Earth, Wind, Fire, Water--if you were one of those elements which would you be and why?
I absolutely love water. I love what it does inside and outside the body. It can be peaceful and serene, or powerful and tumultuous. It is energy, it gives life, and it flows. It has many forms all that are vital for our existence. For those who comment and believe in God/higher power, I have been told the element you choose is also how you view God. I feel mine is very fitting. I'd love to read your view.
i'd love to be fire because i have a more fiery personality although i do like to relax sometimes, but generally would love to be fire.
I am all of these elements in one:
earth is my body,
water is my blood,
air is my breath and
fire my spirit.
I think I'd be fire. I just tend to destroy everything around me.
I'm a little reluctant to (shall I say) "air" my thoughts on this, but I think I'd select wind. This may be a deluded and/or egotistical view; but I think of how wind is both gentle and powerful; how it can be elusive, how it's not something that can actually be seen; and how it's "territory" involves not just Earth, but the sky as well. It shifts and changes, yet remains essentially the same (of course).
It's not "mean" like fire. It's not "dirt-and-stone", the way Earth is. It's not heavy like water can be.
Yes - I like the wind. Whether I'm actually like the wind or not - separate issue, I guess. Keep in mind that this is the Internet, and I'm a writer. There's always the chance I've given an answer other than a genuine one. (See? This just may be my attempt to remain elusive - like the wind. )
Wind... It entails freedom and being carefree. It could change the ability of water into a very strong whirlwind, a flame into a wildfire, and the land into dust. I guess, being a wind is all about simplicity yet within that simplicity lies great ability.
I would be the earth because it embraces everything living thing of Nature and its beauty. The earth has the dirt, mountains, hills, valleys, rivers.... which is the giver for all living creatures and mankind.
I'd go with water.
One of the first things scientists look for when exploring other planets is a sign that they contain water.
Without water there can be no life.
I was thinking I would answer Water because we have so much water in us and spending time near lake water is very relaxing to me.
But, then I thought about it for a while and realized that Earth contains everything you've mentioned; so why would I choose just water and exclude everything else?
So, Earth is my answer since it has all you've mentioned and more!
It would be wind.........strong and yet gentle. Powerful, yet welcomed .
Powerful enough to destroy.........gentle enough to cool your brow.
Welcomed and feared.
While the other elements also have this power, wind is not yet contained.
I would not be contained and manipulated.
Probably fire, my birth sign (Sagittarius) is a fire sign, as is my disposition. I can't imagine being any of the others somehow
I would like to be water. Water is all around us - 75% of the planet earth and our body comprises of water. Furthermore, it signifies calmness and gives meaning to the life !!
So Angel709 asks the question "Earth,wind,fire,water - If you were one of those elements which would you be and why?". Here is the link if you would like to see the answers. There are interesting arguements for all four. EARTH Let's begin with... read more
Wind. The wind is not bound by anything and it is free of everything. It cannot be seen but it makes its presence known.
Angel, that is a great question!
I would be water. I live for water! Water sustains humans, animals, plants- just about everything. Water is delicious; it gives energy and beauty. It's close to perfect....naturally.
All life ... Hath been Created of Water ... Al Quran.
So its not a question of what I'd like to be ... but What I am.
The d'Ginns are of Fire, and Adam, of Earth ...and
Air, is the Breath of Life ...
Accoring to my astrological sign , I am the Earth, but I feel like a fire

What made "Earth, Wind, and Fire" one of (if not the best) R&B/Funk bands of all time?The founder of EWF, Maurice White, passed away yesterday. What a loss of a genius music maker. What was it about him and the band that made them so awesome? What are your favorite songs?

Does man come from water or dust?Our body is made up of more water than flesh. Then how I it that they say man is from dust. We need water to drink or we die, we need water to keep clean, water to cook, water to do just about everything. The only thing I see needs dust or dirt are plants.

The Bible states that God created the Waters, but when did He do this?If you notice in the book of Genesis Chapter 1 it does not state the day in which God created the waters within the 6 days of creation. Between verses 2 and 6 it implies that water already existed. However, throughout the bible...
