Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday.
In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.
If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!
My question is:
What’s one thing you’d like to know about the future?

Nothing actually. I kind of like not knowing. I am in that really good place right now.
Wow, deep question. I guess I would love a sneak peek into the future to see how my family does over the next 10-20 years while the boys are growing up.
I cannot think of anything to be honest. I think it best to have my life go as it is supposed to.
I don’t know. I guess if I ever find Mr. Right. lol
I would like to know if my son does well. We’re hitting a rough patch and it’d be nice to know we come out of it alright.
Wow, that’s a tough one. I don’t know if I’d really want to know anything.
I would like to see what my son would be like in 10-20 years. I would like to see how he turns out since we are always questioning ourselves as parents. I think it would provide me some relief. I worry too much about him. I am a smothering mother. Have a wonderful weekend and take care.
I’d like to know what my career ends up being!
Hmmm, maybe if the bugs will ever stop trying to come into my house? lol, I think we live in one of the buggiest corners of the universe. I miss just having to deal w/ the tiny sugar ants. Next to what we’ve got here those things are nothing!
How many more children will we have?
If we will get out of debt!
nothing, i like constant surprise
I would love to know if my next child will be a girl!
Blast it all! I thought it was supposed to be an easy question!
Ummm . . . well, I’d rather be oblivious of the pain and suffering, and knowing the joy would ruin all the surprises . . . I guess nothing.
I’d like to know when I will finally get married
Hmm, I really don’t know. I guess I’d just like to know that my girls are happy and healthy when they grow up.
id like to see how my kids are 10-20 years from now.
I have to get a little serious. My husband is on a list for a kidney transplant. I would like to know if he gets one. It would save a lot of worry.

I would be scared to look into the future because if I saw somwething bad I would stress about it the entire time until the event happened. So I would say nothing. I would rather live day to day.
I would like to know when my husband will get promoted to managing his own store. That would be the main one anyway. The second thing is if I ever have another child if I will finally get the girl I have always wanted.
I could never decide… But I guess the first thing that comes to mind are art forms from the future, and is there life on other planets?
I would like to know what the winning lotto numbers are.
I would probably choose not to learn significant events in the future. It might just affect the present and distort my future.
Wow! I might want to know how long I would live, but then again, I might not want to know!!!
Arrrrgh! I wan’t to know when I’m gonna catch that damned shark!
I would like to know when the Lord will return.
Who my future son in laws will be?
When will I get to sleep..since it is 3:30 am!
Come on over and answer A.M. or P.M.?
I don’t wanna know!!
I don’t wanna know either. I worry too much when I know stuff.
I don’t know if there is anything that I would really want to know. I think the surprise is part of what makes life life!
I would like to see if the investment I made in 2005 will ever be worth anything like they say it will.
I’d like to have a sneak peek at my boys as adults and see if they are married and what they have for jobs and if I get to be a nana!
I would like to just see my kids and hopefully grandchildren and great-grandchildren. I think that would be neat.
That my children will be HAPPY and that I’ll get to meet my grandchildren!!!
I’d like to know how all my tv shows end so I can stop watching them! Otherwise, I will just wait it all out…. Happy Friday!
I would like to know the timing of certain events that are imminent in my life right now. It’s very hard to plan things without knowing when these 2 specific events are going to take place. Like they say, life is what happens while you’re busy planning… maybe it’s best that I try to go with the flow.
I wouldn’t want to know anything. I’m happier not knowing!
births … if i’m going to have more babies.
I would like to know that my children were happy and safe.
To know my children grow into happy capable adults.
If I’ll have grandchildren. I know – that’s WAY OFF in the future for me – but it would be nice!
I would like to know when we’ll be able to sell our condo and buy a house. That would be great to know.
nothing that i can think of… i think it’s probably better not to know what’s going to happen. if it’s something bad, i won’t be able to do anything to change it and just spend all my time worrying about the inevitable
I guess that is a hard question because there are tons of things I would want to know but how would that effect the future if I knew all those things…So I guess ignorance is bliss in this case.
I honestly would like to know if I will ever have another child. We have been TTC for 3.5 years for baby 2 and still nothing. Several people keep saying ‘it will happen’ ‘you will have another’, but at this point I just want to know for certain, ya know?
Happy Friday!
Power ball numbers for a 200 million jackpot!
That I will be financially stable to take care of my family
That my child is happy
Wow! The future can really make you think but…I wouldn’t want to know about it. Many times during my life I’ve wondered but still, all said and done, as much as I loathe surprises. I wouldn’t want to know.
i guess it would be nice to know that my two kids marry, have a family, and live happily ever after. what!? is that too much to ask for?
I think I’d rather not know about the future. It would just give me something else to think & worry about. lol
Oh. When I really think about it, I don’t want to know. Today is enough for me!
I think I would want to know… boy I can’t think of anything. It is hard to imagine the future and I think I would be disappointed if I knew anything. I like learning a being surprise . So I do not believe I would like to know anything. Great question though:-)
If I’m ever going to have kids and how that’s going to come about.
I’d love to know if I will be able to adopt the children I desire to adopt so much.
I was about to type that I couldn’t think of anything when it came to me that I’d like to know that my 53 year old legally blind friend [who just had a complete hysterectomy (they're pretty sure they got all the cancer) and subsequently a partially-collapsed lung will get out of the hospital and back to us (where I work) before they ship her off to a nursing home because she is a ward of the state] will be happy again.
I don’t think I’d like to learn about my family. I really don’t want to know if my kids turn out ok or whatever… I just wanna do the best job I can without knowing.
I think I watch too much Doctor Who. Because I kinda think it’s better not knowing.
At times I like living in the current because I want future to be suprise but I would like to know what the future of my nephews look like
Nothing
Whether my husband and I are going to make it another 10 years!
I think I’d be too scared to find out…so nothing really.
I would like to know who my kids will grow in to as adults…I think it would teach me a lot about the way in which they each need to be parented!
I’d like to know when the heck will we be able to buy a house… am i too materialistic… no people, it’s called just being practical:D
Happy Aloha Friday!
I’d like to know when I’m going to join my husband on the Other Side.
I’d like to know if I live long enough to enjoy being a grandmother.
i’d like to know where we’ll be living a year from now!
I dunno….will I be alive to see my kids get married? Grandkids…..
I wouldn’t want to know anything. It would spoil half the fun!
What is the final score of the next Super Bowl.
All Chips in for tha win!!!
