If you were in another persons body for a day you would do anything you wanted.
So why is it that we wouldn't do those things when we are in our own bodies? I don't mean killing people or anything to do with crimes.
I mean like if you like someone, why not go for it?
Why are we so scared of taking risks?
We only live once so I think we should start doing things we want to do.
Does anyone agree/disagree?

I agree. There are so many things I would do If I was prettier. People say im beautiful ... but I have always just been so down on myself. I once read a book called "feel the fear and do it anyway" which pretty much sums up what we should do... Whats the difference between successful people and average people? Average people play it safe and successful people take risks and feel the fear .. and do it anyway!

What makes you think we only live once.....life never ends..we are constantly evolving and changing bodies.....so whatever body you occupy you are responsible for your actions....even the body you are in now is only on loan and will be reclaimed and eliminated when you die....try to qualify for a superior body in your next life or you might get the body of a dog or a worm in a dog...
sorry to over emphasis...I'm not a fanatic really.

Yes, I agree somewhat. It's not unlike when actors assume roles; they can become that persona. It's also one of the reasons bad guys wear masks (the main reason being to protect their true criminal identities). Also, haven't you noticed how crime surges on Halloween, when folks are decked out in costume?
As for why we're afraid to take risks: I think that's simply human nature.

If I was in someone else's body that would be so fun, I would go and talk to people and ask them things that I wanted to ask them when I was myself but felt shy to ask and silly things like that...

Because we are afraid of rejection. If you were in another persons body then it would seem as though the other person was being rejected, not you.

I guess it's because we KNOW we're stuck in that body for our whole lifes. We know that if we take one risk we can destroy our reputation, or self esteem. I guess we're scared of being too different

Is this a hypothetical question or what is it you are mumbling about here. If I was in somebody else's body, who would be in mine?
