If your life story could have one, which would you choose?
If it started with "Once upon a time" then your life story would live on forever in the time, throughout the years the story would be passed on and on. Your story may end badly or it could end well, but either way it would live on forever.
If it ended with a "Happily ever after" your story may end and never be shared again. It could be, but there was no guarantee. But you'd be guaranteed that "happy ending."
If you could choose one, to live on forever in a story or to be guaranteed a happy ending...which would you choose?
I think more people would choose Happily Ever After, but I'm choosing the "Once Upon a Time". I think that it would be awesome to do something to live on forever. It doesn't mean it's bad, it could be good ... you just have to take that chance. So I would choose to have a "once upon a time" life...
What about you?

I think I would live forever too if I could. I could do so much to positively impact the world if I knew I was guaranteed to never have to die.

My life is generally pretty dull as you know, so it's probably not worth more than a happily ever after, but I like the sound of Once Upon a Time much better. How awesome would it be to do something great and be remembered forever? Just for being awesome. I've had enough drama in my life to spice my story up anyway and make it sound more exciting. I think my story would be one for doing good. I'm too lifeless to do anything 'bad'. Ha ha. Maybe when I'm a famous writer I'll change a childs life or something.

Ha ha. Yeah. Dude we'll go down in history for our love of the NKOTB! OMGZ!
Yeah. I think a happily ever after would be nice, but a once upon a time would be killer. I'd love people to still be talking about me 20 years...40 years... 100 years from now! Word up!

I would have to say Once upon a time... Firstly because I want to go on forever and ever. No matter what happens when I die i just don't want to lose the awareness of who I am ever. Also I think that bad things happen in life for a reason, whether to learn from or to put you into a position for something good to happen. If bad things happen it is a lesson to be learned and helps you grow to become a better person. For me I would take the ablility to go on with the good and the bad rather than a garanteed good.

Well that's good. I'm glad to see more people saying Once upon a time and not the other one as I'd assumed. I think once upon a tim eis way better.
That's an excellent answer for this question too. It's always good to have someone...even just a few people know who you are even years and years later.
