It's amazing what our mind generates when we have no judgements, no barriers, and just say the first thing that comes to our mind.

A million dollars was my first answer. Not surprising.
A girlfriend was my number two. Yup, that's how authentic and vulnerable I get on stage and in public.
Respect was the word that came out of me next. I think that was my unconscious attempt at comedic humor. I'm planning on taking a stand-up comedy class soon. :)

Later I reflected on the genius of that answer. If I was to get immortality before I die, then I would never die.
Wait a minute! This could turn into an interesting riddle, I thought.
What would you like to have before you die?
A wise person says, immortality.
But isn't a wise person already pursing those things that he or she wants and periodically obtaining some of them?

A wiser person might say, “I already have the things that I want.”
But we never stop creating new goals. That's the secret of life, and that's the pursuit of happiness.
What would you like to have before you die?
The wisest person simply states one of the goals they are currently moving towards.

Twenty years ago I heard a powerful message by Randy Haugen, an independent business owner and motivational speaker. He said, “Put your dreams in front of you, spend your whole life chasing them, and never give up.”

Let's love the world together...
Love,
