Please describe your morning activity in detail. What did you do and how was it? What thoughts a...
Today I decided to sleep in. I am disabled and recovering from cancer and complications arising from cancer so I fatigue easily. I felt a little angry that I was in so much pain when I woke up.
I made a couple of bread products (rolls and twists) that are now on their second rise. I thought it was both satisfying and harder than I had expected. The rolls weren't too bad, but the twists took a lot of work. I thought about my family eating themlater and that made me glad that I had done the work.
I woke up feeling refreshed from a full night's rest. I checked my e-mail, checked my package status, and got some orange juice. I was disappointed I did not receive any e-mail response. I went to check for hits on Mturk and was pleasantly surprised to fnd some hits because the weekends are usually dismal.
I did not set my alarm so I could sleep in. When I woke up I decided to drink some tea and get started on some school work on the computer.
Today is Saturday so I slept in till about 6:00a.m. I made coffee and watched the news on the television. Around *:00am I went outside and moved the lawn. I live in Florida so I like to do this before it gets too hot. After this I drained some of the ool water nd came in to take a shower. Mowing the lawn makes me feel relaxed and content.
I woke up to the baby crying, took him out of bed. I was still very tired so I got him dressed and went for a walk to try and wake myself up, and keep him distracted. It was nice and breezy out because it was 7am and the sun hadn't risen high yet. We got ack and played, and made some crafts together.
I got my children up and ready for the day eating breakfast. My husband was home so I threw on some clothes and went to the grocery store for a few things. I got home and unloaded everything while my husband got ready for work. He left and I took a showe before really starting the day.
This morning I got to stay at home. My children were up before I was after having to get them up the last few days for their first couple days of school, which was nice. I got up and my wife had cooked me breakfast which was extremely nice of her, beingas she has to work today and has been off for the last two days. After I ate breakfast I say down at the computer to start working on Mechanical Turk to make some extra spending money.
I am still frustrated by earlier events in the week. I had my coffee. This is supposed to be my day off, but now I'm working murk. Overall I'm not that happy until these problems from earlier in the week are resolved.
I got up and fed my daughter breakfast, and my stepson as he woke up soon after. I greeted my partner and got myself some breakfast. I felt a little irritated and already a bit bored thinking about the day ahead.
This was a very slow day with not much activity. I woke up relatively early because today is the start of the English Premier League (soccer league) in which I am very interested. I ate breakfast while watching the first game, then open my laptop and stared navigating the internet.
I slept in then had a leisurely breakfast. After breakfast I sorted a few pieces of a jigsaw puzzle I have in progress; after that I went for a walk with my little dog that I have rescued from the local shelter. If was a pleasant morning, the sun shinnig and I was enjoying the fact that it was cooler. I walked and talked with my little buddy (my dog), relating to him how blessed I am and how thankful I am to live where I live and have the family I have.
This morning my husband woke me up a little bit before he went to work. I got up and said good bye and took our dog to use the restroom. I came back inside and started doing some mturk hits to get the day going. Throughout all of this I was feeing tired ad like I would really like some brunch and coffee after I finish this hit.
I got up regular time. Played my GSN games (did pretty good) until my husband got up, ate breakfast, than did dishes, drank my morning tea, than came downstarirs to work on MTurks. Normal morning.. all is good.
Well I woke up around 9 this morning. Today is Saturday and I'm off today so I made me and my mom breakfast. Afterwards I fed the dog, walked her and got on the internet. I felt good about it because I can relax for at least another week until school stats. I was hanging out with my mom and today is a weekend so its a cheat day and I got to eat bacon pancakes and syrup for breakfast, it was awesome.
I drank coffee and watched TV breifly before I went to work. It was nice to gather myself before I headed out. Then I went to work for 4 hours and it was a nice easy day. I may have overstepped my boundries with a superior of mine
I left work this morning, and drove 15 miles to meet some friends at the airport. I was helping them rent a car--they needed a credit card, so I let them use mine. They paid me in cash. After we rented the car, I then drove home. I administered some medicne to my dog, and took her for a walk. I felt pleasant this morning, and in no particular rush to do anything. I had been at work all night, which in this case, was at the home of a client who has dementia.
I went to a class on alcohol education. I felt bummed because I would have rather stayed in bed. I drove the 5 minutes from my house and then parked and went inside. We watched movies as the teacher met with everyone individually to do a reveiw. My mind andered to many things and I thought about all the things that I would rather be doing.
I awoke around 7am and fussed around a bit. My friend later knocked on my bedroom door around 10:30am to let me know that she and her three daughters were going to be leaving in a few minutes. I changed into other clothes, escorted them to the parking lo and waved goodbye as they made their way to new york today. I called my other friend and chatted on the phone, made breakfast and began working on the never ending cycle of laundry.
I woke up and then went back to sleep. All I could think about was the fact that I had only had 3 hours of sleep. I was exhausted because of having . I slept on the couch sort of. I sort of drifted in and out and never really went back to sleep. I evntually got up and ate something. I opened the blinds to let the sunshine in. I felt much better after that. There is something so happy about sunshine.
When I woke up I thought about doing chores at my apartment although I had some difficulty since I was in pain from my bicepts since I went to the gym yesterday. I felt the pain was distracting me from getting up and doing chores.
It's Saturday, so I slept in. Sleeping in was especially important because two nights ago I couldn't sleep at all. My husband supported my need for sleep by taking the dogs for their morning walk on his own. Once I got up, at around 9, I played video game for about half an hour and then got to work on life's chores. I paid some bills and did some paperwork. I felt productive, and I'm happy to be rested.
I woke up made my self a egg sandwich, made coffee, poured it into my coffee cup, hoped into my car and drove to work.
I work in eBay sales. This involves creating sales listings, processing inventory, packing items, and delivering them to the post office. I think it's a fun way to make money. It involves little interaction with actual customers too which I like.
It's a saturday, so I sept in until noon. It felt pretty nice and relaxing. I don't remember my dreams too well, so I'm not 100% sure how to answer the "thoughts and feelings" section. After I woke up, I showered, ate breakfast, and started turking.
I went to work out at the gym this morning. I spent about an hour working out and after I was done I went back home and ate breakfast.
I got my hair cut with my mom this morning. We got up early for our 9:00 appointment, because we had to drive a ways. We get our hair cut by a family friend. It was a very fun experience. My hairdresser is hilarious, and likes us very much. Plus it was fu spending time with my mom in the car.
This morning I slept in for a majority of the morning. Friday nights are usually the only night that I get to sleep in the following morning. It was very nice sleeping in and waking up seeming like I have got a weeks worth of rest. It however does makefor a short weekend. I felt very relieved and relaxed after waking up a little later than usual.
This morning, I woke up and took my roommate to work. Then I drove my boyfriend to the airport. He is leaving for Texas and then Minnesota. I will probably miss him, but I'm not too sad right now. On the way back from the airport, I ran into quite a bit o traffic. I started to become frustrated and then all of a sudden a minivan almost rammed into me at a very high speed. I was so scared and nervous that I had almost gotten into an accident. It was very upsetting.
Made coffee and started playing some video games. No feelings really, typical Saturday for me.
got up, made a pot of coffee, had coffee. checked email, started doing hits on mturk. watched tv. washed dishes and made tonights desert. I experienced boredom.
I woke up late around 9AM, I stayed out late last night. I showered and did the usual toilet stuff. I prepared cereal for breakfast while reading emails and social media and news on my phone. Now I am making a few bucks on the internet.
This morning I slept in until around ten oclock. After waking up I proceeded to turn on the computer and check my emails, and browse reddit for around thirty minutes. I then ate breakfast, showered, brushed my teeth, etc. I then logged back onto my computr to do a few surveys on mechanical turk. I felt rather content throughout the morning.
I got up ate a bagel with cream cheese. I was filling very energetic so I wash 3 loads of clothes. I cleaned my room. I mop the kitchen and bathroom.

I woke up around 6 am. I had coffee and a bagel for breakfast, after that I did some work. I then got dressed in workout clothes, drove to the park and did a quick 2 mile walk, then drove home. I was really happy to be outside, it was much cooler and nice than it has been. I was really happy to see a bunch of other people excercising and a lot of cute dogs.
I slept in until about 9 a.m. this morning, it was wonderful, I really did not want to wake up. When I finally emerged I grabbed a cup of coffee and decided to sit outside and read a book while I smoked a cigarette and drank my coffee.
Woke up early as the criterium was to start at 8:00 AM. I thought "why am I doing this". Made coffe and read the news, Felt irritated that people continue this fighting. Walked up to the race with coffee and considered that the event was for gay riders ony, how weird. Watched the race picked out someone who was an obvious under dog and decided to root for them. Talked to a few participants about where they were from etc. Just like any other bike event except there were entries from a few international teas and i liked how that the race all the more interesting.
I woke up and made breakfast for my two children and husband. I ate my breakfast and then played with my kids for an hour or so. I was having fun and enjoying my time with them but then I had to help my husband with some yard work. I was very exhausted sice I did not sleep very well but helped him anyway. After I finished helping him, I made lunch for all of us before putting my youngest son down for a nap. The whole time I felt tired and like I was ready for a nap myself. I then decided to get some onlin surveys done for the remainder of the morning.

I woke up this morning and had some oatmeal for breakfast. I then went on a 16 mile bike ride. The bike ride took about an hour and a half. It was a lot of fun and I feel very accomplished. At the beginning of the ride, I felt tired and I didn't want to kep going. However, towards the middle of the ride I really enjoyed myself. The scenery was beautiful, there were a lot of flowers and trees which made me happy. At the end of the ride I was beginning to tire and my legs were sore, so I couldn't wait to ge home.

He invited me to join him so I got in my car and went to meet him and we had a nice breakfast, then went our separate ways.
I woke up to use the washroom, went back to bed, checked the news online and then went back to sleep. My thoughts were of my life and what I might do today and my feelings were of indifference.

I woke up about three hours before my alarm. I felt kinda bad this morning because I have a bit of a sore throat. I thought about if a package I am expecting would come today, and about petting my dogs. Afterward, I decided to get on the computer and compete some surveys, and felt some determination.
I slept in this morning since I was technically off today. Once I got up, I got dressed, threw some clothes in the laundry, and headed to the credit union to deposit some checks, grabbed a burger and some fries at my favorite burger place and then ran to almart to get a few things. Nothing to exciting. Just something that I needed to get done on my day off.
I woke up at five minutes past 6, hit up the bathroom, started a pot of coffee, and got onto Turk. I worked for a while, drank my coffee, and had breakfast soon after.

I woke up and walked the dog. Then I made coffee and breakfast (bagel with scrapple and cheese). Afterward I had to unclog a drain. It was disgusting, but I got it unclogged. I felt productive this morning.
I slept until 11 and woke up to my roommate watching Hook. I watched while I made coffee and an egg sandwich sleepily, glancing over my shoulder with the occasional sleepy chuckle, and mumbled out the occasional comment that came out more grumpy-soundingthan I meant. I cleaned up my dishes as I went and then sat down in a nice leather chair with a second cup of coffee to finish watching the movie - the chuckles becoming less sleepy with time - and wake up.
My daughter and I went to town to shop. We went to a few stores trying to find some toys my daughter had been wanting, then we went to a grocery store where I bought some needed household items and food. The experience was routine for me, since I didn't sop for anything I wanted, just essential needs. My daughter enjoyed it, since she got some toys she had been wanting.
I actually slept in today because it was my day off. I stayed up much later last night than I wanted to and I forgot to set my alarm (I usually don't like to sleep in too late). I woke up about an hour ago because one of my dogs jumped on me. I felt relaxd but also a little anxious because I had slept so late. Luckily, I had nothing planned today.
Today is Saturday, so I slept in and woke up at around 12:30 naturally. I brushed up, showered, and made a cup noodle as breakfast while browsing the web. I have since then gotten ready to go out and study for the rest of the day for my upcoming exam. I fel refreshed and well rested after a long week at work. The breakfast break made me feel relaxed, although I am now dreading going to study.

I fixed a bacon/eggs/grapefruit breakfast, had a cup of coffee while I read e-mail, the morning news. Then I did my morning physical therapy (for MS), took a shower and got dressed and went grocery shopping.
I watched The Secrets of Drawing from BBC all morning while laying in bed. My thoughts were that I seriously should dedicate more time and effort to my artist pursuits. Watching the documentary made me a bit sad as I felt as if I have wasted a majority o my adult chasing a dream that wasn't my own trying to move up the corporate ladder.
I woke up this morning feeling anxious. I have been going through a lot lately. I just needed some time to regroup my thoughts. I laid in bed for some extra time today. I went over some of my thoughts and concerns. I made some plans for the future. I figued out some of my immediate concerns. I felt that I needed to take care of myself for the day, maybe give myself some pampering, so I stayed home today.
Well I drank last night so today I woke up a little hungover and decided to sleep in. I felt unaccomplished and lazy but the headache has since gone away.
I slept in, made some pancakes and bacon for breakfast, and read a magazine. It was nicely sleeping in and feeling refreshed. Sitting outside in the summer to read is my favorite part about the weekends, and especially the mornings. It was a great star to the day.

I went to a beach on Lake Michigan for the first time. It was nice, but the water was very cold. I was impressed with how nice the beach was, but my daughter was fussy so we didn't stay too long.
I've been browsing the web and pretty much relaxing. Reading the news and annoyed by some world events but I'm mostly upbeat.
I went on a seven mile bike road this morning. I began by putting on the appropriate clothing and my helmet and sunglasses. I also stretched before I set out. It was pretty hot this morning, but I had an enjoyable ride. I broke my speed record by going 385 mph down a big hill. I felt pretty exited about that. After my ride I felt tired, but also very accomplished. I set out to only ride 5 miles but ended up going a little over 7. I thought that this was a great way to start my Saturday.
I got up and did my oil pulling therapy, as I read a book. Then I made the bed, and brushed my teeth, and looked out at the day. It was not raining, and that made me happy. I woke my husband up, and we had a little chat. I checked my email, then woke my sn up and talked about his plans for the day. I had bananas and water for breakfast.
I slept in for three hours this morning. It felt great! I really was feeling run down, and sleeping in gave me the boost of energy that I needed.
First I got up and went to have a cigarette outside. Then I came in the house and jumped on Mturk. Worked for hours and now I am here several hours later. Its a typical day and I don't mind it one it.

I got up and did my morning routine, washed my face, brushed my teeth, etc. I then turned on my computer and nw I'm doing surveys on MTurk. I felt kinda angry that I overslept and missed some work but I got over it pretty quick.
I always sleep in on Saturdays until about 11 am.
I ate breakfast and then completed some surveys. It was ok. There has been a slight chilly breeze all morning and it feels nice.
I hit the snooze button. 15 minutes later, I got out of bed. I thought, "Yeah, I don't want to get out of bed." I brushed my teeth, washed my face, and showered. A nice, hot shower always feels good. I fixed some bacon and eggs and had some breakfast. It as pretty darn filling. So, I guess you could say it was awesome. After that, I just lounged around the house, doing MTurk HITs, and then taking small breaks to workout, read, write, and other activities. Felt like a nice, relaxing day.

It's still early, so I woke up about an hour and a half ago. I went to the bathroom, and down the stairs to the couch where I watched ESPN for a half hour and caught up on last night's games. I them made myself waffles for breakfast and came back to thecouch, where I am now.

I planned last night to sleep in until after 8:30am and I woke up at 9:07am. It felt great and I woke up quickly! I went to the kitchen and made my coffee and fed my 2 cats a mixture of canned and refrigerated food. I decided to have an extra half cup f coffee this morning and added coconut oil and stevia to it, then heavy cream. It tasted like dessert! Then I made my to do list while sipping my coffee and decided to minimize activities today. I also decided to try to do some surveys on Mturk beforeI have to go to the store. I opened my netbook and sipped my coffee as I logged on to Mturk.
I woke up, went upstairs, went to the bathroom, then decided to have breakfast. I ate a blueberry nutrigrain bar. I felt tired and kind of guilty because I decided not to go to church. I went back downstairs and restarted my laptop so it could update. I flt a little annoyed because it took so long. I went upstairs and had more breakfast - instant potato, an egg, and some peas. I drank a couple cups of water, too. I put all of this into an online food tracker. I was happy because I'm within my goals so far I then went back downstairs and started working on MTurk. I'm feeling good that I'm finally getting some work done.
This morning I woke up and took my dog outside to use the bathroom. Since it is the weekend I have nothing important to do today. I got a cup of tea and worked on my crocheting before everyone else woke up. It was nice and quiet and very enjoyable. I as happy to be able to crochet for a while I was the only one awake. I also enjoyed cuddling with my dog. She is usually too excited to lay with me but she had just woken up and was still tired. She sat in my lap while I worked on my doily.

I hope your survey is interesting enough to keep me awake.

I woke up, did things to take care of animals such as turning on lights for fish tanks and put out food for the cat, and watched tv with a cup of coffee and a cigarette. My thoughts and feelings regarding wishing I was with my girlfriend and thinking abou plans for the day.
I woke up earlier than normal because I am upset about a home remodeler that has a horrible work ethic. So i got out of bed and brushed my teeth. I made some Apple struedle bread for my kid's and made coffee. After I made sure the kid's were fed I sat dow at the computer and started worrking on MTURK. After a while I noticed I could not think strait so I put on some obnoxious teckno music to slow my thought's. this works every time. Then I got back to work on mturk.
I slept in as we hosted a housewarming party yesterday that lasted well into the night. I feel somewhat guilty for not getting up to work out, but glad to relax. I have been watching tv and doing some things online.
I woke up earlier then usual for a Sunday morning. i closed the bedroom door so I would not wake up my love and the dog. I went to the kitchen, cut on the tunes and made coffee. i went to the computer cut it on and did the maintainance on it.

It's about noon now and I will stop and Make a good old southern Sunday "dinner" of Mayport shrimp, hushpuppies and cheese grits.

This morning I had a lazy morning with my husband. We woke up at 9:30 and noticed it was grey and rainy. We put cozy clothes on and came downstairs to tend to our animals and make a pot of coffee. We then threw a few pieces of cornbread in the griddle to oast them and then ate them with butter. After we cleaned up the kitchen and poured a second cup of coffee, and proceeded to our living room to relax and read. It was a pleasant and quiet morning.
My morning activity was nothing but laying in the bed till around 12:00 relaxing then I had got up and fixed breakfast with my girlfriend and what not.
I got up, cooked bacon then started painting the kitchen cabinets. After I got a coat of paint on I ate some leftover chicken with Tabasco sauce. My thoughts and feelings were rather subdued throughout.
Slept in as this is the one day during the week that I get to indulge myself. I feel rested, relaxed, and peaceful.
When I woke up, i immediately turned n my desktop computer so that I could work on some hits on Mturk.com Although I was extremely tired, I was determined to start my day off earning some extra money. That determination I had ultimately gave me the energyto do my task.
I woke up, watched television in bed for a few minutes, and then got up. I made breakfast and coffee, and ate while playing online solitaire. I brused my teeth, took a shower, and sat down to do some work on MTurk. I enjoyed playing solitaire and had t force myself to stop as I was on a winning streak. My thoughts revolved around the fact that I need to make a little extra money to cover a large bill that is due this week.
I woke up around 11 AM. I smoked a cigarette and checked my phone. I let my dog out. I made tea. I went to the bathroom and read all the Big Brother updates I could. Now I'm online doing HITS while watching Big Brother live feeds.
L went to the grocery store right after they opened. It was not crowded and I found many bargains. I was relaxed and happy to practically have the store to myself
I woke up and was still in bed. I answered some text messages and checked my emails. I was still feeling groggy and tired. I rolled out of bed to use the restroom to poop. While I was pooping, I was reading the news on my phone. Then I walked downstairs t wash my face. I made some food (rice and pork) to eat and turned on my laptop to do some mturk. It felt like a good start.
woke up at 9:30am got ready, and drove to church with my husband and daughter. the service was nice-great worship,good sermon, most of all,great time enjoying God's presence.i was happy,inspired and encouraged.
I woke up later today around 10 am and came downstairs to eat a light breakfast with my parents. We chatted and hung out afterwards and I helped my mother cook lunch. After that I sat down on the sofa to do a little work on MTurk. It was a pleasant Sunda morning.
I had to rest from the previous day's activity. Read my emails and had my morning coffee which is my usual habit.
I got up and fed the pets. I was annoyed because the dogs were barking at someone walking by on the sidewalk. But, feeding them distracted them and they stopped barking. I then had a cup of coffee just the way I like it with cream and sugar. Then, I made y mother breakfast, gave her her medication and began working on Mechanical Turk. I was happy to find lots of work on mTurk. I refilled my coffee and went back to work on mTurk.
I wake up and eat breakfast. Then spend time with my dad until he leaves for work.
I woke up beside my boyfriend, relaxed and happy and then went online to figure out my school stuff while he slept beside me. I felt happy and just okay with my situation.
It's Sunday, so I went to church as I always do. It was especially uplifting today because there was a guest speaker who was the inspiration behind one of the characters in the movie "God is Not Dead". He talked about how faith and science are compatibl and explained how God used his desire to advance science while maintaining his Christian faith. He and a team of researchers developed a special contact lens that is made from donated placenta that would normally be discarded follwing a birth. But he fund that these young cells could be used to help adults with eye injuries, without compromising the life of an unborn child. I found it so inspiring to hear his story of growing up in China as an atheist during the cultural revolution when the dictator cosed colleges. In an effort to avoid a future full of hopelessness, he learned to play a musical instrument, which was his way to avoid a labor camp. When that dictator died, colleges were opened again- he ended up going to Harvard and MIT where he becae a Christian and God lead him to become a well-known eye surgeon. I was grateful to hear his testimony and see how God worked through him to give the miracle of sight to people who may otherwise not have it, and how he is making a mark in science withot compromising his belief that all life--even an unborn child--is sacred.
I WOKE UP AT 7:30 AM AND CHECKED MY EMAIL FROM MY PHONE. I THEN MADE A CUP OF COFFEE AND SAT DOWN IN THE LIVING ROOM TO VISIT WITH MY MOM AND DAD. I THOUGHT WHAT A NICE DAY IT IS AND HOW I AM REALLY APPRECIATING BEING BACK HOME WITH MY FAMILY. THEN I ST AT MY COMPUTER TO START WORKING ON AMAZON MECHANICAL TURK. AFTER A WHILE I GOT UP AND MADE A BAGEL WITH CREAM CHEESE.
After waking up, I decided to cook a full meal for breakfast. It was delicious and it got me motivated for the rest of the day. The house was not cleaned for a week so I decided to use this free time to vacuum the whole place. I felt satisfied and decidedto relax and watch some episodes of my favorite show.
I woke up and then had to walk to the local gas station because my husband was out of his cigerettes. From there I came home and cleaned up the kitchen, this involved washing dishes from last night and the breakfast dishes this morning. I did a few loadsof laundry. I picked up the family room. I watched a little tv. while doing some hits on MTURK. Then I took a shower.
I went to Sunday school and we had a discussion about a book we are reading as a group. I enjoyed learning about religious psychology and participating in the group. Then I went to church and was interested in the sermon. I felt like welcome and like Ibelonged.
As I usually do on Sundays, I slept in a few hours later than I normally do throughout the week. I enjoyed getting the extra rest and I feel that it has prepared me for the rest of the week.
This is a Sunday, and as I am not religious I stayed at home. I wokr around 8 am and cleaned the house. At 9, I started laundry and put on some music. I decided to cook a nice little brunch for myself and my 7 year old niece when she woke up. I felt very elaxed this morning, as I always do when I am getting everything prepared for the week ahead. I thought of how much I love my niece and how tranquil the day is.
I slept in and made coffee. The cat was a little distressed for some reason I couldn't figure out and was meowing a ton, which is out of character. I watched a couple episodes of the Sopranos on Netflix. The whole thing was fairly relaxing except for the at stuff.
My mom had spent the night, she woke up with my baby. I got to sleep in, I woke up at 8. She already had coffee on. She ahd already fed the baby breakfast and a bottle. I got to sit there and enjoy coffee with her. I watched my baby play with hs toys. My dad showed up and he got his coffee. We all watched the baby play and talked to him. I felt a lot of joy. I love having my parents with me on the weekend. I felt like I got a break since I got sleep a little extra and didn't have to feedmy son breakfast. I felt a lot of happiness. The coffee was so delicious.
I slept in a little longer than usual since I was feeling tired and then went to wake up the baby. We watched a little TV and started the day slowly, feeling less and less groggy as the time past. Later on we ate breakfast since we were hungry and got dessed to go out shopping for a new curtain. It was nice to get out and have the sun shine on us and the cool breeze blow.
I woke up in an upset mood from a fight I had with my girlfriend last lastnight. I then headed to the bathroom, brushed my teeth, put on my workout clothes, and stepped outside in the great weather then proceeded to go on my daily morning jog which put mein a better mood. After making it to the beach I went for a swim which feels amazing after the jog, then I jogged back home, took a shower, and ate breakfast my girlfriend made while I went out for my Jog. After eating the breakfast I thought it was goingto be a good day, and it has been.
I woke up and went down stairs and got a bowl of raison bran. I then watched some Netflix and had "breakfast" in bed. After watching a couple shows I decided I needed to take a shower and look decent before my eye appointment that afternoon.
I woke up, went to the bathroom, put clothes on, then went to my friends house to feed her dogs. I was very tired and groggy. It's also very hot out today.
I slept in until 10:30, then I got up and ate a sandwich. After that I got on the computer and started doing hits on MTurk. Around 11:30 I got dressed and headed out to a family friend's house to help them move.
Went to a diner for a late breakfast with my husband. It was enjoyable. I noted that the diner was like a bar without the alcohol.
I woke up around 8:30 AM to shower, then I went to change and have my breakfast right after. I left around 9:50 and got to the church just on time. We start at 10 AM every Sunday and it's only an 8-minute drive from where I live. We learned today lessons bout being a good neighbor and taking in the good air of this world--not literal air, but the nice-smelling scent of our association with our brotherhood, all while trying to stay away from the foul-smelling acts the world undertakes on a daily basis. It as very refreshing and it started out my morning right once again, just like how it always does every Sunday morning. I love learning lessons every week and just living my life by those lessons as much as I can.
I was very tired and almost overslept, since I have a slight cold. I did want to go to church, because I really miss going when I don't go. I crawled out of bed, made the bed, brushed my teeth, combed my hair, and did the best I could with my makeup. Jst grabbed a quick cup of coffee while going out the door. I was so tired, but then I was so glad when I finally did get to church. My church is about a one-half hour drive. Everyone is very friendly, and I love the contemporary music. The service ws excellent, and it was on fatigue! Just what I needed to hear.
I woke up and made a smoothie then went for my morning walk on the beach. I experienced a sense of relaxation, calmness, serenity, joy, and gratefulness.
After a late night out with friends, I slept in until 11 AM. Felt good to just curl-up with my pillow and not worry about going to work. After I eventually got up, I consumed a banana for a quick burst of energy. Realizing that all my clothes stank, I budled up the worst offending articles of clothing and threw them in the washing machine. A halfhor later I hung up the now damp clothes to catch the summer sun and breeze. Felt warm and confident I will not be disgusting tomorrow at work.
I got up, took all of the soda cans and rinsed them, stomp them and put them in the shed. Started doing laundry and tidying up. Listened to some mixes on soundcloud and when it was finally cloudy out went outside and skated around my neighborhood. It wasthe usual but I've been in a great mood all morning. Feel great and optimistic today :)
I woke up around 8am and went downstairs to eat breakfast. I turned on Netflix and started watching Mad Men, and then I applied to a couple of jobs through searches I had done on LinkedIn yesterday.
My mother and father slept here since they came to visit. We had breakfast and played with my son. Then we cleaned and helped them take things we bought for them to their car. Soon after that they left. It was nice seeing them after a waile we where happy
I went to church, helped with children's church. It was a great experience and I really enjoyed it.
Woke up with my infant son, was pretty tired. Then went downstairs to feed him and get breakfast started for my toddler son and husband. After breakfast we played a few games with our older son, enjoyed the family time.
I awoke freshened up and poored a cup of coffee. I sat outside with my wife and shared a cigarette. We listened to some music. I was feeling relaxed and accomplished for a hard weeks word. The world around me was bright and I was happy.
I woke up and looked outside. I saw a package was delivered. I opened it. It was the light for my bike. I installed it.
My wife and I attended the church that we have been visiting for the past several weeks. It was a pretty good service. I don't particularly enjoy the music but my wife does. Today, unfortunately, we sat in front of a visiting family who was quite annoying The father was one of those individuals who feels that they have to respond to everything that the pastor says, meanwhile the daughter spent the entire service pecking away at her ipad. The service was shorter than normal which was nice as I and my wife ere starving.
I rode my horse after being away for some time. It was mood lifting and fun. I love the smell of horses and love being around them.
I spetn the morning with my daughters. It was great, nice and peaceful. My feelings were pure joy.
This morning, I got up really early, took a shower, brushed my teeth, and got dressed. I ate a turkey breakfast sandwich, hashbrowns, and coffee that a family member picked up from a nearby cafe shop. I went to church with my family. We arrived a bit late I enjoyed the praise and worship music. We had a guest pastor. I enjoyed hearing him preach about the need for pastoral covering. I felt the sermon was interesting and very much needed. I felt he was also funny at times. I enjoyed the rest of service andfelt very happy and rested.
I woke up with my son and I got him changed. We went downstairs and I made him breakfast. We both ate and then I got him fully dressed so he could go out with his dad. I felt tired but a bit relieved that I would have time to myself today.
For my morning activity, I slept in. I was tired from coming home late during the night time and decided to catch up on some much needed sleep. I thought about my plans for the morning time and felt good knowing I had a full day to rest and relax before te week began.
I woke up and took a shower. Went downstairs and fed the cats. Made tea and had zucchini muffins and tea for breakfast. Ate this out on the back patio and watched the birds at the bird feeders while I ate. Then I went up to the sewing room and finished a uilt block to take to the monthly quilt block class at noon today.
I got up walked my dogs. After I walked my dogs I went to church. I really enjoyed church and seeing all my church friends. The sermon was good and really made you think about things in your life. Then after the service I stood around and talked to some o the other parishioners. It made me feel good to see everyone and have a few minutes to visit with them.
I got up this morning and fixed breakfast for me and my husband. I drank coffee and orange juice. I cleaned up the kitchen and took our nephew home. I made ice tea for my husband to take to work tonight. I then cleaned house and now I am working on MTRK hits. I am in a great mood as I have all the work done and now I can relax the rest of the day.
I got up, brushed my teeth, got dressed, then left and met my friend at a Publix shopping center. She pulled up, I left my truck at Publix, hopped into her car. We went to Bojangle's to get some breakfast as we were both hungry. We then drove to her houseto pick up her brother's truck. I folled her in her car, we stopped at the gas station and filled up both trucks. We then drove to Alabama to drop off her brother's truck. I was a little tired while driving but with a Mountain Dew, started waking up a litle.
I woke up and had breakfast. I had gotten back from a vacation late last night, so I just took things slow. It felt good to sleep in my own bed again and be in my house. I spent the rest of the morning just relaxing and browsing the Internet.
I stayed in bed for about an hour, just thinking about things. I got out of bed, grabbed some food, fed my dog and played with him for a little bit, and then went on mturk to complete surveys. My morning was very relaxed and I felt happy.
Had a lazy morning, read the newspapers with my coffee. Caught up with the political news on the television. Spent some time out on the patio relaxing. Felt wonderful, calm, happy.
I went to a flea market to look for interesting things. It was fun even though I didn't find anything to buy. There was lost of vegetables that looked good. There was a couple great dane puppies for sale that were very cute. It was a good way to spend a orning.
This morning, I woke up and was very dehydrated from the drinking I had done the night before. I definitely was regretting not drinking more water or remembering to floss. I went to my mini fridge and drank some lemonade before going back to sleep. It wasquite cold and more liquid than I anticipated. I woke up briefly at noon before deciding I was quite sleepy. I woke up again at 2 pm, feeling significantly more rested.
I woke up...got ready for church. Helped get my children ready for church. I went to church for two hours and then came home and ate lunch.
I wrote up really late today. I didn't wake up until 1pm. I went to bed really late last night. Around 5am. I had an interesting Saturday. When I work up, I was still feeling very tired but I woke up and went online to check my e-mail. I made lunch and thn started web surfing.
I was happy to have brunch with friends because I haven't seen them in a while. I was feeling hungry and so satisfied by the pancakes I ordered. So light and fluffy.
I woke up late. When I got up I spent time ling in bed and reading the news. Then I got up and staarted to talk with my roommate as I ate breakfast. I enjoyed the slow pace but I felt as if I should be doing work.
I usually sleep in the morning, as I work during the night.
I slept in. I really enjoyed this as I never seem to get enough sleep. When I woke up, I made sure my kids had breakfast. After that, I took a shower and got dressed, then had the kids brush their teeth. Next, I started working as I work from home. I likebeing able to work from home as I can set my own days and hours, which revolve around my kids. Next thing I knew, the morning was over and it was time for lunch.
I got out of bed and sat down on the toilet. Then I washed my hands and brushed my teeth. After that I took a shower. This was probably the best part of the day (or at least the better part of it). I put my hair up and put on my work uniform. I droveto work and listened to music from my I-phone to try to psych myself up for the last day of my work week. I parked under a tree and walked past the horse stables to the building where I cook. I quickly walked the kitchen and greeted each of my coworkersand supervising Chef. I went outside to the completely unlit designated smoking area and had a cigarette. Another cook arrived and told me that the woman who works my station at night broke her hand and went to medical services and it was my fault. I wnt to the bathroom and cried and then cleaned up, clocked in and started working. This is pretty much Groundhog Day at this point. I run around and set up my small kitchen. I start getting to go orders almost immediately while I am prepping and cooking fod for the lunch service I will be working next. From 10:30 to 11:00 I am allowed a thirty minute lunch which I try very hard to take every day since it is my only brief escape from a constant stream of order tickets. I don't really care who fills the oders when I leave at this point. I am pretty sure that if it were there weren't laws and all I would be required to stay. I often catch flack about breakfast to go orders during my legally required lunch break but this is just another part of Groundhog ay (I love you Bill Murray). At 11:30 I started lunch service which just means that I make food from tickets for tipped servers instead of underpaid hostesses and I use fancier plates. According to the schedule lunch service ends at 2:00 PM but I would ay we sat until about 2:15 today. It's whenever. My night relief who's hand was in fact not broken but somewhat swollen came in and I cried again. Then I tore down everything I set up for breakfast and lun
I slept very late; got up for a late breakfast, and called some friends.
I woke up later than usual. Decided not to wear professional dress. I don't trust that the job will pan out, and I thought about that a lot. The drive there was very, very, rainy. The roads were dangerous. I didn't think this job not panning out would be orth dying for, but I continued anyway. Ended up at the location that my GPS sent me to 10 minutes early, but it was the wrong address and 20 minutes form where I was supposed to be. What are the effin chances, right? So I was late to new job on boarding. The whole process was overwhelmingly tedious. I almost walked out because I couldn't concentrate on what we were asked to do. We had to fill out ~10 forms on about our whereabouts for the last 7 years, and any mistake on any page meant restarting the pge. I made roughly 1 billion mistakes. Maybe I'm overstating, but it took literally 3 hours to fill out 10 forms. Ended up needing an in-depth credit history for onboarding, so I tried to get my annual online credit report. Experian's website crashed, o I called them. Turns out their customer service sucks; I'm not even sure if they have operators on staff. I then failed a typing test. Twice.
I woke up and had a banana then went back to sleep. I got out of bed and brushed my teeth then shaved. I cleaned up the cat litterbox and got dressed. Then, I went to the kitchen and had a bowl of cereal while reading the news on my laptop. I felt unmotivted and a little anxious because I lack privacy and detest my roommate.
I got up at around 6 a.m., went to Starbuck's for coffee and stopped at CVS, came home, took a nap with my husband. It was really a great Sunday morning!
I haven't been feeling well. I woke up at 7 then went back to sleep. Then I woke up again at 11 stayed awake for lunch; went back to sleep at 12:30 for another few hours. I didn't fell well physically so I felt depressed mentally because it was probably te most beautiful day we've had around here for ages and I couldn't participate.
I woke up too early because my infant daughter was fussy and teething and my 4 year old son came into our bedroom. I was tired and annoyed. Normally either I or my husband sleeps in each weekend day, but neither of us could go back to sleep, so we all gotup. We ate melon and doughnuts for breakfast. Even though I was tired, I felt good having the whole family together and able to relax without the pressure of work and school. The baby wasn't too fussy during breakfast. Everybody got dressed, without much rama from the four year old, which was nice. We all went to church, which is unusual since my husband doesn't often go, but there was a big picnic and meet and greet today. It was a nice morning.
I slept comfortably - no strange dreams, not too hot. I did hit snooze on my phone alram without really being aware of what it was, but int he end I only stayed in bed an hour over my original "plan". I felt fairly rested and ready to have a good morning hen I got up. I had planned what to wear and what to eat and I actually did those things. I felt good.
This morning I slept in until about 11AM. I was particularly tired from the day before and needed a good amount of sleep to refresh myself and feel better. After I woke up I watched some television and read for a while before getting up and going about myday. I felt invigorated from the good night's sleep and optimistic and happy about the upcoming day.

I did household chores most of the morning. I swept and mopped our living and dining room as well as cleaning our toilets. My thoughts were that things were not too dirty and a feeling of relief at that.
Woke up after not getting much sleep and immediately made some coffee. Got a shower and got ready for the day. Woke my son up and got him ready and he and my wife went to sunday school and then church afterwards. Felt great!
I just moved into a new place, so I spent the morning unpacking boxes, setting up furniture, and preparing some bags for good will donations. I am on my third day of unpacking, so it wasn't particularly exciting. Still quite a bit of work to go, but I fee good moving into a bigger apartment.
I went grocery shopping with my daughter. We had decided the night before to make dumplings. So we drove to the asian supermarket to pick-up all the ingredients we needed. I really enjoy the quality father/daughter time I get to spend with her. These oments bring a lot of joy in my life.
I woke up and said "hello" to my cats. I poured myself a bowl of cereal and made myself a cup of coffee. It was a very beautiful day outside. It was nice and cool but not too cold; it felt like fall in the air. I ate my breakfast while watching TV before got into the shower.
I woke up around 9:30 am, got up and brushed my teeth. I went downstairs to check on my mom, who I'm taking care of because she broke her knee and shoulder recently and can't walk. I made her breakfast and helped her go to the bathroom. I went back upstais and browsed websites on the computer for the rest of the morning (Yahoo, Mturk, Huffingtonpost, Youtube). It was an uneventful and dull morning, and I felt a bit lethargic and unmotivated. I experienced the usual frustration that I am stuck at my mom's ouse because she's dependent on me. I don't want to have to be here, and I'm hoping for both of our sakes that she heals up soon.
I awoke early and enjoy coffee with the internet, I like to sort through my email and catch up on the news. Then shower and off to work. Work is boring, I don?t like most of the people I work with and count the time until I can leave, the last hour is aways the longest.
I slept in until about 12 o'clock and laid in bed for a while. Eventually, I went downstairs and talked to my parents, while making a cup of coffee. I then went to the supermarket and started laundry. I had feelings of excitement because the next day Iam leaving for vacation.
I used my computer for my online employment of typing reports. I ate a small breakfast before I started my work and I also did a mini exercise regime.
I got up at 7 AM. I wanted to sleep in, but I had to get up and get ready for work. At least it was the end of the work week. I took a shower and got dressed and poured a glass of orange juice and had a couple of slices of toast. I got in my car and drovethe 5 minute trip to my job. I punched in on the time clock and went to my office. I checked my inbox to see what I needed to do today. I prioritized the different tasks I would be needing to do. I started auditing nursing notes from the previous day. I wrked on the nurses notes for a couple of hours. Then I begin the task of entering information into the patients records on the computer. I worked on this data entry, until it was time to go to lunch. During my morning tasks at work, I was pretty focused o my job duties and didn't often think of anything else.
I got off at 6 am and was very happy to leave work. I stopped at got a cheeseburger, and came home to play with my dog. I am going to complete this hit and go to bed.
I woke up early and made breakfast for my children. They watched cartoons while I planned out what activities we will do today. I feel tired but not able to go back to sleep.
Woke up, made coffee, smoked a cigarette, turned on the a/c unit. Poured a cup of coffee. I was/am tired and my eyes are sleepy. I'm calm and alert.
I took the dog out when he woke me up at 6:45 on a Saturday morning. After that was done I came in and my girlfriend had started coffee and was making breakfast. I turned on the Premier League coverage and am now watching Aston Villa and Newcastle.
watched tv felt a little tired and had a hard time breathing. Though that i might have to go to the emergency felt like everytime i breathed in my chest hurt
This morning I woke up around 7:30am. I thought to myself it's Saturday and I am waking up early. My cat was meowing at me so i fed him some friskies. Before I decided to do anything else, i thought taking a shower would be best to start my day off right nd get me wide awake. So I took a shower then put on a pot of coffee. I wasn't too hungry so i made myself two eggs with toast. I needed something in my stomach. After I cleaned up I thought it was a good time to go online and check my email and everythin else I needed to do.
My morning begins early as I have insomnia. I took a hot bath, made coffee and checked my e-mail as I am waiting for a certain communication. I organized the dirty dishes in the sink, checked the laundry then made my cup of coffee. I checked the phone formessages, reviewed some downloaded information and now I am working on some surveys.
I woke up, got a cup of coffee, and went outside to sit on the porch. It was a start to a relaxing Saturday.
I get up and usually have to go to the bathroom right away. After that I clean the coffee pot out and make some coffee. I felt a little groggy other than that looking forward for today. I thought about the things I need to get done today.
I slept till 8am. I then woke up and made egg sandwiches for breakfast. Now I am working on mechanical turk.
I sat around and watched television. I was kind of bored, but it was nice to just relax and do nothing. I was pleased to have time to do nothing and have no real responsibilities.
I slept in because it is Saturday and I do not have to teach classes today. I felt very refreshed when I woke up. I spent some time on the internet and read a little bit. I was glad that I had some time to myself today.
I woke up and ate some leftover pancakes from IHOP. They were good. Then I got dressed and brushed my teeth. Now i'm doing this survey.
I got up early after a short night's sleep. I made a quick breakfast of fried eggs, then headed to the car repair shop. I got bad news that the repair would be much more expensive than expected. I am disappointed but not surprised.
I made breakfast and then hopped on the computer. I experienced relief that it's the weekend.
I woke up and fed my cats, I then ate breakfast and got on the computer to work on mechanical turk. I got plenty of sleep so it's a pretty relaxed and easy going morning which I am enjoying.
Woke up later than usual (almost 9AM!) but it's ok since its Saturday. My kids slept late too which is a nice treat. Walked to the bagel store, came home and had breakfast. Now just doing a few turks for some extra beer money. I'm happy today as next eek we're going on vacation. I'm a little anxious as I have lots of work that will be waiting for me when I return.
Got up feeling very tired. Let my dogs out and checked on the horses. Made some waffles and then sat down at computer to begin working for the day. I'm kind of discouraged today with the amount of work available and have a bit of a headache. Hoping tht things start picking up.
I went for a walk shortly after I woke up. I was really nice weather out, so I decided to go. It made me feel happy, there was a nice breeze.
i woke up, went to the bathroom, went to the computer. an half an hour later i started the coffee, went to the bathroom, ate yogurt, then back to the pc to find this study. my feelings, i had none i'm tired.
I got up, took meds, downstairs for a brief workout, back upstairs, showered, dressed, made breakfast and coffee, sat at the computer to eat and visit with mTurk. Has gone pretty smoothly thus far; wish this headache I've had all week would quit, otherwie feel pretty good.
I ran an easy 9 miles. My legs felt somewhat sore and tired until around 5 miles, then I felt better. Toward the end, I was running behind this woman who was walking two dogs, one of which was a pit bull. As I drifted toward her right to go past, the pt bull turned, stepped into my path, barked, and lunged at me. I had to stop to prevent myself from running right into the dog and probably getting bitten. Luckily, the woman pulled the leas tight and I was able to go past.
I woke up and surfed the internet, checked up on e-mails and then had some breakfast. I felt depressed because I was a victim of major financial fraud and I'm trying to put my life back together.
woke up stared at the ceiling, got up and used the bathroom washed my hands, made some oatmeal, i felt good i woke up with lots of energy even though its a gloomy day outside
I am watching my parents dogs for the weekend so I am sleeping at their place on the couch. I woke up and let the dogs out. I then made some coffee and got on my latop to check mturk. I had a dounut for breakfast and that is about all I have done so far. eeling really tired as I dont sleep well on their couch.
As of right it's about mid morning and so far I've not done much. Upon waking up I didn't really want to get out of bed but then I thought about how I need to make a little bit of money and so I got right on up. After getting up I made some breakfast fo my children, which is always hectic (I have 7 kids). After that I reluctantly but somewhat excitedly sat down at my computer to see what Mturk has in store for me today.
I woke up early and had some cereal. I had work to do, so I started. I have been feeling just a bit odd lately due to a minor incident at work. It is not a big deal, but I always have to work through these things, which may take a day or so. I cooked somefood later and did more work.
I wake up with the alarm. I stumble around a bit then take my pills. I grab some coffee and a shower, then sit down and start work. I wonder when I will start to get better.

I already have my cats fed for the morning and might go watch a ocumentary on history later this morning. I also chatted with my son and got updated on all he is doing this morning.
I work from home, and I was up early, so I took the opportunity to catch up on my favorite TV show before I had to start work. It was very relaxing, and the show is a lot of fun, so overall it was a very pleasant experience. I also felt some relief since n-demand only keeps so many back episodes of a show.
Got up and turned on the computer and the TV. Watched Sprtscenter to see if the pirates won or lost last night. Checked Ebay on the computer and fixed breakfast of a couple of Pop Tarts. That brings us up to date.

I slept until about 7am, when my baby started waking up. I put my contacts in and went to change and feed her. I was pretty groggy from the night before, but got a full 7 hours of sleep, so that was actually better than normal. My husband was packing to g on an overnight trip and I was a little annoyed that he was going, but knew that he would be home soon. I changed and fed the baby and then played with her for about 45 minutes until she was ready to go down for a nap. I love playing with her so much. I ade myself a coffee and started turking.

I got up early this morning, very tired as I am every morning. I always grab a soda early so I don't get a caffeine headache.

I chec my email, read a few articles, and load up the video game I'm currently playing. I heat up some breakfast and play my game until works becomes available on MTURK. A pretty boring, typical day for myself.
I'm a couponer, so early in the morning, I put my shopping list together, and gathered up my coupons, and headed out early to beat any rush.

It's an activity I usually enjoy, but it's blistering hot recently, and I am not a fan of hot weather.

Next time, I want to do something productive in addition to waking up early.
I went to Target to get a new water bottle. I was going to go to the gym this morning, but I have recently started going to a new gym that does not have enough water fountains.

Then I went over to my mother in law's. I took my dog with me so that she could play with my mother-in-law's dog. Mother-in-law and I smoked and drank coffee.

I yawned a few times then I washed my hands and proceeded to get my favorite thing in the morning, a pepsi. I felt tired when I got up because I id not sleep well at all but that first drink of pepsi felt so good going down. That pepsi is all I need for breakfast. I am now at my computer smoking the first cigarette of the day and doing a survey on mturk. All is good so far.
I had a late night so I decided to just sleep in. The weather was rainy this morning so it was a good day to sleep late. All I've done since waking was have breakfast and then turned the computer on.

I slept in later than I normally do because I don't have to work today. After waking up I mowed my yard, because I get a sense of relaxation and "completion" from making sure my chores are complete so I can do what I want for the rest of the day, knowing haven't neglected my duties. After that, I fixed myself some breakfast and washed the remaining dishes that were in the sink. It was a good morning.

Woke up and showered. Put away clean laundry. Got dressed. Came downstairs and made a bowl of cereal and some toast and ate it all. Put away the dishes and now am sitting on my computer. It was a simple weekend routine so I didn't overthink anything excep that I was hungry.
I had a bowl of cereal and then went to a cafe to have tea while working on a final for an free online class I am taking. I experienced a great deal of anxiety in working on the final as it is in a subject I know little about, even though I am not taking his class for credit or paying for it. I want to understand the topic. Someone sitting next to me noticed what I was working on and started a conversation with me. I felt by turns shy, imposed upon, warm and grateful. As I was somewhat puzzled by the convrsation, the person who started it did not continue it for more than about 8 minutes and then left. However, I was able to engage in very fruitful discussion. I pulled out a diagram we were given in the class, which puzzled me. I did this intuitively. Thestranger then gave me a description of how they perceived this. By thinking a little in a general way about what the stranger had said overall and especially about the diagram, I was able to make a significant breakthrough in the exam. I felt then very grteful. I also had some insights into how online classes are just not enough in learning and why social interaction in learning (even in the formal way it often occurs in a physical classroom) is so important. I hardly even enjoyed my cup of tea as I was s involved in what I was working on and in the conversation.
I woke up this morining thinking about my day tomorrow. I am supposed to be going to the zoo, but forgot I had to work tomorrow, so I was mad, but realized I could still go afterwork. Then I made and ate breakfast, and now I am working on M-Turk. I feel ecited, but jittery at the same time becasue I have so much stuff going on right now in my life, in addtion to getting ready to relocate soon.
This morning I got out of bed and dressed for my daily walk. I stepped outside just as the sun passed over the horizon. It was a warm but not humid morning and I was feeling great. I stretched for about 5 minutes in order to warm my body for the mile and half jog that I was about to take. After shaking my body loose I took off at a slow jog. I ran passed the park and could smell fresh grass being cut. I had so much energy to burn, so I increased my pace. By the time I was halfway through my run I was sprnting. My leg felt great and I was overjoyed as wind whipped my face. Toward the end of my run my legs had began to burn. An ache that I was oh too familiar with. My body was tired as I rounded the corner onto my street, but I didn't slow down. When I finlly made it home heart was thumping and my legs throbbing. I started my cool down, which lasted about 5 minutes . After finishing I sat on my porch and just relaxed before going into the house to shower.
I woke up about 6:30 to feed the cats. I checked the Sunday morning ads to see what was on sale. I did a computer back up on a hard drive and then did a few MTurk tasks since I like to be quiet in the morning so my husband can sleep in. My thoughts andfeelings keep going back to the week we had. It's been stressful here lately and it's hard to shake that feeling, even though it was a quiet morning.
Mornings are the worst part of my day. I wake up drowsy, stuffed up in the nose, body aches, and sluggish. I don't want to talk or socialize in any form. I have coffee, very small something to eat, like a banana, and either sit down at the computer to heck any emails, etc. figure out what pills to take to make me feel better, and much of the time get back into bed and go back to sleep.
I got up and cooked some sausage for breakfast. After eating, I turned on the computer and went online. Once online, I logged into one of my client's sites and started completing some work for them. After taking a break from work, I got on Mturk to loo for some surveys to complete.
I biked to church to attend the Sunday service. As usual for my church there was a lot of singing of hymns as well as the lessons, sermon, etc. I couldn't focus very well today, my thoughts kept scattering to other things from my daily life - books I've rad, a play I saw recently - rather than concentrating on the service, which irritated me with myself. I noticed that my singing voice wasn't very good today, but I still fairly enjoyed the service. After church I stopped by the church's coffee hour to geta snack and then left.
This morning I woke up at 8 AM, I immediately went to the kitchen to make coffee in my coffee maker. I then turned on the TV to watch while my coffee was brewing. After having coffee I took a shower. After getting out of the shower I got dressed for the dy. After getting dressed I turned on my computer and started researching stocks. I then went to mechanical TURK to do some work. Overall I had a pretty good morning and felt good, I had plenty of sleep the night before so I felt rested. I had a good mornig.
I woke up around 8AM. We had a 6.0 magnitude earthquake last night, so that was the topic of discussion this morning. My husband made breakfast and we sat around reading about the earthquake.
got my son up at 5:30 so he could make it to work then laid back down until 8. Got up, made coffee and started laundry. Still doing laundry and strolling the internet
I woke up, took a shower, played with my cats, fed my pet rats, then got some breakfast. Afterwards, got on my laptop to listen to Nirvana and search for job opportunities on Amazon mTurk, and I also sent my resume to an alternative news site. It was prety enjoyable, although my father had told me that my sister would wash dishes since I have been doing them every single day, and no one else has helped. However, my calm was interrupted when my mother yelled at me from upstairs (I am in the basement currenly) and told me to do the dishes. I don't know why, but it seriously damaged my calm and now I'm in a worse mood. I had my day planned out and I do not like the tone she uses with me. If she'd approached me in a less hostile way, I would be much more willng to wash the dishes. Besides that, I greatly enjoy playing with my pets, and they make me very happy. I swear to God, if my mother comes downstairs again, I will be really pissed off. I'm going to wash the fucking dishes, but she's got an awful habit ofcontinuously wearing me down and down by nagging me until the task at hand is completed, even if there is plenty time and I WOULD NOT HAVE FORGOTTEN ON MY OWN. I apologize, I'm really quite relaxed, but her intrusion on my privacy irked me.
It was just a normal day...I drove there, didn't enjoy it, and went home. But what can you do, you have to work.
I woke up and read the newspaper. After reading the newspaper, I ate breakfast and got ready for church. I left for church and was there for an hour before coming home. I then sat outside and relaxed for a while.
It is sunday. Slept in till about 10am. tyical for me on the weekend. Woke up in good spirits, Feeling good. got some juice and hopped online just to check daily events. Mood was kind of taken back after reading about earth quake in San Fran. then jumped nto theshower. Had to meet with family, mother, step father, uncle and aunt for lunch. Lunch went well, lifted my spirts again. How just relaxing, content, with no speical plan for the day. going to play it by ear.
Was traveling all of last week. Slept in until around 11am. Went to Panera and got some bagels and a latte. Did the laundry. Watched a TV show.
This morning I woke up around 10 AM. This is about when I typically wake up on a Sunday, I try to sleep in a bit since it's day to relax. I then started working on some things I needed to take care of for my job. I work from home, so I generally do workat my apartment or a coffee shop, but I usually don't work on weekends. I'm working on major proposal right now, however, so I needed to get some work done over the weekend to get it ready to submit later this week. I've been working for a few hours, eaing breakfast (Some banana bread) and coffee while working, and am now taking a break while waiting for a call to talk about the proposal with a couple of my colleagues. I've been pretty annoyed today because this is the 5th straight weekend I've had to ork, and I'm getting fed up with the long hours I've been putting in for my job.
I walked to the bakery and got myself a doughnut. It was extremely relaxing and indulgent. I enjoyed the sunshine and walked about 2 miles there and back. I like to do this occasionally on Sundays, and it makes me feel less guilty for the calories when I alk.
I woke up, washed the dishes from yesterday, spoke to family over the phone, took a shower, and now working on mturk sometime before I begin cooking lunch. I felt a bit bored and had nothing to do, I also feel that I miss my family.
When I woke up, I watched the TV morning show. I got washed up and dressed. Then I got downstairs and prepared everything for breakfast. My husband and I waited for my mother in law to wake up. She is in her 90s and it takes her longer and longer to get rady, so I was started to get hungry when she came out. We watched the Sunday morning shows while eating and she perused the newspaper. It was kind of irritating, but the food was good.
I got up and let the cat out, had breakfast, and read the paper. It feels like every other Sunday morning. It is humid and I have been perspiring.
I awoke and went for a 2.5 mile walk around my neighborhood. I retuened and turked and my sons made me brakfast of eggs benedict and mimosas. It was a delicious meal and I appreciated their efforts a great deal
I went out to my garden and picked some fresh tomatoes, onions and peppers. Picked some basil and parsley too. I prepared my meatballs for the sauce I was making. Made a fresh salad to eat at lunch time. Played with my dogs in the yard for a while andwhen my grandchildren woke up I made them breakfast. Its a typical Sunday. I always have people over for dinner and its a nice relaxing day. Cooking relaxes me. My main thoughts for the morning were my preparations for dinner.
I got up, took a shower and got dressed. Then I put clothes in the washer and made breakfast. After that I did some things on the computer for a while. Then I went for a walk around the block to get some exercise. I noticed the nice weather and yards f the houses I passed. I thought about the design of the houses and considered what to do for the rest of the day.
I woke up and made scrambled eggs and coffee. Then I got on MTurk and did some HIT's. I then took a shower.
I had breakfast, meditated, read a book for a while, and walked the dog. It was a fairly ordinary morning.
It's Sunday so I'm off from work as usual like every Sunday. I slept in, woke up a bit late, made myself some breakfast and watched some television. My thoughts were about returning to work and what all I have to do today in terms of getting my chores dne and taking care of my hobbies and such. My thoughts were on some international affairs that the tele mentioned a bit also. It was just another lazy Sunday morning just as is typical.
i got up and did some shopping at the grocery store. i came home and put everything away and made breakfeast for my kids. after that i watched a movie and did laundry. i cleaned up the house and just relaxed
I woke up and brushed my teeth. Then, I made an egg and ham croissant sandwich. I was tired and lethargic. My mind was empty.
I stayed in bed late this morning because I was sick. I thought about what I should do this afternoon and felt better afterwards.
Got up no later than usual, grabbed a drink from the fridge and checked my usual web pages. I felt as though it was going to be a particularly lazy day and looked forward to accomplishing nothing.
I had to work on my dad's truck and it was incredibly tiring and I just wanted to get it done as quickly as possible.
I just slept in late because it's a weekend and I don't have school. After that, I played smartphone games for a little bit. Then I went onto MTURK to earn a little money before good HITs get taken. It was all very pleasant and mundane.
Well I guess it could be both went to work/stayed at home because today I decided to work on mturk. I searched for HITs, did quite a few and made a decent amount of money. I mostly did other research studies but I also did some data collecting/entry tasksand something to do with recording sentences. I was thinking how today was a pretty good day and that most of the tasks I was doing were pretty interesting and engaging (they often aren't).
First thing was dog walking. After feeding them breakfast, I did some laundry. Then cleaned up the basement. Rather monotonous, didn't really think about anything other than the to do list. Played with the dogs some before showering, that made me laug because they are funny little problem poochies.
I woke up and went outside for a cigarette. It was a very nice day out. I was very relaxed while outside. I then went in and took a even more relaxing shower. I cooked some scrambled eggs and veggies which I thought was delicious. Now I'm here doing this urvey. Overall a very decent morning
Today is my last day of paid vacation from work. I chose to sleep in and woke up next to my loving husband at about 10am. We decided to go out to Checker's to get some breakfast and then went to WalMart and bought a phone card for my iPhone to pay for thi next month of service before returning to our apartment by 11:30am. I was happy when I woke up today because both myself and my husband have today off of work so we get to spend some time together! We've only been married since last December and we are sill happy together - off to a good start! :)
I woke up and went to the bathroom to wash my face. I felt really tired but splash of water in my face woke me up a bit. I then turned on the computer and waited for it to boot up. I then looked up some news see if there was anything interesting. I felt hngry so I ate some egg tacos with some bacon and some orange juice which I enjoyed very much. I then continued to surf the web and felt bored so I then decided to watch a tv show online.
Today was my first day off in a couple of weeks, so I slept in much later than I would usually have the opportunity to. I awoke feeling well rested, and after some morning conversations with family members and friends, I sat down for breakfast and organizd myself for the coming day.
Today has just been a regular weekend day. I woke up watched the newsand cooked breakfast for my son and myself. After breakfast I helped my son get ready for his day and I took a shower and got ready for my day. Today has been a fairly lazy Sunday.
I woke up, brushed my teeth, and went to my computer to do some work. It went smoothly and I feel pretty content for the most part. No complaints.
I got up, made breakfast and started working. I felt normal and happy going about my normal activities.
I woke up and did the previous night's dishes. When my child woke up I took care of his diaper change and played with him. It was a good morning. I was in a great mood.
When I woke up, I had my morning coffee. I took my dogs for their morning walk. When I returned back I made and had breakfast, I then read news articles.
I woke up at 6:40, which I was not surprised, but slightly disappointed by. I took my vitamins, used the restroom, and then fed the fish. Once the fish was fed I made breakfast of nutella on toast. It was nice and quiet so I turned on my computer. Whie trying to keep my feet up my cats decided to get into everything, and I became slightly enraged and did a lot of water bottle squirting. Around 7:45 I made my first cup of chai and tried to enjoy it while web surfing, only to bugged by the cats. Once ther people woke up they calmed down, which didn't happen until 8:30. It was not a really relaxing morning.
Well as I mentioned I slept in so there isn't much detail. I didn't go to bed until almost 4 am and even then it took me about 30 minutes for my brain to calm down. But after that I was in bliss and slept really well. I had a few dream but I can't remeber them. I woke up a little after noon when I heard the TV on in the living room as my roommate was up watching Happy Gilmore.
I woke up at 9:00 to my alarm. I laid in bed for a few minutes before getting up to go to the bathroom. I got back and checked my computer and warmed up some pizza from last night. After that I turked and watched some tv.
I made coffee, ate bananas, mentally prepared myself for work in a few hours, and continued the stream of thoughts I was having about a girl last night before I went to bed. They were all positive feelings.
I got up a little early and immediately made some coffee. While it was brewing I made my bed, brushed my teeth and put on my shoes. After I drank my cup of coffee I went out on the deck and sat in a chair for a few minutes. I was tired and groggy and wondring why I decided to get up so early on a Sunday. After I went back in I started to wake up a little and thought that I would listen to my mp3 player because I was a little bored.
I woke up this morning at 9am. Immediately I was sad because I do not get to wake up with my husband every morning. We have been separated by immigration for over 5 years now with no end in sight. I always start my day off like this; feeling hopeless. I gt out of bed and use the restroom, get a drink, and sit down at my computer desk. I get on mturk to make some money so I can hopefully buy a plane ticket to see my husband at Christmas. I continue to do work online until my husband wakes up to skype chat e. It is 1:30pm right now and I'm still mturking.
I woke up and looked and junk on the internet until my wife woke up. Then we got a text about going out to lunch with friends later. Then I worked in my workshop for about an hour. I felt happy and content.
I woke up and laid in bed for a moment. At that point, I read my Bible and then the Whole 30 Newsletter on my phone. Then I got out of bed, went to the bathroom and let my dog outside. After that I tried a new recipe where I made peach/coconut eggs (disguting) and drank coffee with coconut milk (delicious). I then read for a while and went to church. I was a little sad at church because my boyfriend is at drill this weekend and my best friends moved away last weekend. Also church was about the importance f friendship. That's all.
I am sitting on my chair and looking at laptop. I am feeling sad since school starts tomorrow.
This morning I took a shower and then i spent time on the computer playing games. I was unhappy because I have a sun burn and it hurts a lot.
I wake up and made breakfast for the family. It was a relax Sunday, i feel relaxed. After we had breakfast, i continuously did some light housework . Then i watch TV for few minutes.
I woke up and had my coffee, then my mother asked me to help weed the blueberry cage which took about 20 minutes, it was hard but satisfying work because I love blueberries. I then vacuumed the downstairs while my brother washed the dogs.
I woke up and made myself some coffee. Afterwards, I worked alongside my dad to fix my air conditioner. Once it was fixed, I took a shower and am now completeing tasks on mturk.
I woke up kind of late, poured a bowl of cereal then went to the gym. There was somebody using the dumbbells when I first got there so I went and worked on my abs. Then he moved over to a different machine so I started working my upper body. It felt good nd I got a really good workout. He was listening to rap music from ten years ago though and it made me think "Doesn't this guy know more music has been made in the past decade?" I felt really healthy and strong afterwards so I felt happy.
I slept in until 10:30. Then I laid in bed and played on my phone until 11. I was very relaxed and enjoyed just laying in my bed.
I woke up to my cat in my face cuddling me. I ate breakfast and drank coffee. I watched the end of a movie I have already seen. Then I got on mechanical turk to make some money. It was a slow morning and I was tired. I had thoughts of romance when I watchd the movie and feelings of exhaustion for being so lazy.
I have had a busy week so I slept in today (Sunday). I actually woke up around 5:00 am and then went back to sleep and didn't wake up again until 8:45 am. I then got up and made a breakfast of toast, eggs, and salami along with coffee and milk. I felt little sluggish and was surprised by how tired I was. Yet, the weather was nice so I felt calm and peaceful. I then took a shower, got dressed, and headed to the library.
Woke up, went outside, ate a banana, went back to sleep. It was a calm and peaceful morning. Thoughts were on what my plans would be for the day and for the next coming weeks.
I met my friends for breakfast at a little waffle house. I met them there by walking, and I got up around 10 am. We were seated fairly quickly at the restaurant and I ordered chocolate waffles with strawberries. It was absolutely delicious. My friends andI talked about how our week had been and planned to get together again next weekend. I then paid my bill, said goodbye, and walked back home.
I woke up around 9:00 am. I kind of slept in longer then I would because I did not have work today. After I woke up I got out of bed feeling refreshed and excited that I finally had a day off. I then went to the kitchen and had some cereal for breakfast hat filled me up. I then watched some tv and played some video games to pass the time
I took order entry calls for six hours straight and I listened to customers complain about their lives.
I made peach salsa, peach jam and then canned /jarred them and then made breakfast with my girlfriend. I felt happy. it was fun

I slept in until about noon, and when I woke up I was just like "wowww, did I really sleep that long" Then I made some tea and got on mturk
This morning I woke up and went to the gym in my apartment complex. Upon arrival I ran on the treadmill for 30 minutes. It was relaxing and allowed me to clear my head after a long saturday night out.
This morning I got up a bit late so I ended up grocery shopping without having had breakfast yet. I ended up with a lot more snacks than normal (realized upon putting away the food). I enjoyed it, there wasn't much of a crowd (I go at 8:30AM) and traffic as light. I get a bit excited because I always buy something nice for lunch (today was California rolls) and can look forward to meals I'll prepare during the week.
I try to go for a 30 to 45 minute bike ride each morning. My tire was flat and I had to change it before leaving. I ate then changed into my bike shorts and shirt. I usually go on vigorous rides to a neighboring town, but I decided to go on a leisurly rid today. I listened to songs by Stars. It was really nice outside, and I had slept fairly well, so I really enjoyed myself. It made me feel much more awake and ready for the day.
i mowed the grass and cleaned out my car. it was a good morning because i got a nice sweat going while i worked.
Sleep in very late as I was exausted from the last 3 days of work. I thought about my supervisor at work and what a soul crusher she is and how I wish she was not in charge of such a fun job. Got in a fight with my roomate over her she thinks I should jus smile at her and I have for 1 year now and she still treats me like dirt. Worked on the computer enjoyed looking at the beautiful ocean outside of my window
I woke up a few times throughout the morning, yawned, and rolled over. I thought about my friends and my girlfriend for a bit and went back to sleep. Eventually I woke up and then I checked reddit and facebook. I ate a pancake with whipped cream on top whch was tasty and then sat down to answer some surveys. I experienced some general lethargy and thoughts of the past.
I looked at my clock in bed at around 6:30am. I then went in and out of sleep for another 2 hours. Then I got up feeling like crap and made some coffee.
In the morning, my family and I went to the park and played while we ate snacks. My children and I had fun playing on the swings because we enjoy time together. It's important for parents to spend quality time with children. I love seeing them laugh and njoy themselves. It makes me feel like they are happy and secure. Nothing makes me happier than my children. I enjoyed watching them and listening to their laughter.
I woke up and came to my mom's room. I talked to her for a bit which was very nice because we haven't had a chance to talk much since she's been working. Then I returned to my room to get my computer to start working on mturk HITs so that I can pay some o the money I spent on my new macbook.
I woke up hungover, chugged a bunch of water, made some eggs and a bagel and ate it with a large cup of coffee. It was not a particularly great morning. I was extremely tired and generally in a bad mood.
I woke up with my fiancee and we lounged in bed for a few moments before we got up and showered together. I had a donut for breakfast, then left my home and drove to work. Work was thoroughly mind-numbing; it is Sunday, and we are very, very slow. I taked with my co-workers for most of the day.
woke up, went on my computer to check the news, talked to my sister, now I'm doing this survey. I felt tired, then suddenly awake, then I sat in bed wondering about the news, a recent earthquake, and my relationships with friends, family, and what I had t do today
I cooked breakfast at home. I watched TV and did laundry all morning. It was an easy boring morning but I loved it. I need a day to not do much.
I had to go to one of my rental properties and work on two toilets. Found the place really dirty and the bathrooms were nasty. The whole time I was there the couple argued and complained to each other and it was a miserable place to be. Made me feel like was a really clean person with very few mental issues.
I woke up, grabbed a drink, and sat down at my desk to get online. My thoughts and feelings were fairly neutral.
Felt an earth quake this morning, went back to bed. Woke up, had a snack and started on mechanical Turk.
The very first thing I did when I woke up this morning was brush my teeth. I felt pretty happy when I woke up. I slept a little later than I usually do, so I was well rested. Then I put in my contacts and then I took a shower. I was thinking about what I as going to do the rest of the day while I was in the shower. I decided to watch a movie after I got out of the shower. I picked something on netflix and watched it for about two hours. The whole time I was thinking about how good the movie was and I was rying to figure out the plot. Watching the movie did a good job of keeping me from thinking about other things. Overall my morning was great and I felt really good the whole morning.
woke up, made my children breakfast, made myself coffee, had a light snack, worked out, made a smoothie, cleaned up kitchen, took shower, took my kids outside to play, vacuumed the house

I got up and surfed the internet for a while. I then went downstairs to eat breakfast. I had my usual bowl of cereal and a glass of juice. I returned to the computer and continued to research the project I've been working on. It was an uneventful mornng. After using my computer, I took a short nap before lunch. I was thinking about the day I spent with my sister yesterday touring the breweries around town. We had a really great day.
I woke up, talked to my girlfriend about her night and tried to console her, since her ex-boyfriend had broken into her apartment and had to be chased off by the police. I was angry at the time, but this morning we were able to calm down. After that I wen for a run outside, which really cleared my head.
I woke up pretty early today at 7 am. I had gone to sleep late last night, so I was feeling slightly tired when I got up. Because it is a Sunday, I did not have any morning commitments and didn't need to leave the house. Because of that, I stayed at home nd just browsed the Internet, looking for interesting things to read to keep me from falling back to sleep.
I woke up this morning and made waffles for the family, I was really excited because it is National Waffle Day. Since the end of breakfast, I have been nervous and jittery because tomorrow is the first day of school and we have so much to do to be ready. I'm feeling overwhelmed with finding book reports, grocery lists, and finding uniforms.
I awoke very early and got something to eat. Then, I prepared a card and gift for my mother's birthday which was today. I then continue to work on Mturk tasks. Overall, I felt very productive this morning but I could've completed a couple more things to fel even more productive. I felt very mellow about this morning and didn't really have many thoughts throughout the morning.
I woke up at a slightly normal hour, checked the time and how I was feeling. I decided it was best for me to sleep in a little bit longer to help recuperate from the week. It was a great experience and I'm happy with my decision.
I met up with my brother at the gym, we ran on the treadmill for 20 minutes then did various weight machines. Today we worked on shoulders and abs. After weights we sat in the sauna for 10 minutes to rest.
I woke up really early. Had some coffee and a stale donut on the porch. Fed the cats (I have five) and scooped their litter boxes. Then I settled down with my youngest cat on my lap for a day of internet browsing and turking on the side.
I woke up pretty hungover and tired. I left the in-laws, and picked up iHop on the way home. The food was delicious. I was feeling tired and excited to eat.
I woke up and took my friend to work then went to a grocery store to get my weekly grocery shopping done for the week. It was fun and I love getting up early before the rest of the town wakes up and to also get all my shopping done so I can go home and rlax!
I woke up and cuddled with Mary. Eventually I got up and smoked a cigarette before running out to get a newspaper. I really enjoyed holding Mary.
My wife and I got up, then went to the gym for an interval training type workout. Afterward we made breakfast, then showered and got ready. I felt good all morning, even though I got tired from the workout.
I got up around 5:30, checked e-mail and Facebook, played some video games, woke up my son. Made cinnamon rolls for everyone for breakfast. Debated with myself on whether or not I really wanted to go to church, and whether or not we'd stay for Sunday Scool afterwards. Finally decided to go but for the service only. The service was really good though, and by the time it was over I had decided to stay for Sunday School too. On the way home we stopped for toothpaste and dryer sheets at the store, then cme home and gave both dogs a bath. It was a good morning.
This morning, I woke up and started to make breakfast. While I was preparing breakfast, I was doing laundry. It went well. I felt relaxed because I didn't have anything to do on a time schedule.
I woke up and prepared breakfast. After breakfast I did the dishes and sat down on the couch. I have been watching episodes of a TV show on netflix for most of the day. I feel relaxed right now.
I got up, decided I had a headache, so I wanted to go to the later church service. I took an ibuprofen and had a cup of coffee. I was sad that my fiance' couldn't come with me because he has a pizza delivery job. I ate my bowl of frosted mini wheats and eaded to church. I was very annoyed that I got there late and I had to park way in the back and walk a few blocks.
I woke up at about 9:00 because my mom got mcdonalds breakfast, so i ate that. afterwards i layed down on the couch and feel asleep while my dad was watching star trek. I woke up at around noon. I sort of felt like i wasted most of the day but i was alrigt with that
I woke up and had to feed the pets. Once that was done, I prepared a basic breakfast of cereal with milk and ate a banana, as well. I felt groggy and tired the whole time. After, I brushed my teeth and prepared to watch shows. I felt content and happy tha I don't have work today.
My alarm went off at 0610. I had plans to go running, and I thought about sleeping in but after hitting the snooze button twice I got up and got dressed. I was in the car by quarter to seven. The sun still hadn't come up. My back hurt from sleeping ona terrible mattress. Once I got to the park I was disappointed to realize my back hurt so much I wasn't going to be able to run, so I walked instead. I listened to a podcast - I'm really behind on my general listening. The weather was terrible - over 8 degrees and humid by 0700. I spent the whole 3 miles wiping sweat off my face. I went home and made coffee and took a shower, then sat down over coffee to pay some bills.
I normally go to the grocery store on Sunday morning, and did so this morning. I buy groceries for the week. Typically I go with just my young son but today my husband went with me as well. It is always a pretty relaxing chore for me to do. I don't mind ding it and like pushing the cart up and down the aisle and getting everything on my list. I also like chatting with the checker and whoever else is in line. This morning I explained that not all walmart giftcards work in the gas station, only certain ones It felt good to be helpful.
I slept in alot, it felt really good to sleep in after a week of work.
Got up, prayed. Worked on tuitions for schooled. A bit stressed.
I ate breakfast, fed the cat, cleaned out the litterbox, did the dishes, and brushed my teeth. It was all a little tedious but I don't mind doing. I tend to have a little more energy and motivation in the mornings.
I woke up around 11am and made some coffee in my kitchen. I also cooked scrambled eggs and bacon. I was a little hungover from staying out late last night. I was feeling really tired and no thoughts ran through my mind as I did my morning tasks. It was alost like I was on autopilot.
I woke with a bit of pain on my cheek. It was probably due to how I sleep. Dressed myself and went to empty my bladder. Afterwards, grabbed a bowl and filled it up with oats and milk. Microwave action for about 2 or so minutes and added honey. After eatin breakfast and reading the news I went on the craigslist hoping to find a free desk or free flooring becuase I've outgrown the one I currently have and I'm starting to loath carpeting. Progressing through the morning I sent a few email and then opened up turk and eventually found myself writing this summary of my morning.
I went for a walk with my lovely boyfriend and canine companion. We went to the beach and then a park near us. I had very nice, peaceful thoughts as I love being in Nature and with my two favorite beings (Pumpkin, my dog, and Dylan, my boyfriend).
I slept in until 10:00 because I had a headache instead of going to church. I ate some toast and coffee and watched a DVD. I'm tired and ready to not have a headache anymore since it's been 2 days of dull pain.
I woke up and made myself breakfast. I completed a few surveys on mturk while eating my breakfast. I then took a shower and got dressed. I cleaned up my living room a little bit afterwards because a new oven is being delivered today. Then I read two capters in a book that is due for class this week. Then I got back on mturk, which is what I am currently doing.
I slept in and watched soccer all morning. Then I watched a movie with my girlfriend. It was nice and relaxing. I enjoy sleeping in on the weekends and just watching TV and not having to worry about doing anything.
I woke up late, ate a small breakfast, and made rice krispie treats for tomorrow. I felt good, a little sleepy. I would have liked to keep sleeping but I know I have to get up early tomorrow.
I SLEPT IN UNTIL 9.45. MY HUSBAND AND I MET OUR SON,DAUGHTER IN LAW AND GRANDBABY FOR BREAKFAST. WE HAD A GREAT BREAKFAST. WE ARE ALWAYS GLAD TO SEE THEM,ESPECIALLY OUR GRAND CHILD. SHE'S OUR ONLY ONE. SHE ALWAYS MAKES ME FEEL HAPPY ABOUT THE ROAD I TOOK N LIFE. THAT IS HAVING HER FATHER AND AL. IT WAS JUST A GREAT TIME.
My darling toddlers woke me up at 7 am. We got up changed diapers. I made them a bowl of cereal it was Apple Jacks. It was so yummy. We then built with legos and watched some Sofia the first. It was a delightful chipper morning
Woke up, ate breakfast (eggs in a basket), watched Simpsons marathon, played video games, went to a yard sale. I was happy and content.
I slept in until about 8:30. Took the dog out for a quick bathroom break. It was good because he did not react to the dogs that bark at him as we walk by. It's usally strssful for us both and I get mad that the other owners don't do anything about it. I ten made myself some huevos ranchers for breakfast. I felt proud of myself because I made the green chile from scratch. I then started turking in the morning and that makes me feel productive.
I woke up and immediately went to work. Traffic was almost non existent and that is always nice. It was a pleasant calm ride to work.
I made myself scrambled eggs and toast and sat down to eat with my parents while they watched Suits on USA network. I was content and worried I had eaten too much. My stomach feels much better now though.
This morning I decided to sleep in. I did not get that much sleep earlier this week, so when I initially woke up this morning, I felt that going back and sleeping more was a good idea. It felt really good. I finally feel refreshed and I had some good dreas when I was sleeping.
I slept until near 10, I had not slept well the night before. I tend to get up at least once at night, but this time I got up a few times.
I got up at about 7.30, when my kids woke up. I took a shower and had breakfast (with coffee!) and got dressed. I wore a shirt that was new, and my wife thought it looked good on me. That pleased me. I went to church, but felt a little guilty for not aving gone to the music group that I normally meet with. My wife stayed home with our kids, who are both sick. During the teaching at church, I sat with a church leader from Ethiopia. It was interesting to talk with him. After church I came home to hep my wife with the kids. I felt bad that I hadn't been there to help her, even though she encouraged me to go.
Woke up around 9:00 AM. Watched some TV and made breakfast of yogurt and granola. Drank some coffee as well. I was feeling calm and peaceful during breakfast.Took a shower and went out to the local grocery store to pick up food for the week. It is about a5 minute walk to the grocery store. During my time at the grocery store I was feeling neutral - it is a common task for me and I didn't have to put much thought into it.
This morning I went grocery shopping for the week. As far as grocery shopping is concerned it was OK. Took about 45 minutes to do and spent a little more then planned. After grocery shopping I stopped at Starbucks for a coffee. I felt fairly indifferet to the whole process as it's something that I do every Sudnay. I lamented the fact that food prices have gone up. At least my coffee was good.
I wake up and before I even eat I go for a nice 2 mile run. I do this usually every day. It helps to get my heart rate up and feel more awake.
It's Sunday so I slept in until 10 am. I had coffee with my husband, browsed the internet, and we watched a few old episodes of the Sopranos together. I thought of the things I had to do like clean house and shower, but I let the stress pass and just enjyed my morning. I was happy.
I stayed in bed until about 11:45. I decided to get up while it was still somewhat before noon. I came downstairs, started a load of laundry, started the dishwasher, and fed the cat. Then I settled on the couch to watch TV and check Facebook. It was stilltoo early for thoughts or feelings to be forming yet, but everything was going just fine.
I slept in for a long time. I got home quite late last night, and I've had a stressful week where I haven't slept much. So I took advantage of my time off and I caught up on my missed sleep. I also cuddled in bed with my cats for a little while, and then got up and had some cereal for breakfast.
I played on my ps3 this morning, though I felt really bored so it was more of a way to pass the time.
I was pretty tired from watching movies late Saturday night, so I was sleeping for the majority of this morning. I was calm, happy and sedate
I was woken up by my toddler at 7:30 am. I felt like it was too early and was cranky. I got out of bed and went to the kitchen to make coffee as she ran around. I was happy to not have anywhere to go. I made a big breakfast of eggs and potatoes and we satdown at the kitchen table to eat them. I felt content. I opened the windows and thought about what I should do for the rest of the day.
get up, read a bit, check facebook. Eat breakfast and make breakfast for the kids. Then, get them off to school.
It was dark and a bit chilly as I started out. It was hard to see the sidewalk beyond dark blurs and I worried a bit about stumbling over cracks or grass clumps. The neighborhood was quiet and I spotted only the rear lights of one car far ahead. I stared out a bit tired but quickly gained strength and within a few blocks was walking briskly.
Woke up at 7:40am to a house without power. We called the electric company and they told us it would be back on by 11:30am. 1:00am comes around and still no power so we called them back and they said "as soon as possible". We drove over to my girlfriends ads house and have been here since just watching tv.
I had a cup of coffee, and ate a hash brown, and started to work for mturk
It is Sunday morning, so I got up, took a shower, gathered my children and we went to Sunday services. It was a lovely sunny day and it was a warm, enjoyable service today.
I woke up early and made my daughter breakfast. I laid in bed with my husband and watched television while we read news on our phones. Then I had coffee and breakfast and surfed the web. I was happy, enjoying time with my family and felt peaceful.
I slept in this morning. I was very tired and felt like extra sleep would be nice to prepare me for the week ahead.
I woke up, ate breakfast, and played a couple of games on my Xbox 360. After, I cleaned the area in my room a bit and prepared to head back to college. I felt great until I tried ordering a 12 month Xbox live membership card from overseas earlier and forgt that my bank doesn't allow overseas transactions. I have a hold placed on my account now until I call them back, which put a bit of a damper on my mood this morning, but it's nothing serious.
Well, technically I was up since last night watching the second humger games movie, which counts as being this morning since it was past midnight. But I went to sleep, got up, went to church fast, came back and am now going to take another nap.
I stayed in bed until late. Haven't been feeling well at all. I got up made my elderly disabled mother something to eat and drink and then I got back into bed and took a pain pill and muscle relaxer. I am very depressed because I have been sick for over week.
I woke up too early, then I went back to sleep. I laid in bed and watched TV and then went for a walk. I was tired, sleepy and exhausted.
This morning, I got up and went to IKEA. I really enjoy going there, but it is incredibly annoying on the weekend since the store is full of screaming children. I was also a bit disappointed to find out that a loveseat I wanted to buy was sold out, but chalked that up to students getting ready to go to college.
Woke up, through on a pot of coffee, then went back to bed. Woke up two hours later feeling great. Poured a cup for myself and worked on my writing while listening to some classical pieces of orchestral music.
Woke up at around 10 AM and watched the news about the earthquake. Now I'm on this site. I feel bored and doubtful that I'll find suitable work soon.
I went to the store for some groceries. I drove the three blocks, parked, and went into the store. I got the necessities, i.e. milk, Orange juice, toilet paper, napkins. I kept seeing things I did not need but wanted. I felt a pang in my stomach passig these items. I wanted them bad, but, I only came for the things I needed. I succeeded in not wasting any money and proceeded to the check out. Afterwards, I was hungry. I went and grabbed lunch at a fast food place which wasted my resolve in the groery store. I felt like I let myself down.
I slept in and woke up with a lot of sleep. I felt lazy but its sunday
I woke up very late in the morning at about 11:30 a.m. and I felt very rested and happy. I got out of bed and took a shower and then ate a bit of food.
I woke up and worked on some HITs on MTurk. Then I showered. I ran some errands, specifically to Home Depot, then to Walmart and finally to Panda Express, where I ate. I felt good and accomplished for finishing my errands. I also felt groggy when I first oke up but the shower put some pep in my step.
I went to church and prayed and it was so very nice. I really enjoyed it.
I woke up this morning and called my mom. We spoke on the phone for about an hour. I felt good and happy after i talked to her. I felt relieved.
After waking up, I did the usual routine for a Sunday. I made coffee, let the dog out, started some laundry and dishes. After that, I decided that is was necessary to mow the lawn. It was hot and very humid. It was uncomfortable and not something I wantedto do but had to as trash pickup is in a couple days. I do not like it sitting around.
I wake up, open the blinds throughout the house, make my daughter breakfast, give my daughter her vitamins, grab water and check my email. I feel groggy and sluggish and I think about my chores for the day and plan them out.
i reached for my glasses and felt the need to piss. i pissed in my bathroom. i laid in bed for awhile and rolled around. grabbed my wife's titty to wake her up. loaded and blazed a bong. took my dogs out for a walk. came home unhappy about the heat. i mad breakfast and then i started mturking.
At about 6:30 this morning my sleep was broken by my 1 year old son. I was still really tired and wanted to sleep longer but he wanted some juice, so my husband went into the kitchen to make him a cup of juice. My son drank his juice and then restlessly mved all over my bed while i was still in bed hoping to get some more sleep. Well, my son finally went back to sleep after all his restless moving and then me and my husband went back to sleep. We slept until 9:00 am. At the time I was very frustrated wen my son woke up so early. I like to sleep longer on the weekends but many times my baby wont allow it. Just one of the many sacrafices of parenting.
I went to a special breakfast event with my friends and family. It was a good time and we had a lot of fun. During this experience I felt happy, accepted, and fortunate to have the life I have.
My dog came over to my side of the bed and put her nose in my face which is Ginger speak for "time to get out of bed you lazy ass" . So I did. She is the boss of me when it comes to walks. The sun was shining but the air was still a bit cool and it wasperfect. Everything is green, there are a bunch of other people out walking with and without dogs, its a beautiful morning. This is why she can be the boss of me for walks. I thought about going for a hike later in the week to take adavntage of the weater that won't last, I laughed out loud at my dog's antics as she tried to bite a flying bug out of the air and then tried to climb a tree after a squirrel. It was a happy morning.
I woke up before 8AM and basically stayed in bed for a while reading a book called "Unbroken." I groomed facial and body hair and then took a shower. I then played GemCraft for hours while eating fish stick sandwiches. I just thought about how I shouldbe getting work accomplished or I should go outside, but I didn't feel like it. With heat and humidity it is over 90 degrees, so I didn't feel too guilty.
I had a meeting to attend for a non-profit organization I am involved with. The meeting went pretty well, I had a few moments of great joy to see some productivity out of new attendees.
I stayed home today because its sunday. My kids woke me up at 7am for breakfast and then I had to walk the dogs and give them their breakfast. I did some yard work and cleaned the entire house. Did all the laundry and got my kids clothes picked out for scool tomorrow. I always hate sundays because there is always so much to do before the week starts again.
My children and I went to church this morning. I enjoy going to church with my kids and my husband.
I woke up in the morning pretty abruptly because my alarm was going off and I didn't quite hear it. I woke up my dog and went downstairs to take him outside. I got his food, went to the bathroom, put in my contacts, and took him outside. I was feeling prety tired. I got my coffee and then started to feel excited about the day and going to church.
I woke up at 6:30 P.M. when my phone alarm went off. I thought to myself that "already" as I felt unsatisfied with the amount of sleep. I only had 4 hours. I walked into the bathroom and took a shower feeling tired. I got dressed. I brushed my teeth and andered into the kitchen. With my stomach growling and feeling hungry, I prepared oatmeal and a protein shake. I ate at the kitchen table and then grabbed my keys and walked down to my car. I drove about 15 minutes to work. I dread it every day and today as no different. I work in a restaurant. All morning, I prepped the food for lunch service and I took a break about noon.
I woke up, made some breakfast and coffee and watched a little tv. I then felt restless and decided to take the dog for a long walk before work. I walked the dog for an hour, then felt tired, came home and took a shower.
I had too much fun yesterday night with my friends partying. So now today I slept in and just woke up to do some turk surveys. Despite sleeping in I still feel really tired and drowsy. I feel like I want to sleep more.
I decided to have a lie-in for the first time in a few days. I had been getting up early (6:30 AM) the past few days, and figured that, it being Sunday, I'd spend a few extra hours in bed. I quite enjoyed the extra rest, and for once, was able to put the ares and worries of the past few days on the back-burner.
I got up and got ready for the day which including shower and eating breakfast. Then I drove to church, it was a new church that I have not been to before and it was a good service. I was happy to be in church this morning and I felt like the sermon was mant for me in this point in my life. I went back to my house, ate lunch, watched television, and took a nap. I felt renewed after taking a nap because prior I was starting to get a headache. Finally I went to panera to each dinner and work on some assignmnts. It feels good to be able to get on the internet and get work done because there is not any internet at the house I am staying at during this time.
This morning I woke up and took a shower. I then hopped in the car and drove to work. I work in the French Quarter neighborhood in New Orleans. It's always a nice experience to drive through the historic neighborhood on the way to the office.
Worked on line. Tended to the pool. Spoke with neighbors who wanted to help with a utility company issue. Made a cup of tea. Spoke with friends on facebook. Felt optimistic and eager to get to work.
Wake up, brush teeth wash face, ate breakfast and went online.
I slept in until 10:00 am this morning. After that, I made my breakfast, eat, and then watch Break Bad on Netflix. At of right now, 2:15 PM, I'm working on this survey.
I woke up. I brushed my teeth and washed up. After about an hour of online browsing, I had some eggs. Now it's now. I didn't have any particular thoughts or feelings.
I took my poodle for a walk downtown. I contemplated what I was going to do with the rest of the day and how I was going to finish glazing some pottery pieces. My dog and I walked through the light drizzle and then returned home so he could have breakfas after about a 20 minute stroll.
Got up, put coffee on, took dog for a walk, came home, drank coffee, showered, got (better) dressed, ran an errand or two. I thought it was a nice day with a pleasant breeze and lovely skies. Watered the plants, visited briefly with some neighbors, checke online to see what is happening this evening, made tentative plans to attend a free concert.
After waking up at 8 AM and still feeling tired, I ate a quick meal, took a shower, and started my laundry. I then drove 15 minutes to my relatives house. Through out the 15 minute drive, I felt I did not get enough sleep. After arriving at their house, Imet the people I have not seen in over a month, talked for a few minutes and then went back home to catch some sleep.
I walked down the road to the lake nearby and sat by it for a few minutes looking for the Great Blue Heron I had spotted there last week. I enjoy these peaceful moments alone.
I slept in this morning. I woke up feeling horrible and counterproductive. I feel that I need to make a greater effort to wake up at a decent hour.
I slept until around 11:30. I then asked a friend if we were still going to lunch as we planned the day before. I was tired still, so I didn't bother properly getting up until she replied that she was coming over in about 10 minutes at 12:30. I then ruhed to brush my teeth, get dressed, wash my face, and put on sunscreen. The lack of warning about her coming over didn't really bother me, as I should have gotten up earlier if I didn't want to rush, and she was expected to come over at 12:30.
Got up late since I had gone to bed late last night. Woke up, prayed, made an international call, finished my morning chores and had breakfast. I have also cut my 6 month old son's long hair a little after a lot of controversaries about getting the hai cut in a professional salon versus at home. Now I got some time to work on mturk after putting my son to sleep.
I was camping and I slept in. My friend thought it was funny to act like he left me. He came back and we went to breakffast. It was not a dull morning. I was nervous and jubilent all inh a short period of time.
It's a beautiful Sunday morning. I awoke and fixed some cereal, bananas and milk. Then I went online to see if there was any work available. There was only one job, so I took it, finished it in 40 minutes, then went to mTurk. On mTurk there were a few ITs worth doing so I did them and made about $7. Then I downloaded 3 hours of TV shows from the previous week and watched those.
It was a lazy Sunday for me. There really wasn't too much to think about this morning. Got up, had my morning coffee, watched the news for a little bit, and spent time with the family. It felt pretty good to have a day just to exist and not worry too mch about work or anything like that.
I woke up at got my children up. Made them some breakfast. I took a shower and got myself dressed. I then got my kids dressed and fixed their hair up. I was tired still and feeling rushed because we woke up late. We then went to our place of worship. Once we got there and sat down I felt relieved.
I woke up late this morning, and was annoyed with myself for how late I slept in, missing my yoga class. I made brunch, then settled in to get some work done.
I start work in the early afternoon so I usually stay up very late. Last night I actually went to bed a little early, (1 am). Someone was ringing my bell at 8:15. I thought is was a coworker that wanted to go over the e-mail I sent last night. I ignored hm but he kept ringing the bell. I wan't that tired but I did not want to deal with anyone at that time. I went back to sleep. My first alarm went off at 10:00 and I ignored it, (It stops after a few mins). My second alarm went off at 11:30 so I got up. I ade breakfast and drank some coffee. I was wondering who actually was ringing my bell. It could have been someone else that was going to help me with a small problem. We didn't set in stone when we were going to work on the problem so it didn't really mater to me if it was him. I figured I could deal with it later.
I woke up this morning to the sounds of my newborn baby girl crying. I rolled out of bed at 7 AM and picked her up out of her crib and took her to the living room to soothe her so my wife could get some much needed rest. I spent approximately 15 minutesrocking her, and then put her in her automatic swing. After that, I made myself a pot of coffee, and turned on some soccer games to watch throughout the morning. I have grown to enjoy the sport over the last 2-3 years. During this time, my wife woke upat approximately 9 AM. The baby stayed soundly sleeping until that time. My wife took care of feeding and changing her, and she was asleep again until the afternoon. I quietly enjoyed soccer until about 10 or 11, and then my wife and I turned on some HTV for the rest of the morning. It was a perfectly laid back kind of Sunday morning, and thoroughly enjoyable!
Woke up, brushed teeth, made breakfast ( pancakes), got dressed formally and attented church service with family. It was delightful and relaxing.
I woke up to the phone ringing, it was my father. i spoke to him for over 90 min. As i spoke I multi-tasked cleaning the house while cooking a late breakfast. After I got off the phone I ate, cleaned the kitchen and prepared my clothes for the next day. t was a mellow, but busy day spent with family. I feel calmed but alert active and busy.

Please explain and describe how and why you made your choice:
By flipping the switch you are not directly hurting the other man...you wouldn't know for sure he couldn't get off the track in time. but by pushing the man above the training you would directly be harming him.
it's not fair of me to decide that someone must die in order for others to live. If they make the choice themselves, that's fine, but I don't get to decide.
Even knowing the switches, I felt in that situation I likely wouldn't know 100% if the switches would do that. I don't want to push another man knowing I would kill him. It's not my fault that the men would be run over.
This is a really hard choice because I don't want to hurt anyone. My choice wold be for everyone to be safe.
If I did nothing, it would be morally wrong to sit and watch. If I pushed the man it would be practically assault. I chose to flip the switch and hope the one worker could run fast enough to get off and still feel I tried to help
I wouldnt be able to make a split decision about so many lives like that so I would do nothing and unfortunately let fate take its course.
My thoughts were to save the most amount of people possible with the least amount of loss.
If I flip the switch there may be the chance that the 1 worker escapes still. If I push the man then why didn't I jump off in front of the train myself. I am not too sure any big bodied person would stop a train. Flipping the switch is the only option.
I couldn't not do anything and let 8 men die, but nor could I use my own hands to push someone to his death even if doing so wuold save 5 others, so flipping the switch was the lesser of the three evils.
Pushing the man to save 5 workers may seem like the logical choice, but I don't think it would be fair to said worker. However, on track B, it was more of a choice. Do I choose to let 1 worker die, or 3? Which is why I decided to trigger the switch.
I personally could not make a decision to take the life of any person, to take the life of one to save three, is to me morally wrong. I would be screaming my head off trying to get the attention of the persons in harms way, and I also would be praying.
Basically I don't want to kill anyone, and by not doing anything I know I am killing everyone. However this incident did not state that it was my fault in the first place. So I do not want to push the fat men to save 5 lives because I'm still taking his lfe. I do not want the flip the switch because then i am for certain taking the life of the man on the side track. By not trying to be a hero, I know that more people will die but the blood no ones blood is on my hands and I end up being an innocent by stader to a tragic scene.
I chose the one that would save the most people.
I wouldn't want to be responsible for killing anyone so I wouldn't do anything. Either choice is bad so i lose both ways. If I decide to flip the switch, push the man or do nothing I still kill someone.
First I ruled out pushing the man who was safe on the bridge to stop the train. He was in no danger and I could not be responsible for killing him. I would flip the switch to send the boxacar B down the 2nd track due to it only hitting 1 person, and that erson being in danger (on the tracks) to begin with. Very difficult decision
I do not feel it is my place to "play God", and halt the boxcar progression by deliberately changing the course to hit someone else.
I feel that I couldn't push the man directly to save the workers but flipping a switch felt like I wasn't directly killing someone to save other people. I almos picked doing nothing but that felt like the worst thing I could do was not to do anything.
I could not make a choice that would cause a human's death. It is a quandry though because by not choosing people are going to die. I guess it's just the difference between being an active participant or not.
Because I cannot interfeire with destiny especially if it impacts someone else.
I made the choice that saved the most people. I'm sure I'd feel terrible after pushing the man off the bridge, so it may not have been the right decision. But it had the best result for the most number of families.
taking a life against there will to save another life is wrong.
It is immoral to be involved in the killing of people. Period.
Saving five lives is better than saving one.
not going to get involved in the incident by physically contributing to the death of someone
I made my choice because I wanted to save as many people as I could while inducing the least traumatic experience for myself. I believe in this scenario it would be greedy to not take one life in order to save more than one.
I decided that it was moral to hit the switch on the track because it is better to save more people than just one.
I knew I would have to try to save as many people as I could, but I do not think I could live with myself if I knowingly pushed someone into harm's way
I wanted to choose "1" for all options, but it would not let me. All options are immoral, in a sense, but it is better for 1 person to die than so many others.
because it would limit the amount of people killed by the boxcar
I would rather wash my hands of the whole situation and do nothing than to actively cause the death of another human
I believe pushing the man onto the tracks to be the riskiest choice. If he is a big man, chances are he will not be so easy to push over. Even assuming this was not as issue, I would feel much worse about directly sending a man to his death rather than siply pushing a lever and indirectly killing a man.
I would save 3 lives versus saving one if I push the man or flip the switch. It very immoral but I don't know. I just think 3 lives saving is better than the one.
I did nothing because I didn't know what to choose. Either thing I do is bad.
I value human life so I decided to save as much people as possible that it is acceptable to sacrifice the larger man to save the five people.
I made the choice that would save the greatest number of people. This scenario assumes they are all stuck or deaf, and none of them will help each other. None of the choices are very morally appropriate though. In the real scenario I would probably not thnk and panic though.
I had a hard time deciding what to do because I felt all the options I was giving was completely immoral but I chose to flip the switch because maybe by saving 3 people with only killing one in the process would be the lease immoral
the act of saving more and actively killing one is near impossible, kind of depends on the people being killed. Doing nothing is morally defensible, as morality is by no means an absolute sliding scale. Making decisions fpr those who were not threatened i a step no one really is justified in meking.
I felt I had to do something but I feel like pushing a man to his death is just wrong.
either way someone is going to get killed so might as well make a sacrifice by pushing the large man could save a few workers
I guess I want to believe that if I flip the switch slowly enough or jam it half way, I could save the one man and everyone could be okay.
Sacrificing the life of one individual to save five is okay.
It's not fair to involve people who are not at risk. The people in the way are just going to die.
The life of three people is worth more than one.
how am i supposed to make that decision at all
I thought it was the most moral and least violent.
The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. 5 was the largest number so that is of course the must save first. Then it wouldve been the 3 men on the other track
because it's not right to cause someone to die
I figured it was more important to save four or five people rather then one person from getting killed. Thats why I picked to flip the switch to divert the train car from hitting multiple people.
I would do the thing that saves the most people.
I believe that saving the 5 men for the life of one is worth it.
As guilty as this makes me feel, hitting the switch feels less visceral to me than physically pushing a man in front of the box car. If I did nothing, more people would die. It is a horrible situation.
Pushing the man was not going to work for me - in my mind, I was actively causing someone's death, even if it would have saved 5 men's lives. I couldn't do nothing because then 8 people would die. Flipping the switch seemed the lesser of 2 evils, although6 people would have died.
I saved more people by letting the fat man die. My decision was purely numbers.
I would push the man because it saves the most lives. Throwing the switch is also deciding who lives or dies, so I might as well save the most amount of people.
Even though I'd be saving a larger number of people by taking action, I'd be intentionally and deliberately taking the life of an innocent person who would not have been killed, and I could not do that.
because it is the min effort for me to save most of people
Doing nothing is the worst case and the least moral as I am choosing for everyone to die (except that one guy). Flipping the switch is a little better or pushing the man, as it saves some lives.
I believe that technically to fulfil my morals I should try to save the most people - aka, push the man. However, no matter who I saved, I would feel awful for the rest of my life if I got someone killed through my actions directly. I would prefer to kil through inaction than through action.
I wouldn't want to physically push someone to their death, even though flipping the switch has the same consequence of choosing one person to die to save more, I would personally feel better doing that than physically shoving someone to their death.
I didn't want to physically push someone to their death, even if it would save more people. However, flipping a switch didn't seem that bad, even though I wasn't saving as many people, so I decided to do that.
I feel like I will be haunted for a long time after no matter which option I chose. In a vacuum (and in the comfort of sitting in my room), I made the logical choice of saving 4 extra people, as opposed to 2 or 0. I can't pretend to know how I will feel pyhocologically pushing a man off to a track and killing him, to save other people's lives.
No matter what I did I would feel bad. I couldn't push the one man, but I could ask him if he wanted to jump and save 5 people. I also couldn't flip the switch because then I would still feel like I was the one who got to choose who lived. I would rathr let fate take its course and not have to choose who lives.
Its not my place to decide who lives and who dies
it is the choice in which the least amount of people will die
I wanted to save the largest number of people.
I feel like it would be best to just push him and get it over with.
I think it is the most moral thing to save as many people as possible while sacrificing one or two.
I would not kill an innocent person, even if it meant saving others.
It's not my place to decide who gets to live and who gets to die. It's really that simple. Who am I to say that one person should die to save the others?
The idea that one person, however large can slow down the box car is false. Sacarficing one man who should have been safe in the hopes of saving others is a bad idea. One, you don't know that for sure. Two, his family could sue you. Three, your chance of not getting fired are very small. Four, what are you doing working at this place? Get yourself a different job!
I wanted to save the most people, but I am not tough enough to push someone in front of an oncoming train. Even flipping the switch is basically murder, but I don't know what else to do.
Well, it wouldn't let me choose "not moral" for both push and flip, and I think both of those is ME choosing who lives and dies, and that - to me - is immoral. That's not a choice that's mine to make. We ALL die. ALL of us. Eventually. If these people ar in harms way and will die because of a situation I did not cause, it is not MY duty to take it upon myself to choose winners and losers of life.
I made my decision based on the number of lives I would save. It is better for one person to die to save the life of many.
I feel that if that is what is meant to happen, I should not try to intervene.
Although saving lives is important, purposely killing a man by pushing him is murder. The switch option accomplishes the greatest good without commiting a homicide.
If I were actually given a free choice, I would have let the boxcars hit the workers, thrown the large man onto the gathering crowd, and shot any survivors - but I have to assume that I would be held accountable for my actions, and in that case, pushing te large man to save five workers would be considered murder, leaving the only excusable choices as a) to pull the switch (plausible deniability, I can pretend not to have known of the presence of the one worker on the side track,) or b) do nothing. I chooe a because in that case I at least stand a chance of being able to reap the rewards of being a hero, and of having three workers grateful to me for saving their lives. The extra deaths of the other 6 workers only adds to the tragedy, making my accomplishent as savior of the three that much more heroic.
I don't like any of these choices. So I just went with killing one man instead of a few.
The two choices are just too horrific to make. If I do nothing, it's just nature carrying out its course.
I wouldn't be comfortable actually pushing the man, but I also think it is important to preserve as many lives as possible.
Since both the options involve me murdering someone innocent of any wrongdoing, I wouldn't describe them as moral and I wouldn't even consider them as options.
I just thought about the total number of human lives I could possibly save. By pushing the man, I forfeit his life, but I am able to save the lives of five other men. This option results in the max number of men being saved, so I chose it.
I don't think I could choose who should live and who should die. The universe has chosen that... how do I know that the people or persons I would choose to sacrifice, did not have as much or more right to live than the others? How do I know I wouldn't be aking away a child's only parent, etc.?
I would not want to actively push someone into their certain death. I feel the best thing to do in either instance is to yell loudly at the men to get them to help thenselves. They may on their own realize their plight also and move out of harms way.
Because given the choices I would have to take a human life regardless. So I think its best not to put your hands on it and let nature take its path and then start screaming at the top of your lungs.
I want to save the maximum number of people possible. It is a really tough choice and is something I really do not want to think about. Howver, I feel like my decision is justified.
I would not feel good about intentionally kiliing another person even it was to save the lives of others.
While I generally do believe that it's better to kill a few innocents to save the lives of many, I just couldn't do it in this case. I can't directly kill one person to save five, maybe one to save hundreds or thousands but not five. I couldn't live with yself if I did. By not doing anything I feel it's not really my fault, it was a bad situation and in the end there wasn't much I could do to help the five workers. If I purposefully killed someone though, that would haunt me as that person would not have ied otherwise.
If you do nothing two accidents happen that you aren't involved with but if you choice any of the action you are at fault for killing some one and have to prove it was to save those people.
I really wouldn't know what to do in this situation and would be frozen in thought.
I do not want to be responsible for making that kind of judgment call and essentially taking someone's life, so I'd like close my eyes and say a pray, despite knowing their fates. I just would not feel good kill someone to save more.
Pushing someone to their death is not very moral. Flipping a switch to minimize casualities is OK. Doing nothing in this situation would be OK too, since its not really your decision to decide who gets to live, accidents happen.
if i try to push a heavy man i might not be strong enough to do it therefore the people will die anyway. doing the switch would be easier
Boy I would not like to be in this situation. I chose this option because it would be easier to flip a switch rather than push a man
I don't think I could ever push a man to death. That is a conscious decision to kill him. At least with the switch I feel like I wouldn't be doing it myself.
i saw that if i do either action i would end up causing the death of one person but while i choose i'd better choose to save 5 people and get 4 people killed than to get 5 people killed and save 4
Its not that I think the other options are immoral. I just don't think I could make that choice to switch/push and live with myself.
I find it to be a very difficult decision. I decided not to push the man because it seems worse to directly be the cause of someone's death, that I actually laid hands on him. But I didn't want to do nothing, because more people would die and that seemed orse. So I decided to flip the switch.
I wanted to save the most people possible, since they could not all be saved.
To push the fat man on to the track is to commit murder in a way. The guy is safely standing on an area as a bystander, why would I push him? When it comes to flipping the switch or not, I don't think I've it in me to play the role of who gets to live andwho doesn't.
Flipping the switch is an indirect action, while pushing the large worker is a very direct action. I'd feel less guilty about flipping a switch than pushing someone to their death.
I think it is moral to save the most lives possible.
By not pushing the man or flipping the switch, I have not personally caused the death of anyone.
I felt like I needed to minimize the casualties, so I couldn't let the train run over the group of people. Flipping the switch seemed a little more moral and acceptable than pushing the man - I felt like I wasn't as directly responsible for his death.
I would not push the larger man because then I would be directly responsible for his death. I think it would be better to let whatever is going to happen happen than to kill someone. The other option, flipping the switch, is a little better since you ar not directly killing someone. I still think if I did that I would be responsible for the man's death though. I would like to think that I would be able to divert the car towards one person rather than three but I know I would not be able to do anythingthat would cause someone's death, even if it meant letting others die.
The good of the many outweigh the needs of the few or the one. To take no action would be the greatest sin.
I am glad I don't work on boxcars better yet I'm glad I don't hang out on train tracks. But I would pulk the switch because if I don't, then it will kill 3 men but if I do I only kill one. So essentially, I would be saving 2 lives.. that's just wrong to ush the fat guy from the platform. I would be in murderer.
I didn't want to push the man because that's actively choosing to kill someone, whereas flipping the switch makes you sorta a bit less responsibly for the one man's death
I made the choice to not directly kill the man but to save other's lievs
I could not ever do anything to cause the death of another innocent human, My intervention would have caused me to make a life and death decision and I dont have that right. I dont have the right to choose who lives or dies.. Fate has the choice.
Pushing the man has the best chance of saving 5 lives, with only a chance of one dying in the process. Flipping the switch would certainly kill one man, which I couldn't do.
I feel more moral if no one sees me "flip" the switch. I feel that I would also risk the chance of dieing if I tried to push a man.
Both choices were very difficult to pick because I would feel like a murderer. I chose the switch because it felt less direct than actually pushing a man to his death. I understand the greater good of saving more people but this was a hard decision.
I am a buddhist and I live by the belief of not effecting harm on anyone or anything. I would not be able to live with myself acting, even if for the greater good. These were outside forces that we endangering these people and nothing I brought on- it mus play out as the universe deals it.
Because If I push the man out the way than no one will get hurt or killed.
With every decision causing someone to die, I'd prefer to do nothing and not have my decision that killed someone on my mind.
I made my decision based on number of people saved.
If I flip the switch, less people will end up dying. The big guy would die, but those 3 peole would have time to escape, and by me flipping d switch, i save 3 people, but unfortunately kill 1. thats my reasoning.
If I pushed the man, I would be directly responsible for killing another human being. If I flipped the switch, I would be directly responsible for killing another human being. If I did nothing, I would not be directly responsible for killing anyone, as y actions had nothing to do with the chain of events already set in place. Further, the large man had the option of taking his own life by jumping onto the tracks if he so chose. If he did so, at least five workers would be saved, but that is his choiceto make, not mine.
I think its better to do something if you can. You can not do anything or you can think of the best situation and try that. To me its not a huge moral issue because whatever happens, happens.
I could not actively push someone but I could flip a switch and same more lives.
It would be an act of violence if I pushed the man. Plus it's not a guarentee that he will fall since he's so big. If I don't do either, it would be a significant loss of 8 men. I'm left to flip the switch
purposely killing the fat man would be wrong. the end does not justify the means. switching tracks is acceptable because only one man would be killed instead of three and you are not pushing someone to his death, just switching tracks
This is an impossible decision to make. I definitely couldn't purpose kill another man to save 5 and I couldn't ever make a decision on track B. So I chose to do nothing.
If you can save anyone, you would choose to save as many as you can.
Either way I would be deciding to kill someone. I can't make that choice. I would do neither but would instead try screaming to warn the workers. Or, try running to get close enough for them to hear me. I would not deliberately choose to kill someone, thogh. Each life has meaning and worth and I couldn't take someone's life just like that.
That's awful that you can't decide that flipping the switch and pushing the man are both very moral. I wanted to save the most people I could... it still made me feel awful, though. :/
I couldn't see myself physically being able to push a large man to where he would be able to block the car from hitting the 5 guys, and also, because of the thought that I would have to make actual contact with the guy, intending to harm him- this bothere me. I would feel like I killed him somehow, whereas, to flip the switch may cause the death of one man to save 3 others, it would be the car that hits him and not me pushing him that would cause his death. Both of these are impossible situations that Iwould hope to never find myself in because either way, I would have helped cause the deaths of some people.
I WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO STAND AND DO NOTHING, AND BECAUSE I WOULD PUT MYSELF IN RISK BY PHYSICALLY PUSHING SOMEONE (WHAT IF I FAILED?), I WOULD CHOOSE THE SWITCH.
It sucks that one person will die if I flip the switch but it saved three workers so I think it's a great choice.
After looking at the scenarios neither option seemed to be a moral one aside from not doing either one. I am a moral person and did not think that either option best represented my views.
Pushing the large worker off the bridge seems wrong because I would be over riding his free will to live. His death would be a direct cause of my actions. The workers getting hit by the run away cars is not directly my fault. Flipping the switch also i not completely moral because I would be causing the death of one worker, but it's not as direct a cause as pushing someone off a bridge.
By flipping the switch I save some people at least. It is an incredibly hard decision, but I couldn't push a man in front of a train, even if it saved others.
I chose to do neither because I cannot justify killing one innocent person to save others.
I am not comfortable with taking an action that would make someone die, even if it meant other lives were potentially saved. It would even be difficult to have to kill one person to save all the rest of humanity.
I wanted to save three lives.. I guess it all sucks... horrible scenario.
I feel like pushing the man will save the most lives which is probably the best way to go, even if it is unfair to the others.
I wouldnt do either choice because I wouldnt sacrifice someone to save other people. I don't believe that is for me to decide.
I would never intentionally try to sacrifice somebody else. That is not my place, I am not the person who should be in charge of who lives and who dies.
I wanted to kill the least amount of people.
I made the choice where the least amount of people would be killed.
I don't feel that I should play God and choose who lives and who dies. I believe there would be other options, like yelling to the men to move, praying, etc.
Flipping the switch is almost like just pushing someone to be killed instead of others, since you controlled the situation. Pushing a man is just a more brutal and direct way of doing it, so I won't do either. Doing neither, I will not be guilty of killin nor be guilty of not saving, and I will be fine with that. I will not take a life to save some lives if that is the only way of doing it. I will let nature take its course.
If I push the man that would be deliberate murder. If I flip the switch, while the five men still could die, but you don't know. One could try to be the hero of the four and save them. If you do neither, the large man would be not have to be die; howevr, the other five may have to die if they are unable to escape. However, they may even think of something to do in a short period of time. Not all may die.
I don't think I could in good conscience hurt another person on purpose even to save others. It is just not in me. Therefore deliberately pushing someone directly into the path of a train even to save 5 people was not an option. Flipping the switch would ot be as personal as pushing someone but would still alter the outcome and would mean I was directly responsible for the death of that person so I shied away from that option. I chose to do nothing and let fate take its course. If one of the options was t throw myself in the path of the train to save 5 people then I probably would have chose that one. I could live with self sacrifice but not hurting another.
Best action is no action in this case. Besides opening myself to tremendous liability should I redirect a box car, I am also effectively choosing lifes over another as if I had any idea which would be better for the men (maybe the soon dead workers had teminal cancer). No reason to presuppose 3 lives are worth more than one.
I'm not a god. It's not my place to make a decision like that. So what if there is more deaths, that's not for me to decide. I would feel horrible if I did either of the options, and I'm sure even if I saved lives people would look down upon me for actingin a way that killed somebody. The legal issues make it even more of a problem.
I don't think one person should have the power to say whether another person person should die.
I think that saving some is better than doing nothing.
Because I was trying to save the most people. I would definately try to do something to help the most i could.
Decided to let things play out as they may and not choose who to die
Immade a choice of utility based on the given information. I did the most good I could.
If I flip the switch it would help the most people.
I believe it is immoral to perform either action. I feel that while it might be a tragedy for those 8 individuals to be killed, it would have been an accident. If I jump in and perform either action or both actions I would be personally responsible for th death of the other individual's. By not doing anything, I would not be put in the position of having to make a value judgement of whose lives are more valuable. Now, if I had an option that imperiled only myself and not others in an effort to save the oters lives, then it would be moral to do so.
The page would not allow me to make the choices I wanted. I wanted "1" for both pushing the man and flipping the switch, and the largest number, whatever that was, as most moral for doing nothing. The page only let choose 1 for pushing and 2 for switch orvice versa but, again, I wanted 1 for each of those. It is never moral to kill another human being.
Doing nothing would result in 3 people being killed. I could never push someone to their death. Flipping the switch seemed most logical though it would also result in killing someone.
More people's lives' would be spared if I pushed the man instead of pulling the switch
I'd rather sacrifice one life to save three instead of sacrifice three to save one.
I would not want to sacrifice the life of any man for the sake of saving others without their consent. I would attempt to signal and yell at the workers to prevent any casualties but if accidents happen, then there is nothing I can do to stop it without scrificing another person unjustifiably.
there are no certian outcomes and I will not try to change them anyway
If I push the man or flip the switch I would be responsible for killing someone. If I do nothing, there will be a terrible tragedy, but I won;t be responsible for it.
I had a choice to save five men or three men but either was I killed a man. Doing nothing would kill 8 men so I chose to save the most men.
If I did nothing, then eight workers would of been killed. In the end, I felt that if I pushed the man, one life being taken is better than 5 lives being taken.
Killing a man who is not posing a threat to others isn't moral, so I wouldn't choose to sacrifice his life for the five others. Since I could save the three men without doing anything immoral, I would flip the switch.
I don't think I could make that decision, one of life and death about these men. I would let the situation resolve itself and hope that the men could somehow escape.
I didn't want to make that choice. Who am I to choose who live or dies.
I do not think it's right to decide someone else's death just because it minimizes overall deaths.
It just seemed really wrong to push a man in front of a train.
All choices are pretty much horrible in my opinion. If I had to choose, I would try to save as many people as I can. That's why I picked the first option.
Because I considered what is moral, being if someone innocent was hurt and how many was hurt.
I made my choice that I had to do something because I could save a life. To not save anybody would have been inmoral. I chose to flip the switch beccause doing so prevented me from having to phyically have to push a man onto the tracks. Hitting the switchwas less stressful in resolving the events. I would not want to push somebody in front of a train.
Regardless of the certainty of the outcomes, it is unconscionable to commit any act that would ensure the termination of the life/lives of another human being/other human beings. While doing nothing would not get in the way of ensuring the termination ofthe lives of all of the workers involved, it lacks any direct or indirect involvement with the CAUSE of the termination of said lives (if nothing is done, it cannot cause anything). To consciously choose to do nothing, in this case, is to consciously chose to not commit an act that would ensure the termination of another human life/other human lives. Due to these facts, I would consider this choice to be very moral, relative to the other choices available. As for the other choices, I find them to rangefrom 'not moral' to 'somewhat moral'. Pulling the switch would be an action that would indirectly ensure the termination of a human life. However, the life that would be terminated would not be directly used to prevent the termination of the lives of th other workers. Assuming the action would have been done ONLY to PREVENT the termination of the lives of the workers involved, I would consider it somewhat moral, yet still unacceptable. Pushing a worker in front of a box car would be an action that wold directly ensure the termination of a human life. Even considering that the action would have been done to save the lives of the other workers, I still find it to be immoral, as the worker would be directly used to prevent the termination of the lives f the other workers, which is not excusable, nor acceptable.
I hated to make this choice. I'm not one to take a human life. I picked this choice to save as many people as possible.
I suppose that I broke it into a math equation. So I decided on the option which allowed the most workers to live. (I'm pretty sure.)
The most moral choice would be to use myself, not the large man. But I know I couldn't bring myself to do that. I would just let what would happen if I were not there.
Killing someone is bad in my book. If all of the men are strangers, the amount of them in danger will not affect my outcome. How am I supposed to know if the fat guy isn't the "good-est" of them all? If I push him, I could effectively be killing th eonly ood one of the bunch and letting a bunch of hellions stay alive. More succinctly, who am I to determine the value of one life? Truly, one good life may be worth more than 5 bad lives. With no information on the people, I will leave fate to its course.
I felt the need to do something and mathematically pushing the guy in front of the train cars saved the most people. However doing nothing could be argued as taking the moral high ground because I wouldn't be directly responsible for anyone's death.
It's hard to answer this. I suppose if this happened, in a split-second decision, without time to think about the fact that I would be directly responsible for one man's death, I might make a different decision. But since this is theoretical, I have to sa that I just don't have the right to decide to take one man's life. It must be God's decision.
I'm not going to kill people just to save other people; how jacked up is that??
I hate this example with a fiery burning passion. Philosophy that is made up by examples with absolute, set consequences by design bias you into preferring a utilitarian ethic. If consequences were 100% guaranteed, I suppose I would grudgingly say that kiling 1 to save 3-5 people is preferable. However, I don't believe that consequences in the real world are ever that clear cut, and are in fact often the opposite. In real life, you don't know if pushing the fat man will save the five workers, or if the trin will just end up killing him plus the five further down the tracks, in which case you've just killed an extra person because you were trying to predict the future. Because I prefer a deontological ethic, I selected the option to do nothing, since that etter reflects what I would do in real life. However, I protest at both the unrealistic situation and the lack of originality of your examples.
Pushing the man treats him as an object (although it would save the greater number of other people.) Also it requires me to soil my hands more directly, as it were.
I didn't think it was acceptable to kill the people who wouldn't have otherwise been in harm's way to save the others. Not saving them is not a "good" choice, but I don't feel like I could have performed the other actions.
i wouldnt push anybody it moraly wrong so i choose flip the switch i feel that is the right thing too do
This choice leaves the least amount of people dead.
I did it simply to save the most lives possible, but I really don't like the idea of doing it by putting someone else who wasn't in harms way in harms way.
I believe it is not my call to decides who lives and who doesn't. This situation is difficult and controversial for moral and reasonable human being to settle. Somebody's weight shouldn't be a factor in deciding whether his life is less important. Though ifficult, based on the given choices, I feel more comfortable doing nothing.
I don't think i should cause physical harm to another person in order to save people. Flipping the switch was a very tough choice for me, but in the end I thought it would be better to have 1 dead vs 3 dead. Still a tough decision and I can't really decde exactly how moral of a choice that was.
Although only one man would die in order to save the others, I still would not feel right knowing that I intentionally killed someone in order to save more lives. I think it would be more immoral to intentionally take someone's life than "allow" 3 or 5 peple to be killed. I chose to do nothing and allow what is going to happen to happen.
Even though pushing the man in the way of the train saves the most people, I would not be able to bring myself to directly push someone into their death. To me it feels morally different from pulling a switch. The man's last thoughts would be confusion an terror, wondering why another human being was basically killing him. Pulling the switch still saves 3 people and I wouldn't feel as responsible for the death of the other.
It is not up to me to decide who or how many people die. The moral thing to do is nothing, let nature take it's course, and not risk homicide charges.
I chose not to do either because I don't think that I have the right to decide who dies and who lives.
I don't believe in killing, no matter what the reason for it. If someone in these different scenario situations has to die, it will not be because I did anything to cause it.
Because both choices would result in someone getting killed, I chose to do nothing. I would feel horribly guilty to have anyone die because of an action I took. Although choosing to do nothing is not the greatest choice either, as I would feel as if I jus stood by and watched people die without trying to intervene. There are no good choices here.
I would not push the man to his death because I think they all have a good chance of jumping out of the way. They are trained workers and know things we do not know about saftey and how to handle these types of situations. I would never flip a switch ona train track. I don't have any business there, and I would not put myself in this situation.
It's not my role to play God and try to decide who dies and who lives. If I actively flip a switch or push a man to his death, then I would be responsible for killing someone. If I do nothing then it is the boxcar that killed one or more men, not me. I thnk it would be better to find a way for no one to get killed.
Who am I to choose who dies and who lives? I'm not God. It's too difficult to choose to NOT do something, too.
The current situation is one that started without any of my actions. Utilitarian ethics say I should push the large man off to save the most people. I personally would view that as killing a person and that would be my responsibility. I would save morepeople, but it is not my place to choose who lives or dies.
because no need of a bunch of people dying if i save 1 person and three die iw would rather save more people
I feel it is not my choice as to who lives and who dies. I think too much in most situations and I am usually unsure until I make the choice. So not dong anything would be better for me because It is out of my hands. What happens will happen and I shouldn be the one to decide such a fate.
How can I place a value on a particular person ? I don't know any of them. How do I choose who lives and dies. Is it a matter of numbers only ? Tragedies happen and I would hope that I could prevent them but not by choosing an alternate tragedy and loss o life for someone else.
It seems that the least amount of people to die would be the best option.
Doing nothing would result in three people dying rather than one. I could not just stand there and let three people die.
It is too hard of a decision to make. Unless I was actually in that situation I don't know what I would do.
I couldn't actively knock someone into the path of a train. I would feel slightly less responsible if I just flipped the switch. I would also feel bad if I did nothing at all and all 8 died.
I didn't think it was fair to kill anybody, especially intentionally.
I don't see how I have any right to decide that someone should die to save some other people.
One death is better than many deaths, so this choice was the "lesser of the evils." I did not want to make a choice, but felt I had to.
Pushing the man would actively kill him, while the switch method would just be choosing who was unlucky.
I made my choice to push the man because that would result in the least deaths.
my actions would kill someone but my inactions would result in the deaths of more people. Like Spok said...the needs of the many outweight the needs of the few.
This is a tough decision because if you choose any of the options, you are essentially then responsible for another's death directly.
I felt that it would be cruel to directly cause the death of someone else, pushing the switch seemed like it was not as bad.
8 dead v. 6 dead v. 4 dead; I chose the 4 dead option
If I push the man, only 4 people die. If I flip the switch, 6 people die. If I do nothing, 8 people die. However, pushing the man does not seem permissible, whereas flipping the switch does.
I don't handle stress well so I would have most likely stood by and watch in shock.
i don't want to be personally responsible for the death of anyone, i will hyave to deal with the trauma of not doing either, but not the trauma of willingly killing someone to save other people.
we have a population problem and I am in favor of letting more people die than fewer. plus if I take action then it is my direct action that would end lives. I choose not to act because if I wasnt there then the end result would be the same.
If I had to choose one of the choices I would have chosen to flip the switch. That option seems less "personal" as opposed to actually laying my hands on the individual and pushing him in front of the boxcar. Either way I would feel extreme guilt and b ashamed for my actions....either for saving more lives at the expense of one or just looking on when I could possibly help.
I don't think it is moral to cause someone's death or injury, even if it might save others. I don't know for certain if it would play out as planned, in which case I might kill even more people. I am not obliged to save anyone, and I won't flip the switchto kill someone else, by the same logic as I won't push the man.
It saved the most people, even if at the expense of one, and it seemed wrong to do nothing
I felt the workers should be more responsible, I don't see why I should have to decide their fate.
i made my choice based on some of the information,and a little on the dots
It's hard to make these kind of choices. I decided to save three by flipping a switch. I guess I viewed it as the lesser of evils.
I will not push a man to his death, no matter how many lives it could save. But diverting Boxcar B away from three people is less reprehensible in my mind than pushing a man into the path of the train.
Neither choice was pleasant but physically pushing a man in front of a train I don't think I could do. Flipping a switch I might be able to live with.
I made the choice that removes me from the situation of choosing to kill someone. While it's bad that more people die I believe it's a better option than me making the choice to kill someone as a sacrifice.
saving 3 men is better than saving one and besides as i am flipping the switch i am yelling and alerting the single man to his danger. easier for 1 man to get out of the way than 3
I have no right to harm someone to save another.
While there is a problem with any of the choices, I would feel bad about my actions to do something killing someone. I understand that my actions to NOT do something kill more people. But somehow it feels worse to specifically do something and kill someon. It is really the same either way and I know that it is better for less people to die, but choosing who dies still feels wrong.
The only option where you are not directly responsible for someones death is to do nothing. Choosing to push a man in front of the boxcar is not moral as you are deciding he needs to die. Flipping the switch is more moral than pushing the man because you re saving more people without injuring an innocent bystander.
I wouldn't feel great about taking someone's life into my hands to save others - it's not really my place to sacrifice people like that. I would probably just let nature take its course in both cases.
Loss of one to save many concept. Though it took a fair amount of thought for me to get to that point.
Pushing the man would save most lives. Although he would die 5 other lives would be sparred. I suppose in a situation like that you have to choose the lesser evil. Or you can do nothing and let 'fate' decide who lives and who dies.
On one hand, I would have to live with the face that I pushed someone to die, that would be my fault, the other I flipped a switch and killed someone, which again, would be my fault. If I did nothing, then it wouldn't be my fault no matter how unfortunatethe out come, I just couln't make a choice to kill anyone.
Well, I figured I could save more people that way (by pushing the man). I can see the temptation to do the other one, because I wouldn't feel so directly responsible for someone's death, but for all intents and purposes I would be. Therefore, I decided o save more people.
I chose to push the man and save five people. Doing nothing would have been my first choice, but the wording of the question made it seem as thought it was not a valid action. I know none of the people involved or their circumstances. On paper it may not e the most moral, but in reality I do not have the right to take a mans life - even if it is to save many. I chose to push the one man, only because if I am required to act, I might as well chose the one that saves the larger number of people.
It's not up to me to play God, whatever happens is Gods choice not mine.
Chose the option that would save the most men.
I had to look out for the greater cause...the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.
Flipping the switch is less horrible than pushing someone intentionally in front of the boxcar. By doing this you save 3 people, but you still played a role in deciding who would be killed so none of the options are good. I wouldn't feel good about makingany of these choices, but doing nothing would result in a lot more deaths.
The most moral behavior is saving the most people possible.
There is no right choice here. But this is also an unrealistic situation. Were one to find themselves facing such a dilemma, I suspect the person would not be able to know for 100% sure that their inaction would cause someone to die, while it is easier o be aware that your actions can kill someone else. Thus I would suspect I would do neither and hope I was wrong in my assessment. Otherwise I am actively killing someone in a, to me, unknown situation, regardless of the stipulations set by the 'mind exeriment.' But I can understand why others might be proactive.
I would like to have the reaction time to do one or the other, but I know myself and I answered honestly. I believe I would be too stressed out by the situation to move and as a result would not end up doing either of the choices.
I can't justify killing another person under any circumstances. Even if it would save multiple lives. Not doing anything doesn't seem particulary moral or immoral either way, so I checked in the middle of that box.
I feel pushing the man would be more immorrial then flipping the switch. I think not doing anything is neither moral or immoral as you are just letting the events take course.
I made the choice that I thought was best for all those invovled.
It's not really my fault if those people were going to die and I had to cause others to die to save them. I don't have that power.
They have their own minds, surely these individuals can get out of harms way. Otherwise, I'm not making myself an accessory to the cause of their death.
I think that I wouldn't do anything because then I wasn't the reason why someone (innocent) lost their life. Pushing the man would mean I'm directly choosing to kill him, while flipping the switch means that I indirectly chose to kill an innocent person a well.
I feel that pushing the guy is much more macabre than simply flipping the switch. Not doing anything is not changing the course of what was going to happen, so it's not completely immoral, but is worse than doing something.
How is it my right to decide who lives and who dies. The two men who are not in harms way got the golden ticket. I am agnostic, but still I don't feel I have a right to "play God".
Flipping a switch is saving three people to kill one, which is a good act. Throwing the man down in the track is the same thing, except your're doing the killing yourself, so its less moral than the switch. Doing nothing is allowing the most people to dieso is the least moral choice.
By pushing the man, 4 people would die: the man I push and the three people from not flipping the switch. If I flip the switch, the 5 workers die from not pushing the man and the one on the side track so I save the most lives by pushing the man.
If I do either action I would probably be sued by the injured person (s) family. Sometimes you have to let natural consequences happen.
In either of the other two senarios you would have to choose to kill someone
THE NEEDS OF THE MANY OUTWEIGH THE NEED OF THE FEW.
I did not do either because I do not want to be part of it, even though I was probably already part of it since I am witnessing it, I guess I did not have time to react.
Killing people and watching people die a very painful but not the same. To take action I would be actually picking someone to die and be the action taker.
Saving the most lives, without physically pushing some on the track.
I really hate making choices like this. But if i push the man thats me pretty much killing someone. If i flip the switch then i can just say i tried to do something that saved lives.
This is choosing be best outcome of only terrible outcomes. If you push the large guy in the way you are actively murdering him since he was not in harms way before. If you flip the switch you lower the number of deaths of people who were in harms way.
If I have time to run over to the switch, or up the platform to push a guy off, then everyone has time to dive out of the way. There's no getting out of the situation with a clear conscience, one can only try to minimize damage. Who's to say the workers o the track aren't a prison chain gang of murderers and child molesters? It's not a perfect analogy, but it echoes dilemmas that people face in real life. My takeaway is that I probably should not be so quick to judge other people's decisions.
Because pushing someone to there death on purpose no matter how many lives are saved is immoral.
Intervening with fate and selecting a man to kill to save a few more did not seem like it was my moral right. I would not have wanted the situation reveresed.
I cannot physically kill someone. Therefore, if I did either A or B, I would have been the one to make a decision and kill someone. By doing neither, I didn't physically kill anyone.
I did not do either because I was afraid that If I bush the man or flip the switch I would be sued for murder.
I wanted to be able to save somebody, and flipping the switch was a much more indirect way of doing this than pushing the man, which would feel really wrong.
Because that was the most logical choice.I would not have let the happen other situation.
I went with my gut instinct. Obese people have a lower life expectancy anyways.
Letting more people die than necessary is immoral but so is sacrificing a life to save others. I feel that my decision is the lesser of two evils.
Flippng a switch would save people but I wouldn't directly be pushing someone into a train.
It is not up to me to decide who should live or die. I would not be able to do any of the options. I would, however, start praying while screaming for the 5 men to get out of the way.
If I push the man I would feel like I am killing him with my own hands, unlike flipping the switch. I know is still the same outcome, a man will die, but firts of all I don't feel like pushing the man, I mean I am not capable of doing so. I feel like I ca flip the switch but, anyway both situations are horrible.
I don't have the will to live with intentionally causing harm even if the ends justify the means.
I would flip the switch to the track with one man but also yell to him to get off the track.
I am not going to take responsibility for killing people by my actions, with flipping or pushing. I don't buy these scenarios and I never will. I believe I could come up with another better solution in this situation.
I would not be able to live with myself if I pushed someone onto the tracks to die (even if it were to save more people) and while flipping the switch is essentially the same option, it doesn't *feel* as awful.
The choice I made would save more lives.
I made my choice because I thought I should not have any part to do with any persons death. Pushing the guy on the tracks is murder and killing people is something I am against therefore I am against the switch. I had nothing do with the accident so I hve no moral responsibility to do anything, especially considering loss of life regardless of my choice
I wanted the fewest people to die, and the workmen knew the risk of their work - the person on the footbridge never entered into the risk.
flipping the switch seems less of a act of intentional murder because it doesn't require you to actually see the person to kill him.
I choose to not push the man because the men on the track know the risks of working there just as the man on the platform knows he is not in the path of the train.
The question is "does saving the life of many men justify the murder of one man." From a moral standpoint, in my opinion, it is better to remain inactive and err by omission then to attempt to choose "who deserves to die."
Your stuck between a rock and a hard place but I feel by flipping a switch is slightly better because I'm not intentionally pushing a man to his death. Even though I know by flipping the switch I will kill someone I still feel slightly better about it becuse of the physical disconnect.
Well, I've done this exercise before and I am always torn. I feel for the large group of people but also the other workers. In a real situation, I would probably be paralyzed and not make a decision in time. Because of this, I decided to do nothing.
The more lives saved, the better. I would definitely get backlash for essentially killing an innocent but at the same time i would know I saved 5 as well.
if you dont have other option then you cant consider it moreal or not
No matter what I did people died. Doing nothing was the most moral choice for me since I didn't cause their deaths with my actions.
Clearly no one should die but even more clear the least number of people killed is the best scenario.
I thought about flipping the switch to save three, but thought I'm still killing someone. Pushing the man def felt like killing someone. I know I would have saved lives, but not doing anything deaths would be caused by an object, doing something deaths wold have been caused directly by me.
I would flip a switch to save 3 lives instead of just 1. Not moral to have everyone killed. Not any easy decision went off of number of survivors.
I made the choice of B because it saved the most lives without deliberately killing anyone, although now that I've thought about it more, I might push the man instead since it saves two more lives and it's not like pushing someone is much different than fipping the switch. It's a tough call.
If I push the large men, I will end up saving 5 men compared to 3 If I were to flip the switch. Either is not a good choice, but it's the best one in this circumstance.
The scenario with the switch seems more justifiable because you aren't physically pushing someone. Five people will die if you don't push the man but you don't have to live with the fact that you physically pushed him. It's still wrong to flip a switch an kill someone but it somehow seems more justifiable.
Pushing the man saves the most amount of people.
i couldn't just stand there and watch four men die while I did nothing, but it would be just as hard to hit the switch, I would rather have one death on my conscious than four.
I think it would make me feel less guilty to flip a switch than actively push a man to death, even though I'm condemning a man to death in both circumstances. But it would be worse of all to do nothing and let a huge number of people die.
I could not deliberately kill a person by altering outcomes that nature put into play.
Depending on ethical principles you live by will determine your action. I don't think I have to follow my 'duty' like Kant says, and even though you could kill one and save additional to maximize pleasure or the hedonistic outcome - I don't think that's fr either. So I act out of egoism and do nothing.
If I was close enough to push the large man, then I am close enough to jump onto the tracks myself. This would ultimately be my choice. Since this was not an option. I chose to flip the switch, since I feel that it would be wrong to not do something to sve as many lives as possible.
This was a tough choice. Each one results in the death of another. Who is to say that one of those lives is less valuable than the other ones.
I would never sacrifice a life personally (via pushing the man) for another life or lives. By flipping the switch, it guarantees that 3 lives are saved vs. 1, yet there is still a chance however small that the 1 man that has Boxcar B en route survives.
pushing switch or not cannot save everyone
I feel that it is not my job to determine or alter fate. Either choice I make will be the wrong one. There is not a right choice in this situation so instead of altering fate I would rather sit back and let the events unfold.
I am an attorney. I know that their would likely be liability for acting. Therefore, I would not act.
I think in the time you ran to do either action you could have YELLED and ran towards their general direction to try and save everyone. But this was not a choice. I couldn't push someone physically to save other people, the switch seemed the most non-pesonal way to try and save some people.
If I pretend to not have noticed the impending doom, no one can blame me for anything. They will just accept the reality.
Flipping the switch would allow me to save three workers without having to phycially push somebody to their death. The switch is more indirect.
I am interested in saving the most lives. However, I am concerned about the legal implications if I were to push the man. So I will flip the switch.
because if i flip the switch it will be safer
I made made the choice to flip the switch because I don't think I would ever be able to physically kill another person, even if it meant several other people were going to be saved. Flipping the switch still causes one person to be killed but I didn't diectly cause(push) that person on to the track.
It's a disaster than can not be prevented, and flipping the switch would make the person's death my fault.
While I want to minimize how many people die because the runaway boxcars I was limited to either an action where I would actively murdering a man to save others (pushing him) or inactively murdering a man to save others. I could of done neither actions aswell. To minimize death I decided to inactively murder the one man by using a switch to save three others rather than actively murdering one man and inactively murdering two men to save three others.
I could not be directly responsible for killing someone. So even though flipping the switch or pushing the man is better, I couldnot bring myself to do it
I dont know what I would really choose. It is a tough situation. I wouldn't want to risk the life of anyone in either situation and I hope I am never in a situation like that, to have to make that decision.
Pushing the man would save the greatest number of people, which helped me make the final decision. It was not easy because knowing the one man who would have been fine had to be sacrificed was a difficult thing to deal with.
I just couldn't live with myself if I directly caused the death of someone, which I would do through action. More people die by my inaction, but it isn't directly my fault.
If I did nothing, it felt like just a bad accident in both cases because I couldn't prevent at least one person from being killed no matter what I did. However, if I took an action, then it felt like I was making the decision to kill someone so I took onmore responsibility for the deaths. Therefore, I chose to do nothing since I felt less culpable.
I think by not doing anything would be the biggest mistake especially since I can affect the outcome. If I went before a court, I could stand by my decision and not be charged with killing anyone.
I feel like knowingly ending someones life is very immoral, even if it will save others. By not doing anything I am removing myself from the situation and letting fate decide what happens to the other workers.
I'm pretty sure I wouldn't do anything. I'm very sure I wouldn't be going into some detailed calculation about how many lives I'm saving with each individual action, with some kind of moral calculus. When its your time, its your time to go.
I would put myself in front of the car before I would harm another. I would sound an alarm, call someone, flag down the other workers that were on the track and try to flip the switch after they were out of danger. I would move a car in front of it or d something else. I think any other choices are better than what was given.
I figured that actively killing someone, as opposed to just shifting death, was less moral, and I was also deliberately using him as a means to an end, which fails the categorical imperative. And I couldn't do neither, because that would result in more inocent death, which, all life in this scenario being equal, does not produce maximum utility.
I was not left with many choices. None of the options given were very moral. I choose to push the man. I made this choice because the life of one man, is not nearly as bad as 5.
Saving several people in exchange for one life is absolutely the right yet difficult thing to do. If I did nothing I would feel worst of all forever.
I could not make a choice to knowingly kill anyone. I would try to yell for them to get out of the way.
Pushing the man is changing someone from "safe" to "not safe" and feels the worst to me. Flipping the switch does the same but you are not actively forcing someone into harm's way... Even though the scenario says that people WILL die in a given situation,it feels like the one guy on the tracks would have the best odds of getting out of the way. I can't not think about that even if the instructions tell me to.
This decision should be in Gods hands not mine.
Well, pushing a man in front of a track is terrible. Especially because you can't know the boxcar will be stopped. You can only assume. Flipping the switch is saying you value three mens live over one, but that one man might be great. You are still the peson doing something. If you do nothing in that situation, you can't be blamed as all choices are bad. Also, the workers should just get out of the way if I have enough time to go on a bridge and push someone over.
Well, either choice resulted in the death of one man so there wasn't really a great choice either way. I chose what I envisioned myself doing if I were ever in that scenario. I can't imagine myself ever physically pushing someone in front of a boxcar.
A choice had to be made, so I made that choice that would save the most people
If I do nothing either three or five men will be killed instead of one person. Also, flipping the switch doesn't involve the physical interaction with another person.
I believe that everything happens for a reason. My action would be predetermined no mattter what.
I didn't want to make a choice about who dies and who lives. That felt like I would be playing God, which I am not willing to do.
I made the choice to not do anything because I do not want to be responsible for purposely killing anyone.
I made my choice because it would save five men and kill just one. The more I can save the better I thought it would be rather than have so many die.
By pushing the man I feel I would be more directly responsible for his death.
It was difficult for me to choose to deliberately be responsible for the death of someone. I know intellectually that taking action that resulted in the death of less people would have been the "right" thing to do, but I just don't think I'd be capable o it.
The boxcars breaking loose was just something that happened and the people in their path just had bad luck. If I changed things by pushing someone or flipping a switch I would kill someone else.
It was the "lesser of two evils" in a sense. I believe morally there may not be a "right" choice in that decision, because ultimately you are still causing some sort of harm, but I feel that it was the best option available for the least amount of negativ impact.
Pushing the man off the platform would be just outright murder, and a court of law could very possibly agree to that. But to flip the switch to save the three, you could just plead ignorance to the fact that there was a single worker on the secondary trak.
I feel like I would just want to not be involved. If I made either choice, I would be helping someone and yet hurting someone else. The guilt of someone else's hurt would by lying at my doorstep and it would hurt me knowing that I chose the value of someoe's life over someone else's. I would feel like what's mean to happen will happen, and that is why I believe I would choose to remain uninvolved. Also, if I were to make either of these choices, there would be a chance that I could get hurt or killed mysef.
I think it's the right choice to save as many lives as possible. I don't see any moral flaw in that.
I do not think it is moral to play god in this situation and decide to kill one person rather than a larger number of others. Why? Because people are always playing god and deciding that I will be the sacrificial victim in workplaces, in family, in socialrelationships and in daily life generally. They decide this even though I protest continously. They decide this even though they often do not perceive themselves as destroying me but only in protecting themselves (apparently). They decide this based on soe bizarre idea that I have such an infinitely greater benefit in life than they do that they are permitted this selfishness. So why would I trust them, or myself, to make such decisions on a "benevolent" basis when they (or me) are not even acting selfishy. This is inappropriate.
We (men) are not incontrol of mens fate, so I am not going to kill another person just to save more peoples lives. That is not my call or choice to make, so I would perfer not to do anything because I should not be in control if other people die or live.
I made my choice to not do either because I am not one to place value on one persons life over many. I would feel bad with either choice. All I could and would do is to scream to the workers and pray that they made it off the tracks in time. If I was to pll the switch or push the man I would be taking a life. That is not my right to decide who is more worthy to live or die.
I don't believe it's right to sacrifice an innocent person even though it may save the lives of others so I wouldn't feel right pushing the innocent man or switching the train so another innocent person would be killed.
I am not God, and it isn't my decision to make as to who should die and not die.
The scenarios described are both freak accidents that were not caused by me. If I am to respond by one of the two options given to me, someone will die at my hands because of a choice I made. In these cases, yes, men might get killed; but its not becaus of something that I caused to happen.
If I push the man in front of car A, then six people will be saved (the 5 on track A, plus the one guy on the branch of track B) and four people will die (the fat man, plus the 3 people on track B). If I flip the switch, 4 people will be saved (the 3 on tack B, plus the fat man) and 6 people will die (the 5 on track A, plus the guy on the branch of B). If I do nothing, 2 people (fat guy plus man on branch of track B) will survive and 8 will die. To save the greatest number of people I have to push the manonto the tracks.
By pushing the large man onto the tracks I would save five lives instead of three, I wanted to save as many lives as I could.
While it would be good to save multiple lives, I don't think it is right to kill someone just to save others. "Heroes" get congratulated for such actions: choosing to get hurt themselves to save others. The key here is that the hero HIMSELF chooses what t do. Not a bystander. I see myself as a bystander in this scenario.
although it may not save everyone, flipping the switch would be the quickest thing to do
I would push the man because this action would save the most people. Either way, I would basically be directly killing one man, by either pushing the first, or causing the boxcar to hit the other, but if I did nothing, nine people would be killed. What a ilemma.
How can you choose between one life and several lives? I just chose one, but they're both terrible options to me.
I decided I could save more lives if I flipped the switch.
Reguardless if I push the bigger man or flip the switch I am ultimately making the choice of someone faith and in each case is going to result in someone life. Should I have the power to decide someons fate. Option one seem like I would save more lifes, bt the action involved in pushing someone is hard to swallow. The act is to direct. As to flipping a switch, you not actually push someone to the death ... but in a way you are. It is just making me more confortible with the action becuase it is one a swith. Still the same thing ultimatly. Option3 is someone justifiable becuase you not resposible for someone death but inturn you did not do anything either. I feel I would have to do something and could not just do anything.
I couldn't bring myself to push the poor guy. The switch I felt removed my direct involvement in the situation (though really it doesn't).
I wanted to do the most benefit, and while killing the man would be bad, I'd save the lives of 5 people by doing so, resulting in a net gain of 4 lives.
Pushing the man is an active action to kill him, so I think it's immoral. Although it would save five people, I would be directly responsible for killing the large man, rather than being a bystander. Flipping the switch seems more passive, and it saves thee people versus one.
I chose to flip the switch rather than push the man as if I push the man I will feel that I killed someone by my own hands but if I flip the switch I will feel that I rescued the 3 other workers without directly being involved in killing a person.
Pushing the man would be killing the man. May be it would save others, but who am I to decide who should live or die. The other choice is an easy choice as it hurts nobody.
I would try to find some other option. I do not want to push anyone into certain death, but I also do not want to do the same by flipping a switch.
I do not have the power to do anything that affects the death of anyone
If I had to live with the guilt of one persons death, may as well let happen what is to happen. Not up to me to decide who should live or die.
I would have to commit murder to save the three men. I could not do that.
Because both A and B involve you causing someone's death. The only moral option in my opinion is to do nothing and let fate play out.
People are going to die either way, and while each of the actions would mean fewer people would be killed, it's not my place to choose to sacrifice their lives. They would have to make that choice for themselves.
The good of the many outweighs the good of the few. To sacrifice the few to save the many is a basic moral tenet.
i think it would not be right to kill another man in order to save other. one moral decision makes the other immoral
It is not moral to kill anyone, but when more lives are at stake, then it is the only choice left.
Flipping the switch seems like more of an indirect way of handling the situation.
Flipping the switch deliberately tries to avoid one bad outcome through a neutral action. Doing nothing causes the most harm. Deliberately pushing the man over is immoral as you are performing an action intending to kill him.
If I were to do either choice, I would end up killing someone, but if I chose to do neither option, I wouldn't be the one responsible for anyone's death.
Pushing the switch is easier and does not result in me using physical force on someone. Pushing the man would be justifiable but the physical force involved makes it feel a little less right. Doing nothing is justifiable but not best from an objective, sttistical standpoint of lives saved.
Well, pushing the man would have saved the most lives, but he was the only opne not in danger in the first place, so it didn't feel quite right doing that to him. The others were all in danger from the beginning by being on the tracks, so I decided to fli the switch and have the 1 worker be killed instead of the 3. I guess it's not perfect logic though, as one could say the lone worker was not in danger because he was working on a track that was switched off, so... I'm not sure. It's what felt most right.
I personally feel that sacrificing the life of one in exchange for the lives of three is an adequate trade off; I feel the same about the other scenario but I don't think I would have the courage to actually push another person to his death even if it ment saving the others' lives.
I made my choice based on having the largest amount of people live. If you can't save everyone, you might as well try to save as many as possible
If you push the man, you will save 9 other people. Only one person will die. If you do nothing, more people will die. If you flip the switch, you will save 8 people and only one will die. I chose to save the most lives.
I felt that flipping a switch wasnt as bad as actually pushing a man to his death. I felt that pushing the man is like killing him myself while flipping the switch even though will lead to one man being killed it wasnt with my own hands that i killed him.
I know that this would be a hard choice to make and execute, but I believe the guilt I burden would be far less if I save five lives rather than watching people die and do nothing or saving three people's lives.
It would be better to save as many people as I can.
Neither of the choices were ideal because lives are at stake. But it's better to save multiple people as opposed to just one person.
It would be horrible to let others die when just one can. I decided to do that even though it is a horrible thing to do.
none of these choices are good, moral, or ideal. i chose what I though I could live with.
I chose to do nothing. I chose this because I do not believe one life is more important then another. I did not want to be responsible for killing one to save another.
If you flip the switch it's easier to say you didn't see the other person and save the others. Intentionally pushing and essentially killing someone to save others doesn't justfify the means in my book. Doing nothing makes you equally guilty. It's a loe lose situation, and doing something is better than nothing. Flipping the switch in my eyes makes you a lot less guilty than shoving someone.
Interfering to save people's lives at the expense of other people isn't something I'm comfortable with or think it's moral. What right do I have to hurt or kill another person even if it saves more lives. I don't believe that it's mine or anyone else's hoice to sacrifice the lives of others no matter the cost.
I think it was the best option to save the most amount of people as possible.
It's as simple as saving 1 life vs. 3 lives.
I think that if I intentionally did something to kill others, even if it was to sacrifice other people that that is not a moral thing to do, or at least less moral than doing nothing intentionally.
I made the decision because it would save more lives. Of course in real life I don't know what I would do; I might be too scared to move.
Flipping the switch is a less personal way to kill a person to save others.
The switch saves a lot of people. In my mind, I can still somehow figure out how to save the other guy too.
They are all tought choices and but I had to choose the most beneficial.
I couldn't bring myself to pushing a guy and causing him to die.
If i flip the switch, i will save the other people.
To me, doing nothing is the least moral option, and if I'm certain I want to save the maximum amount of lives, I would choose to save the group of five workmen by sacrificing one. It's unfortunate for the guy I push, and the three workmen on the other trak I can't save, but 6 people live and 4 people die instead of 8 people dying and 2 people living.
I tried to rationalize what I could do the quickest and what would cause the least amount of deaths.
First, I wouldn't physically kill a man just to save others because it would haunt my conscience that I killed someone and it is immoral. Similarly, the second scenario is bad because you know fully that you are sending a boxcar at a helpless person becaue of your actions to save three people. Because I wasn't the reason the two boxcars went careening out of control, by doing nothing I don't have to perform an action that would kill someone because of ME.
No matter what blood is on my hands. If I did nothing it would be easier to explain myself that way.
I don't think any of the situations are moral. One person shouldn't be the cause of a single individual's death or another. They shouldn't get to make that choice. I think the best thing to do would try to call out to them. I certainly think shoving a manonto the tracks is a lot more gruesome than flipping a switch because you are literally manipulating the person that way. If he is that large, chances are you couldn't push him anyway. I guess I chose to flip the switch to try and save some lives while atempting to be the most moral, but none of these choices are moral as I said.
I think the situation is a lose-lose. Either way, someone is going to die. Yet, I would not want to be the person "responsible" for someone's death, even if it results in a smaller number of people dying. If I do nothing, then I am not responsible but f I take an action, I become part of the situation and bear some responsibility.
Because the way things are set up, it seems like the best possible choice at the moment.
I do not want to chose who lives and who dies. I'm not going to sacrifice a life that isn't mine to sacrifice just to save other lives. I don't believe any life is more valuable that anyone else's, so I chose not to do anything in this situation.
I think the fact that only one person dies over multiple people is better. Any decision you make really is unmoral but I chose the decision where less people would die. I feel like pushing the man on the tracks would be very unmoral compared to flipping te switch.
it is not my concern if these people die, I am not going to be apart of it and these people can move out of the way if they really wanted to live.
I am not directly responsible for the cause of death if I make no decision. If I make a decision I am responsible for killing someone. If I make no decision, at worst I am responsible for not preventing death.
It resulted in the least amount of fatalities
I couldn't push the man, that would just be too horrible. I'm more motivated to flip the switch because of the 5 men who've already died on the other track. If it were just the three, I'd be less inclined to intervene.
It was stated that no matter what I had to make a choice. The opporturity cost was lower when choosing to push the man, and thats why i chose that.
I would want to do what would save the most lives objectively, but were I truly presented with this situation, I don't know that I could kill one person to save others. But I also feel that not trying anything is just as bad. Being indifferent means eightpeople die. That is really quite a question.
I feel indifferent between all three choices, though I would likely flip the switch. It's more detached than pushing the man. That would somehow make me feel less guilty.
i think sacrificing one for five is a good thing to do.
Even though an outcome seems inevitable there is always a chance for a last minute miracle. I myself would not want to have murdered someone. I believe what is, is what is, you can intervene if it does no harm but if intervention means death to some but nt all it is not good intervention
Well, if I'm a worker too, I suppose we may have understood what it was we signed up for and how to handle such situations. We're all responsible both for what we do and for what we didn't do. With that being said the large worker was not in harm's way sothrowing him in the path would be out of the question. As for the switch, flipping it is wrong. Not flipping it when you could've is also wrong. I chose the option there that saved more lives.
I'd really hate to do nothing, so I just did SOMETHING to make the situtation turn out better for all involved. The only immoral desicion is not helping anyone.
Pushing is a more aggressive action toward an innocent person. A switch is hoping for the best.
If I flip the switch, two men will die, but eight will be saved. If I push the man, eight men will die and two will be saved. If I do nothing, four men will die and six will be saved.
From a legal standpoint, I think that either pushing the man in front of the train or flipping the switch would constitute as murder in some degree. So by doing nothing, I would not be legally prosecuted. Plus there is a big difference between actively kiling someone and passively letting someone die.
It is immoral to sacrifice another's life for some other group's life. It is not up to me to make decisions like that.
Well, I want to treat the situation as if I were not there. Fate has decided that those on the tracks will be hit and die, the workers who are out of harm's way are out of harms way, I don't think it's fair to sacrifice them just to save others, either wa I'd be murdering someone in a case where if I do nothing, I won't have murder on my hands, even though I have the opportunity to save by killing... it's a really tough decision but it seems to me like doing nothing is the best way to stay out of trouble nd stay out of the guilt of having killed someone directly
I wanted to do what I thought was more moral. I could never intentionally push someone.
It is called fate. It is not my decision to claim another life for whatever reason. If it is meant to be then so be it.
I don't believe in fate, but I simply would not want to intervene and be the cause of actions that led to someone's death, even if it saved more people in the long run.
I think it was the right thing to do considering the circumstances
I chose to flip the switch because I would save more lives than if I did nothing and I would not directly feel responsible for killing another person. I think if I pushed the man I would feel even more responsible for his death than just by flipping a swich. Doing neither would not be an option because more people would die in either scenerio if you did not act.
None of these choices are ideal. All of which end up killing people. It's not a question of morals. It's a question of determining who should live and who shouldn't which I don't feel I have the capacity to choose.
I can not kill another human to save three humans. So there was nothing I could do.
I'm pretty sure I would hesitate too long and then both parties would be killed. I'd like to say that I would push the man off the bridge to save the five people, but I would have a hard time intentionally killing someone. It would be likewise for me flpping the switch.
I would do nothing, because even though my inaction would make me unable to save those workers, choosing any of the others would make me an active participant in killing a man, which would essentially make me a murderer. It's not my right to say his life sn't worth as much as the others.
I feel that pushing the man would be too direct for me to do in order to save the other workers, but flipping a switch to save the lives of three workers at the cost of another worker feels less personal. Because of that, I can see myself taking that actin.
In each scenario their will be death no matter what. I chose to do nothing because nobody will have died because of a direct result of my actions; I am not choosing to kill.
Deliberately killing someone to save others goes against what I believe and doing nothing when I could have done something would sit on my conscience. Thus I would choose option B.
Ethically I'm not responsible for a situation that develops near me. However if I involve myself, then I'm making a moral choice and am involved in the situation, most likely to my detriment.
Doing either of the options would put blood on my owns hands and i'd be personally responsible for a death
I think the moral thing to do is sacrifice one individual to save three. Yet I would do nothing. I would be crippled with inaction in such a situation.
I don't think it's appropriate for an individual to decide the fate of innocent people. Let things play out.
I think that in my moment of hysteria I would want to help as many as I could instead of lettinga whole group of people die. I would automatically flip the switch so it kills one instead of three.
Flipping the switch is less personal. The goal is to save the largest amount of lives
I chose the option that would save the most people.
Actually pushing a person to their death, even if it would save 5 people seemed like something I would have trouble dealing with spiritually and emotionally. The switch really isn't much better, you are just killing someone by proxy, but the choice of dong nothing would result in the loss of 8 lives. So the switch was the only option I could consider.
I made my choice because if I did nothing, then no lives would be saved. I feel it would be wrong to push the man in front of the train just because he is big. That would be like using someone's size to save other people, and you can't kill someone just bcause they're fat. The only thing left is to flip the switch. Someone will die, but it was going to be whoever was standing there regardless of size.
I did not want to be responsible for anyones death, thus I would just let fate take it's course and not do anything.
Honestly, I would kill somebody either way, and it's not fair to kill the random large man because he wouldn't know what was coming. It shouldn't be my decision to play God
It was the choice that would result in the most people surviving
For situation A, I would not realistically be able to push a man down to his death just to save people. Even though it is one man's death to five, I couldn't justify it. For Situation B, it is similar, but it would feel less direct while saving three live as opposed to one.
I couldn't personally sacrifice another life, even if it would result in saving more lives. Losing one life to save 5 (or 3) is a defensible decision. It's just not one I could make.
Pushing the large person saves the most lives.
Because its better to have no impact on big life deciding decisions like that
The best choice would probably have been to push the large man, as this would save more lives. However, because I have more direct agency in that action, it felt more like murder, so I choose to flip the switch instead, which doesn't save as many lives bu allows me to have more emotional distance from the resulting deaths. There is also the hope that the large man will choose to sacrifice himself of his own initiative.
I do not think that I should sacrifice the life of bystanders to save the lives of the workers. It will haunt me for the rest of my life because the bystander/unthreatened worker has a family who values his life.
Well I briefly looked at the potential human lives that could be saved by pushing the chubby bloke and then again by flipping the switch. Logically, it's better to sacrifice one life for five than one life for three. Of course the chubby bloke wont be to appy. You know what i've just realised? By pushing the chubby bloke five workers will be saved. However, the other three will perish because of limited time. That means one chubby worker and three regular workers would be sent to oblivion while five will e saved. That's one less life... I supposed it remains a better action to do it this way than let six perish.
I honestly wouldn't be able to do either. I do not want to be responsible for the life of another, whether it be one or many.
I feel that it wasn't my job to decide the humans fate. I feel I was meant to leave it alone and let fate decide what would happen.
I flipped the switch because either way the train will kill workers on the track. I chose not to push the man because he is not on the tracks and is in no danger unless I push him. The switch being flipped is a more moral decision for me to make because ether way the train will kill 1 or 3 workers who are on the tracks. The fat man is not on the tracks.
Doing nothing kills 8 people. Pushing the large worker kills 4 people. Flipping the switch kills 6 people. Even though I wouldn't want to kill anyone, pushing the large worker kills the fewest people, even if my actions caused someone to die.
I THINK I KNOW MYSELF PRETTY WELL. IF A SITUATION LIKE THIS ONE WERE TO OCCUR I PROBABLY WOULD MAKE A DASH TO FLIP THE SWITCH. I'M PRETTY SURE THAT WOULD BE STANDARD PROCEDURE IN THE WORK PLACE, IF YOU SEE SOMTHING LIKE THIS ABOUT TO HAPPEN, THATS WHAT YO DO. I WOULD FLIP THE SWITCH.
Either way someone would die and I would never want to have killed someone intentionally
Eight people's lives are in danger. If I push the man, he and the three workers on the other track will die, whereas if I flip the switch, one man plus five workers will die. If I do nothing, eight will die.
If I make an action, I will be responsible for deciding who dies, which I think is worse than the utilitarian action of minimizing hte number of deaths. If I do nothing, then I made no judgement on who should live or die.
It's a tough choice but on one hand if you do nothing you are not saving anyone. If you flip the switch you can save a few at the minimal cost.
Killing someone never really seems moral, even if it is to save a handful of people.
This was a very tough decision. In the end, for me it was about trying to save more lives. Even though it would be really tough I feel like flipping the switch and killing one worker would be better than killing all three.
It boiled down to me saving 5 lives or saving 3. I decided that slowing Boxcar A was the better choice.
I can't explain it. It just seems like the right thing to do. Pushing the man seems wrong, because I'm sacrificing him to MAYBE save the 5. But flipping the switch means I don't mess with a person; I just flip a switch, to FOR SURE save the three. Thi is an impossible choice.
I feel that as soon as I make a decision (as in flip a switch or push the man) I am deciding who gets to live and who gets to die. I don't feel that is my decision to make.
Personally I think pushing the man is the right thing to do as it would save more lives in the end. However I would probably then be prosecuted for murder or manslaughter even though my actions saved more lives.
I felt it was the right answer. I go with my gut instinct and it's pretty much always right.
This is a horrible accident about to happen and I would not put myself in the place to make a choice where I would choose who gets killed. I would take a do nothing approach and consider myself blameless.
I was thinking I should make the choice that resulted in the fewest people dying, but I think if I were actually in this situation, I wouldn't be able to do something that resulted in someone's death. Inaction resulted in death too, of course, but it was eath that was going to happen anyway. I don't think I really like the decision I made though. I don't think I'd like any decision.
I chose the option that would harm the fewest number of people.
I wouldn't know what to do. Most likely I would just freeze up and see whatever happens.
It isn't fair to push the man, as he was never on the tracks. He made a choice not to be on the tracks and you should respect that. Aswell as it's hard to choose to take one life vs 3. At the end of the day you're still taking a life. Those men on the traks knew the dangers of being on the tracks, and still went on them, they should know the consequence for being a railroad worker.
I feel that by doing nothing I can't blame myself for anyone's death or injury. The incident would happen as if I wasn't there. It's not my personality to make such a hard choice where no answer is correct, so I would simply choose not to make a choice.
It's wrong to kill people. To take another's life just to save others is wrong.
The active choices resulted in less deaths and were thus moral (and hard) choices to avoid unpleasantness. Doing nothing is just avoiding getting blood on one's hands. I chose it however, because I wouldn't believe that there were only 2 possibilities. I don't condemn those who made a choice however.
If I did nothing, more than one person would die. If I flip the switch, many people die. If I push one man, many people live. I basically minimized the maximum potential damage.
I just had a issue of watching anyone get killed, I just used my gut opinion.
I do not believe that I have a right to decide who should live or die in any situation.
If the man was not intimidated by the box car, and he worked in the yard, then his own stupidity should get him killed. If I have a chance to save five people, I am going to take that chance and do something about it.
I thought about saving the most lives possible.
Pushing the man to save five other lives is worth going through with in my opinion. Switching the lever would not spare as many people and it would make me feel more guilty for purposefully guiding the cart towards someone who wasn't in danger before. Doig nothing would make me feel much worse than either choice however.
Well, both options where only one die are technically identical in outcome. Pushing instead of pulling the level seems like it would only be better if for some reason you thought fat people deserved death more. Which is a terrible stance. Realistically one its one or the other, pulling the lever instead of pushing him is a self preservation instinct. You're still making the right choice, but people will dislike you less for doing it.
I would not be able to physically kill someone like pushing the man onto the tracks. I could flip a switch but in doing so I would still feel very bad about the person who was killed by my actions even though 3 others were saved. That's why I feel doing nthing at all would be acceptable. You didn't kill anyone or save anyone but you wouldn't have to feel guilty knowing you caused a death. I mean your actions caused someone to die.
I cannot possibly purposely push someone onto the tracks to kill them to save others. I also couldn't purposely send a train to kill one person to save others. But not doing anything seems just as wrong too
I had a tough time deciding and I figured that the least immoral thing to do in this situation would be nothing.
It a hard decision but if you have to kill the one to save the many, I believe you should.
I'm not going to choose to kill someone just to save a few other people. It's just the luck of the draw in situations like these.
None of the actions are that moral, but doing nothing to save even one life is really immoral and pushing a man yourself is just as bad.
Because altering the train would affect me the most
I feel that if I were to interfere, I would feel responsible for the death/s of the respective workers and therefore, I would likely allow the events to occur without my intervention.
There were less deaths resulting in my decision. It's a terrible outcome either way, but one death is better than several.
I wanted to make simple choices to make my opinion clearer.
I don't feel as though i should intervene into this situation. It is not my place to act as God
There would be a tremendous amount of guilt to physically push someone in the way of the box car. I would feel highly guilty to not save anyone. Flipping the switch feels like less direct involvement in choosing to take one persons life to save 3.
it seems that the one guy i reroute and kill would guarantee that 6 people die and 4 would live. if i push the man im directly responsible for someone's death and i feel worse. if i push the man less people would die. that choice kills only four however i directly responsible for someone's death and in the moment i would feel worse. part of me hopes everyone will escape and if they dont i cant justify it as being not my fault.
I would save 5 men by pushing the one man.
I feel doing nothing is the best choice because the other 2 options would kill 1 of 2 innocent people. I feel like I should accept that these people have met their fate and I do not have the right to take someone else's life to save them.
how do you choose whose life is worth more? I don't know how to make that choice. If you asked me if I would throw myself on the tracks to save the others I could make that decision because I am being asked to sacrifice me, I can't sacrifice someone els. I don't know what to do, they're all bad, wrong choices.
This is incredibly tough (I'm sure it was intended to be). Although my inaction ultimately lead to the greatest number of deaths, I just didn't feel like I had the heart to directly participate in killing anyone. I would hope that someone or some event ould somehow step-in and I would hope that if not, people could understand my complete inaction.
It seemed more wrong to peform an action that would put me directly responsible for a death, rather than letting the event play out without my interference.
its not up to me to decides who gets killed, its up to fate.
I guess I feel that what ever the Lord wanted to happen would happen. I could now choose one over the other.
Taking any life is immoral. I would do what I could to help both parties.
I could never physically push another human being to their death even if it meant saving five lives. I would flip the switch because it would be saving lives and I wouldn't feel as responsible for the death of the one worker if I had done everything to sae the lives of three others, otherwise they would have died. If I did nothing, I would feel just as responsible knowing I could have prevented less death.
It's not right to murder anyone to save others
I can't guarentee that by doing either action, the men will be saved. However, by doing either action, I will knowingly kill one person. I couldn't do that. I'd rather leave it up to chance that the men will all live.
I feel like if I pushed the man it is just like commiting a murder although I am saving more lifes. I just feel immoral to sacrifice someone's life to save a group. I would feel better for myself if I didn't do anything because things happen the way it wa and I had no impact in it
I counted up the gain/loss from either of the actions in comparison to doing nothing (loss of 8). By pushing the man, I would save 5 while losing 4, and flipping the switch would lose 6 while saving 4.
I would feel guilty choosing who got to live and who got to die. I feel that I should leave what is going to happen up to fate and not alter it by my own actions because either way someone is going to die and I do not want to be the one to actively choose
Doing nothing doesn't help anyone. You have to decide the lesser of two evils.
This is a pretty straightforward triage situation, where I can't save everyone, but can try to minimize the damage. There are NO good choices here. Pushing a man onto the tracks is outright murder. Flipping the switch, may or may not be a better moral choce, but I view it as acting to save, rather than acting to kill.
I would choose neither and would look for another alternative.
I do not want to kill anyone that's why i picked to turn the switch.
If I know nothing about any of the people involved, their lives would be of equal value. Choices are either 8, 6, or 4 people die. Chose 4.
I could not live with the fact that my action caused the death of another innocent person. I could live more easily with my lack of action than my action.
Although flipping the switch would kill one worker, I am not literally pushing someone in front of the box car. These are all horrible choices.
I felt it was not in my duty to decide who lives and who dies. I could not sacrifice someone by my actions and be called a murderer even if I saved more lives.
I wouldn't want to be responsible for any deaths for any person. I'd rather do nothing and convince myself that there was nothing I could do.
My action (flipping the switch) sacrificed the few to save the many. It was an imperfect solution to a no-win scenario. I did not physically sacrifice anybody (pushing the workman off the platform), which would have been akin to murder. Standing by and dong nothing would have been an entirely acceptable alternative, and had the scenario played out in real life, that probably would have been my response. A simple audible warning would have probably sufficed to clear all those in danger.
Pushing the man off the platform would be defined as murder, despite saving the other 5 workers, since I would have to directly push him off the platform. However, by hitting the switch, I could claim that I didn't realize the other worker would perish ad that it was a spur of the moment decision to save the three workers. Doing nothing would result in a large number of deaths.
It's not moral to sacrifice one life to save another life.
I believe if you have to sacrifice ohe for the lives of many you should. The lesser of 2 evils.
I made the choice to save the most people possible with the least loss of life possible.
Neither of the choices involving saving others are moral at all. I still picked one, as I would feel it necessary to act, but no matter what you are directly causing someone's death in exchange for three lives, playing God, and assuming their value is hiher because there are three of them.
I would probably have felt bad about those that I can't save either way.
I don't want to have the active responsibility for a death on my conscience
Basically by doing either option, I would be killing someone that had the right to live. A person does not have the right to decide who dies unless it is himself.
I don't think I could physically send a man to his death by pushing him off a platform. Also, not got get too technical, but I think that I would be facing murder charges if I intentionally killed the man. By flipping the switch, you can limit the loss f human life, but also hope for the best and pray that the individual man would jump out of the way. Also, if there came legal repercussions, you could just claim that you did not see the man on the other track. Not a very ethical and honest answer, butyou could save some lives and protect your own as well. I would also hope that the speeding boxcar would possibly derail itself when switching tracks. Its taking a chance, but who knows.
If you can only do one or the other, whatever saves the most lives would be deemed the most appropriate to me.
I feel that if I did nothing, 8 people will die.If I do decide to do something, at least one person will die. At least if I push the man less people will die than if I push the boxcar.

I am spiritual and meditate every day, but I don't like the labels of religions. I answered the questions with regard to my spirituality

It was a wedding, so it was about love and following god together.
I was very little and I dont remember the message
Belief in God and forgiveness of other people.
What? I have no idea, it's been many, many years. Probably something about Christmas.
The message was 'community' and how we as individuals are each responsible to participate in making our community as safe, friendly and accepting aspossible.
I couldn't tell you, it was when I was a kid.
I'm Catholic, but I do usually attend Satruday night mass, which covers for Sunday. Prodigal son.
Your blessing is coming. The pastor was basically saying once you pray for something its already done you just have to have faith. Additionally, faith without works is dead so you also have to believe and work hard for it.
It has bene 13 days since I last attendeed mass and I do not currently recall the "message" of the mass.
It was probably Mother's Day, and the sermon was about mothers.
It was too long ago to remember exactly but it was for a funeral so I know it was about dying.
I do not remember because it has been over 20 years.
It was so long ago that I do not remember.
Having faith and trust in God no matter what happens.
The pastor essentially told us we should give to the poor, even if we don't want to, because that's what Jesus would have done.
I do not remember as it has been since I was a child from the last time I went to Church.
I don't remember, it has been a very long time.
This was eight years ago, I have no idea.
I can't recall. It has been about 10 years.
It has been at lease 5 months since I have attended a Sunday service that I honestly can not tell you what the sermon was about.
not sure because it is in spanish,my spanish is weak.
I can't recall the sermon itself. I went to church with a friend when I was thirteen. They had a guest speaker from South Africa who started laying hands and attempting to release demons.
I don't recall. It was probably something about going to hell.
Its been too long for me to remember anything specific about the service, its been at least two years since I went to a religious service.
Loving your spouse and remaining faithful
It was 25 years ago, and I was a child. Your guess is as good as mine.
about the Earth and how we should respect and protect it
I do not remember as it was more than 20 years ago.
The last time I attended church was to take my daughter there for an Easter egg hunt. The message of the sermon was about Jesus and the resurrection talked about in the Bible.
It was about remembering and accept Jesus Christ into your life (it was Easter).
Wandering off the path can be actually be harder than staying on the path already made.
I cannot remember. It has been over 15 years.
I don't remember. Maybe something about love your neighbor.
I would to to hell if I didn't accept the Lord as my Savior (or, in other words, put your money in the collection plate or burn in hell).
The pastor extolled the virtues of Ronald Reagan and his trickle down economics.
I don't remember. It was many many years ago.
I don't remember the exact message, but I do remember that it was from the book of Luke.
The speaker was a guest speaker. He talked about commandments, doctrine, traditions, and convictions. He warned about the possibility of confusing personal convictions or church doctrine with a commandment of God.
I couldn't tell you its been so long, but probably wouldn't of been able to tell you anyway
Women should not worry about the bills because it's up to men to provide. Also, women should not nag their husbands.
The devil comes in many forms, many of his guises being attractive and inviting. He isn't the horned, ugly, demonic entity that he is often portrayed as. He cunningly uses falls from grace to work his way into people's hearts, and many never see it comingbecause they expect him in a different "package."
I could not say it was so long ago and I was probably daydreaming.
Don't remember; the last time I attended church was several years ago.
Spiritual Gifts and how we all have one and we should use them.
It has been so long since I was forced to attend a church service that I do not remember the sermon. I have not attended church in at least six years.
The importance of donating to the church. God's wrath comes onto those who dont tith. This is why I stopped going to church and started giving my money to childrens charities.
I have no idea, it was about 3 years ago, I went a few times after my grandfather died. And before that I hadn't gone in atleast 5 years except on Christmas, and now I don't even go then.
Do not remember as it was several years ago.
To let God be the key that I locks every door in your life.
taming the tongue-taken from the book of james
It was a mass at my Catholic school to celebrate my high school graduation.
