Just a random question that I'm curious about:

Say you were given an object that represented your lifespan. An hourglass, a clock, a candle, whatever. Not only does that object represent how much time you have, but if anything should happen to it, you could die.

Would you want to keep it, or give it back?

I think that the answer could say a lot about a person, but I dunno.

I'd keep it in a closet or something. Admittedly I'd rather break it, because it makes me think of a deadline, and deadlines don't make me work fast lol. Probably slower, in fact. But, well, the chance of dying because of it breaking is a bit more of a risk.

And I couldn't really leave my life in someone else's hands. Especially since I'm not sure if I'm familiar with who's giving it to me. Like... if for some reason it was my mom or brother giving it to me? I'd probably give it back.
