If ever you encounter an accident, would you rather be alive but disabled or would you rather died? Why?

better to die, because If I really encounter an accident and something happens to me- lose my sight, become deaf, blind, or invalid, i will just prefer to die, because i would not live a life like that- i really love all m senses and things i do with them and I just can't imagine my life without some of them! I really don't want such thing to happen to me or to somebody else, because it is really hard to take or maybe impossible

Yeah, it could be difficult to live losing one of our five senses. It's very challenging and it could be hard to live that way, especially when we can't able to work the same way again. I don't want it to happens to me and better to die than to live but if God would choose me to live, then I will live for his sake. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

Its one way that God is giving you a chance for your life to live! Maybe there's a reason why you survived, make out of it! and live life to the fullest! God loves you! always remember that!

Yeah, you're right! if there must be a real good reasons why God chooses one to live and that reason is best for that person. As everything that happens in our life has a reason whether we like it or not the best thing we can do is accept and choose to live our life.Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

Some time ago I watched a movie about a man who was injured in a car accident. After the accident he was able to think and talk, but he couldn't move his body at all. That film made me wonder how I would react if I ended up in situation like that, and I think that my reaction would depend on my disability. If I had to spend the rest of my life in a wheelcar, I would still be able to do many of the things that I like, and I think that I would be able to cope with that situation. If my disability was very severe, and I wasn't able to move my body at all, I know that I would find it hard to live with the disability, especially if I knew that the situation was never going to improve. I believe that everything happen for a reason, but I would find it really hard to become that dependant on other people.

Life is something unique - on which you do not have any control or anyone in this world can control. This is the specialty of the creator as he only knows weather to keep you here or just remove with a fraction of seconds. As far as your discussion is concerned an accident - if it is serious then it depends and if a minor one can be rectified. The wonder is many persons came across serious accidents but still survived. There are cases where a boy of two years dropped himself from a 9th story building and still survived. This is where the creator has to be thanked and appreciated. Life is not in or hands it is in HIS HANDS.

Yeah, life is a very unique gift from God to us, as from famous movie forest gump quotes "life is like a box of chocolate we'll never know what we gonna get." It's ours but we can control it. It's full of joy and pain, excitement and uncertainty and if we just keep on riding with it we'll get the prize in the end, it's doesn't matter if you're ahead or behind what matter is you finish the line. ANyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

I would rather be disabled. I have two daughters and a husband so its more important to me. I think that i would feel a burdon to them but i think that if it was the other way around and my husband was the disabled one, id rather he was in a wheelchair than in a coffin!

Yeah, if you have your own family and you love them a lot, it could be hard to leave them as in every circumstances we often chose to live even if it means being a little burden to them as long as we able to see them and be with them. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!
