I know Jessica had a creative title for my random questions...but I'm not very good at remembering to do this every Thursday...so they may have to come when I remember to do them.
The questions for this week:
Would you rather be able to see five years into the future - OR - go back in time five years and attempt to correct your past mistakes?
Would you rather be able to walk on water forever - OR - fly for three hours on three different occasions in your life?
My answers...
I think I'd go back in time and fix things...or at least try. Hindsight is 20/20 so I'd hopefully be able to do things better right?
I think I'd like to walk on water forever...you could do a lot of fun things with that...boy, flying would be fun too though...but I think in the end I'd rather have a talent that was forever rather than just three times in my life.
i'm excited to read your answers
p.s. wish I had some fancy give-away for your clever answers! I don't have anything great to give away...I'll think about it.

this may be really negative, but i'd go back, just because i would never really want to know what was coming (especially not 5 years down the road.) i'd like to try to be as blissfully, ignorantly happy as the moment allows. it seems life throws things at us that i would never be able to handle the thought of ahead of time.
and i think i'd choose the walking on water, too. simply because it would be lasting. i used to dream of flying all the time as a kid though, but for some reason i couldn't care less anymore. :) (is being an adult killing me?) :)
I agree with Shar on going back in time. I wouldn't want to know the future, and a chance to correct past mistakes sounds like a good thing!
As for the other question, its a toss up. I think I would pick the walking on water because that would last.
I'm joining the bandwagon to go back in time . . .I like to think I could infuse some wisdom and perception into myself of then!
As for walking on water or flying? I'm choosing flying. For some reason I kept getting this image in my head of me running across water trying to outrun a shark. So in case for some reason I ever find myself encountering a shark, I rather fly away than try to run (here's hoping one of my 3 times would kick in there!). : )
Going back in time to fix some past mistakes and do somethings differently would be nice. I for sure dont want to know what the future holds...I think it would do wierd stuff to my head and the next 5 years would feel dreadfully long! The other question...at first I thought you meant flying an airplane and I thought...I have already done that 3 times for 3 hours...whats the big deal : ) Now I know what it means and that is what I would pick! I am not a fan of ocean water or really any water other than pools so flying would be very very cool!
I would say going back in time too. As much as I like the knowing the end result first, knowing the future could be very boring. I proably would fly, since I have such a fear of heights, this might be interesting.
I definitely would rather go back and correct my mistakes, because I think getting a few things straight would defintely change my next 5 years. Plus I think if I knew what was going to happen in the next five years, I might not like what I see, and then thats a problem.
I don't feel like the second question is fair, because one is permanent and one is just three times. I really don't see much advantage to walking on water, so I guess I would choose flying. Besides Peter kinda took away the novelty of water walking, I mean he did it 2000 years ago, how cool is it now?
I think I'd look forward 5 years...going back in time, I'm sure I'd still make mistakes and only regret them also.
And I would definately fly on three occassions...I've always dreamed of flying, I'm really hoping that I'll get to fly when I get to heaven!
My three occassions would be flying in the Himalayas last spring while in India, I've dreamed of flying peacefully through the Appalachian mountains...and I'll leave the third to my future.

I'd choose the past. (literature geek) If the future was bad, I'd probably try to change it, which would cause the very thing I'm trying to prevent! (/lit geek) I don't know if I'd actually try to change anything, but viewing a mistake might give me insight I didn't learn the first time around.
I'd definitely choose flying. I've always wanted to fly.
i would look into the future. i've made mistakes in the past, but they're not big enough that make it worth reliving the past again. I'd look into the future for games, casinos and all that make a fortune! :) that sounds pretty shallow too, but yes, i'd choose looking forward.
definitely fly.
