Stunning. The simplicity of the question makes it profound. The comments are brilliant – even the negative ones. The fact that 8 minutes of interaction with raw human emotion has sparked a conversation is remarkable.

Even though the answers may appear different, I believe they are all the same. Loved. By ourselves, by others, by god. Loved.

Simply beautiful. It gives me faith that we all want the same thing out of our short time on earth.

No fate is worse than a life without a love.

I don’t particularly see what is so incredible about this video. Other than the music.

I like how in the beggining people try to think of the most unique and special answer when they are told that their options are limitless. Then they seem to struggle with it and seem disapointed with their answer. I believe that the first choice is usually the best choice, no matter how safe or boring it may seem.it’s funny that the first guy considered his answer “shit” when he just wanted to wake up next to his girlfriendd.

My favorite responses were when people realized they wanted to be somewhere or with someone they considered “home”
Like the gay couple where one man shouts “tahiti” and his partner responds “tahiti? well I suppose Id have to go with you” that was so sweet.

I think the reason why most people take so long is because they dont realize they are already where they want to be, so it takes them a long time imagining being anywehre else.

This video also reminds me of a lecture I saw online where they compared the happiness of two people after a life changing event. One Person was a lottery winner and the other was a parapalegic. The speaker asked the audidence which they would prefer, and most people, hands down prefered being the lottery winner and thought they would be happier.
when shown the results, a year later after both events, both groups of people reported being just as happy as they were before.
what does that tell us?
Happiness starts with being greatful with what you already have.

Do so many people NOT get the point of the video? I know it’s hard to get, but still, do you all not see the homeless woman in the background? Why do you think the camera lingers on her>? She has nowhere but the street! That’s where she WILL wakeup tomorrow. Everyone always wishes for more. Do they appreciate what they even have?

As much as I love “inspirational things” and things that get me thinking, I hate this video a lot.

The question is boring and the video is boring and I don’t get the point and I don’t know if there is or not but i’ll never know anyways because this video is so goddamn boring.

Bye.

Nice theme, however ran into multiple problems 5 minutes after installation.

The preview blog post button leads to preview, but when I click on “edit post” or use the back browser, everything deletes.

Not compatible with several plug-ins including the popular: All-In-One SEO pack. Warning sign stays prevalent even after adjustments have been made.
