What is the most important thing in this life?

[Rockerforlife]

in one word?

[scratchinghead]

the cones seem that good to me but then again I am on a super WW program and never eat ice cream anymore. I do go crazy for Ben and Jerry's Cherry Garcia (low-fat is better version, IMHO) but nothing tastes as good as being skinny feels. seriously. I think I might have escaped from Donkey Island. Nose is no longer growing about food. What am I saying? Sheez, this is not what the thread is about. Better head of to work and bother them instead.

[merryBe]

well normally I'd say love/God/People....but I just spent the last couple days being bloated to beat the band from adding the Sam-E back to my regime......

so I'm tempted to say.......F.arts !!

[Mary4now]

really are the cones that good?  I will have to try one.
Did anyone see the TV program on the "string theory"  we are but a teensy eensy weensy particle amidst endless particles and strings vibrating endlessly until enlightenment I guess. within membrances of universes and dimensions.  EEK

[Marcia2202]

You could leave  'internet' out, than you'd be sure that it's only one word...

What Do You Want From Life
Spooner/Evans


What do you want from life
To kidnap an heiress
or threaten her with a knife
What do you want from life
To get cable TV
and watch it every night

There you sit
a lump in your chair
Where do you sleep
and what do you wear
when you're sleeping

What do you want from life
An Indian guru
to show you the inner light
What do you want from life
a meaningless love affair
with a girl that you met tonight

How can you tell when you're doin' alright
Does your bank account swell
While you're dreaming at night
How do know when you're really in love
Do violins play when you're touching the one
That you're loving

What do you want from life
Someone to love
and somebody that you can trust
What do you want from life
To try and be happy
while you do the nasty things you must

Well, you can't have that, but if you're an American citizen you are entitled to:
a heated kidney shaped pool,
a microwave oven--don't watch the food cook,
a Dyna-Gym--I'll personally demonstrate it in the privacy of your own home,
a king-size Titanic unsinkable Molly Brown waterbed with polybendum,
a foolproof plan and an airtight alibi,
real simulated Indian jewelry,
a Gucci shoetree,
a year's supply of antibiotics,
a personally autographed picture of Randy Mantooth
and Bob Dylan's new unlisted phone number,
a beautifully restored 3rd Reich swizzle stick,
Rosemary's baby,
a dream date in kneepads with Paul Williams,
a new Matador, a new mastodon,
a Maverick, a Mustang, a Montego,
a Merc Montclair, a Mark IV, a meteor,
a Mercedes, an MG, or a Malibu,
a Mort Moriarty, a Maserati, a Mac truck,
a Mazda, a new Monza, or a moped,
a Winnebago--Hell, a herd of Winnebago's we're giving 'em away,
or how about a McCulloch chainsaw,
a Las Vegas wedding,
a Mexican divorce,
a solid gold Kama Sutra coffee pot,
or a baby's arm holding an apple?

OUCH!

kindness

[GoofyDad]

Is internetporn one word or two?

[jazzy578]

Since my strength and hope comes from God, my answer would be my relationship with God.  

[eureka254]

So the one word should be "God."

can-do-man/Trish77:
I'm making an involuntary mental note somewhere that it could be an interesting advent to introduce can-do to a nymphomaniac intent only on asphyxial options.

Hope

[Rockerforlife]

LOVE


Whoever does not love, does not know God, because God is love.

[nygirl7]

I found out the answer - water.

Of course I didn't think it up but a NatGeo show pointed out the fact that without water all life on earth would end so I guess it would render all the other answers a moot point.

I like love and life better but in the end...I guess I have changed my personal answer to that.

[gauf]

LIBERTY

[Mary4now]

Compassion   (according to Buddhist this is the main requirement for enlightenment, and thats what I want)

[can-do-man]

I like the way you think girl!

[Trish77]

SEX

(Hey, it belongs in this list SOMEwhere..it's on the first row of Maslow's Hierarchy for Pete's sake .. and Pete is very grateful too.)

[can-do-man]

oxygen

[Boobert]

Sobriety

People

[Trish77]

I tend to agree. :)  It's been interesting just the same to read the various viewpoints. It's been an interesting thread and interesting food for thought.

[Andiamo1]

Perhaps there is no single most important thing in life.  Rather a number of things that without any one of them, life would be diminished.
