You're the only person left...


Everyone else on earth has succumbed to the plague and is a nocturnal vampire like in "I Am Legend."

Do you go on or do you end it all?

I think most of us would spend our last days looking for other survivors. We couldn't know for sure, right? What if you're lying!?!

reply

How do I know that I'm the only one who survived? I don't. (Look at "The Last Man on Earth".) Therefore I would go on. As Winston Churchill said, "Never, ever, ever give up."

I'm not sure how you would know for sure. Perhaps a premonition.

There would be no way you could know. Therefore, the best course would be to carry on, and look for other survivors.
The most important thing in any survival situation is the WILL to survive.

It would be nice to have peace and quiet for a while, I must say.

True, but that would get old.

Hmmm...I don't know. That's a tough one. I would probably end it all at some point. But it would be interesting to explore around places uninhabited by people for a while. You would definitely have plenty of peace and quiet. But then again, if the situation is similar to I Am Legend with those darkwalkers, that would be really freaky and not so peaceful. It would get too eerie after a while. And it also depends on what kind of accommodations and luxuries I'm left with. Because if I'm really the only person left alive, eventually food, water, supply, and resources will run out. That's a thought that would always haunt me. And god forbid if I need immediate medical attention or if something bad happens. I would literally have no one to turn to. I think my main goal would be to at least try to find someone else. But I'd probably end up ending it all. The loneliness would be too much to deal with.
