Discussion If you could escape to another place, would you?

[Thx4DFish]

No I don't mean exactly CTB, but if you had the opportunity to leave this world and go to a new one where you had the final say for things and everything went the way you wanted, would you?
If so, what would you change? Where would you go? What would you be?
Or would it be better if you ceased entirely, and ended your suffering?
(Both are equally valid.)

Well if it's guaranteed that I can have everything be the way I want it to be in the new world I guess I would go for it. I can't say the other inhabitants in this new world would enjoy living in it though. Maybe that's already happened for our current world where we happen to be living in the power fantasy of a single person who's getting everything they want.

No, I just wish for permanent non-existence, if it was up to me I'd choose to erase my existence so it's like I never existed at all, I only wish for this existence to disappear and be forgotten about, I'd always see it as better to not exist. Under no circumstances would I ever want anything to do with existence, to me existence is so evil as it's the source of all suffering, only the absence of everything is perfection.

 

[wildflowers1996]

yes, I want to live. Just not as me.
I'd be beautiful and actually good at things I want to be good at. My family would be happy. The person I love would love me back.
I would want no one to suffer in my world. It would be vegan. And no animal would hunt another.

 

[Final_Choice]

Yes, not sure what type of world I'd go to but I'd try my best to make a world fair for all its inhabitants and try to minimize pain and maximize enjoyment and happiness. I sound like a child saying this, but I would like something like this.

 

[cantthinkofusername]

in an ideal world nothing would exist and nothing would happen for forever and everything would be so much easier

 

[yeh it's all gucci]

I wouldn't need to leave the world, just give me my own topical island where I don't have to see anyone ever again.
Then again I would still be stuck as me so I'd probly hate it too.

 

[saunabliss]

Ideally, I want to be reborn in a family that's loving and stable. I think that would make a world's difference in my mental health. Shitty and immature people should never have children, period.

 

[atdusk]

It doesn't matter where I go. My pain comes from the disencounter with others, and that will be the same anywhere.

Said that, I've always felt that reality is like a curtain and I can make a rip on it to go to another place or to see the true reality.

It's like my problem is not with the world as It is but with everything others construct. The competition, the crowds... It's similar to what happens to me with driving, I love driving, but traffic makes me hate It.

Maybe what I am talking about is freedom. Not being conditioned by others... I don't know.

 

[slightoverlooked]

yes a hundred percent yes!!!

 

[reclaimedbynature]

Yes, without a doubt. Always wondered if there was a way how.
