Absolutely! And I'd write about this woman who answers my questions all the time winning the lottery (uh, this Friday)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes, I'd write a happy life for all of my loved ones - and no endings!.

If this happened, you'd have to be VERY careful what you wrote down!. For instance, if you became extremely angry at a loved one, you'd have to make sure you don't wish them some terrible misfortune in the height of that anger!. You'd also want to avoid phrases like "scared to death" and make sure you understand the literal meaning of EVERY word and phrase you write!. If you wrote something that is a known phrase that means one thing, but the literal meaning has something to do with death, destruction or misfortune, you could be in heaps of trouble!

There was a movie like this called The Devil's Diary, where everything she wrote in this ancient journal would come to pass!. However, the things kept getting worse and worse!.

I think there would be too many pitfalls and too much temptation to write something you ought not!. The movie wasn't adapted from a book, and this idea might make an interesting book, even with the potential problems!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

yeah, i read the comments and i thought that it sounds just like a beauty pagent questionare!.

i would write sometiong besides "everyone gets along" i would write sometiong in an unbiased veiw and think- okay this ISNT gonna happen in real life!. i would probably write about how the world dosent need wars or currency, but thats about it for the good part!.!.!.

i would probably write into being the book im writing now!. with me as the main character, of course!.!.!.

i warn you- if there suddenly is no operation iraqi freedom or suddenly no need for currency, dont accept rides from supermodels walking the streets- they feed on human flesh, and then are able to impersonate you!

just thought id warn you!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Of course we'd end happily, and very old and in excellent health until the last day no doubt :) and I would make sure we won the lottery too and did lots of worthy things and I would rid the world of bad people!. Hey it's my book!. I would just write: "and one day they woke up and all the bad people were gone!." I wouldn't even need to make a criterion or explain where they went!. But I might add "and nobody missed them" just to make sure everyone was happy!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Scary thought!.!.!. I would pass on writing an ending at all, I know I can be my own worst enemy when it comes to what I think is good for me,!.
I would just toss the pen to the universe, I think it would be infinitely more unbiased on defining my happiness in regards to the future, mine and all the other characters as well!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Life has alot of ups and downs!.!.!.and if we all could have a so-called "happy ending" there would be no ending!.!.!.we would just keep on going!. But being that "endings" apply here, haveing the power to actually write a happy ending, I think that is a rare chance anyone would take!.!.!.Happy life, Happy ending!. That simple!. But in all reality, try as we might, it just doesn't always work out like that!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well, I'd write myself a good GPA, and a bit more money in my bank account at least and I'd write myself going to Comic-Con for free somehow =)

Seriously, I wouldn't write myself an ending!. I'd just write myself little things I need as I go along with my life!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Wasn't there a movie like that!? I would write myself in action packed life!. Ending world hunger and curing diseases!. I would write my self a happy ending and i would seee happy endings comeing to other people too!. Nice question!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
