A Few Hours of Fun

This possibility reflects my night out New Year's Eve. Last night, I was around a group of people who were non-judgemental, welcoming, warm, open. I met a lot of "good people" - people who are focused about being good to those around them. I didn't have anyone ask me about my research; I could just talk about different subjects and relax and enjoy the company and food and drink that someone else has spent a lot of time putting together. For a few hours, I felt surrounded by warmth, joy, and hugs. Hatred, spite, and manipulation did not exist. I think it would be nice to experience something like this on a regular basis.

This post obliquely reminds me of having recently watched the movie "After Life", about which I continue to think.

Answering the question the movie asks, "If, as you transition from life to death, you can take only one memory from your life with you, which one would it be?"

If you haven't watched the movie, consider renting it. I think you would find it intriguing, and you might even find another "Possibilities" post lurking in it.
