet sometimes bring the child in you

hahaha the booger story made me laugh :)
answer to number 9, i think it is courageous and also a little hilarious :)

Why does it pour when it rains? And if it didn't would we still have flowers?

You seems to be overthinking here, also, loving to be an extrovert at the same time...you have got that luxury of being followed by people , i guess, from your subject matter more than you .... ...lol

To be, or not to be ... That its the question hahaha

😂😂😁

Great to post..

You are so curious man

Wow!
Questions are endless and answers as well.
I guess my ultimate questions would only be 3:

  1. What is really and truly my purpose in life?
  2. How do I know my purpose?
  3. What will I do after knowing my purpose?

Jerry, I love how raw and brutally honest you are. You bare yourself to the world and we love you for it!

amazing post, thanks for sharing!!
