If life had a restart button, would you press it?

This life ends and a new one begins, would you take the risk?

  • This is a vague question.

    Would I restart the same life or start as someone else?

    If I restart this life would I remember the last time I went through?

    If I didn't I would just do the same things again.

    Maybe we always relive the same life but don't remember.

    Even if that were true, it wouldn't make a difference because we wouldn't remember.

    Considering that we can be nothing more than thoughts and memories we technically do live within a loop without realizing that.

    • Everything would be new with no memories of your last life.

        Wait... so that means it wouldnt be you since you have no memories at all?right?i mean NO memories at all means that your former self is pretty much ''dead'' right?

        Ugh. Well, if there's no memories of my last life, I won't know what mistakes not to make. Which means I'll have to do the same stupid shit all over again. No thank you, I'll keep this life, please.

        Yes.... I hit a dead end. Would we lose all memory though or would we retain some knowledge of what we learned.

    I'm assuming you mean a new life in the sense that you are reborn a completely new person (i.e: you do not turn back time). But out of one hundred people, nearly a quarter wouldn't have shelter from the wind and rain.

    25% is a pretty high percentage given my current living standards.

    At this point there are a lot of things I wish I did differently but overtime I feel like you learn to accept those mistakes as part of who you are. It ceases being a mistake and it jbecomes a lesson that you needed to learn,

      I guess unless the mistake was someone dying that could have been prevented...

    Nope. I wouldn't be the person I am today, and I like the person I am today.

        I think a lot of people have such concrete requirements from life. Wanting a lot is a good thing, but they don't understand that life is what you make it rather than the aggregate of objectively good and bad experiences. Deciding to like who you are is over half the battle.

    I'm quite attached to this one, despite the burdens. So no.

    Sometimes I wish I could get amnesia so that I could forget all of the things that have influenced me and reset to my default personality.

    Yep. Without a doubt. It'd give me the chance to undo all the wrong I've done and make my life better. Besides, in the new life, I might actually have more chance to determine things prior to my birth (Family, Genetics, etc).

    If I'm lucky to live to a really old age, only then would I press the button.

    With my luck my new life would be even shittier than my current one.

    The button would break, in fact it is probably already broken.

    So not much point really in even trying.

    Even if it did work my life would just end up broken.

    It already has so for the first time something would work in my life and that would mean I have to relive this broken life.

    Now I am thinking hell no what would I want to do that for.

    I bet that button is broken though.

    Not for anything. I'm going to squeeze every single second out of this one. Perhaps another one would be better, perhaps not, but why take the chance if this one is going great?

    No, no, just no. I'm happy with where I am. It's not perfect but I want to see where it's going! I wouldn't miss it!

    If I had the knowledge of what I have now then I'd be tempted to reset my life.

    If I don't have my memories then there's no point for me.

    Mmm-hmm. Not that this one is bad, but I'm curious by nature - so yes.

      Ha! I'm curious too, but you would only satisfy your curiosity if you remembered you did reset it, and OP said there would be no memory of it. My greater curiosity is to know how this one will turn out!

      • Petrichor.

        I know, but it's my curiosity that would make me push the button. Almost like I'd have no control of my actions and just push it, you know?
