What would you rather like to be?

Question

Would you like to be a very skilled surgeon who saves a few dozen lives or a highly-talented inspirational artist whose work moves million hearts for years to come?

Answer 1

Definitely an artist. No way I could kill anybody (unless one fell on someone's head of course).

Answer 2

A very skilled surgeon, because I would have more control over the lives I touch, and how deeply. Saving someone's life creates a bond that lasts forever, I think. Art is something that is meant to be appreciated, yet most people don't carry a painting or a building with them in their hearts and minds every day. Whereas if you were bad enough to need surgery, I know I would thank my lucky stars to still be here.

Answer 3

It probably depends on the lives you save. If you save a life of someone who would saves the world then the net utilitarian answer would have to be the skilled surgeon. Again it is all relative, (n)either one answer is necessarily correct.

Answer 4

This is the truth! I would dearly LOVE to be one of my 2 pugs, either one would do. They have prettier outfits, more jewelry around their necks, too much love, and they eat the best of whatever we eat. We sleep to accommodate them because we love 2 other dogs too. We tried raising kids and messed them both up, as they now tell us every time we get too happy. So I wish we had stuck to what we do best and that's pampering dogs! Never heard one threaten to run away or wish they had never been born! Yes, I'd like to be one of my pugs. Twelve sweet years of the best and the most and then off to Doggy Heaven! Sweet!! (Oh NO! Sorry, I didn't read the choices you gave------I just flew right off on that one-----Oops)!!!

Answer 5

Both, actually. The more lives I can touch, regardless of how, the happier I would be

Answer 6

a very skilled surgeon...too many perks.
