Pondering 23 of Life's Big Questions

Some (not all) of the big questions that I have been thinking about lately - from God and ghosts, to social awkwardness and honey drips.

A bucket of honey in a pantry that is dripping onto the shelf
Dripping honey bucket = sticky mess

  • Was the living Jesus really the son of God? And is he up there wondering whether it was worth dying to save us? Surely he's up there just constantly rolling his eyes.

  • How do I stop my bucket of honey from dripping on my pantry shelf? The simple answer is to not buy the buckets and instead spend more on the squeezy thing

  • Who stole the cookie from the cookie jar? In the words of Nelly, "It wasn't me"

  • Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side isn't really an answer. It's the equivalent of, "because I said so." Where was she going?

  • Why do I keep doing the things that I don't want to, while not doing the things that I do want to do? Ugh (Paul's books are my favourite)

  • Why am I so socially awkward? Double ugh (Is it all in my head, or am I genuinely as socially awkward as I feel?)

  • What happens when we die? No, really

  • Are there ghosts/spirits? Can our deceased loved ones really watch over us? Are we being watched all of the time? Wouldn't the spirit world be getting kinda crowded? Do they fight over who they get to watch that day?

  • Why do red M&Ms taste the best? and why do they even bother making brown ones?

  • How do I sell more books? Seriously

  • What damage is my parenting doing to my children? Sorry, kids

  • How many ants are there in the world? A lot

  • Who murdered the dude in Larrimah? I love Australia (If you haven't seen Last Stop Larrimah, then I highly recommend it)

  • Is there anyone who genuinely never picks their nose? Really? And does it actually increase the risk of dementia?

  • How much longer do we have until WWIII? This is one of the huge and genuinely terrifying questions knocking around my head these days. What does our future hold?... hang on...

  • What does our future hold? Better. Atomic bombs? What will my kids experience?

  • Why do we keep killing our planet? (see above question) How is money ever more important?

  • Is Trump going to get reelected?

Errr

  • Is midday 12 am or pm? I always forget

  • Do our dreams mean anything? Coz some of mine are a little weird

  • Should I bother calling someone to finally stop the split system from dripping on the carpet whenever we use the cooling? Or are the three buckets against the wall just fine for the 10 days a year we actually use it? And why is this my second question about drips?

  • Public, private, or home school?

  • Novated lease or buy outright?

Which of life's big questions have you been pondering lately? I'd love to know!
