If you could do it all again, what would you change?
I was thinking about time travel recently, and that question popped into my mind. (yes, I’m a dork)
I mean, we know time is linear, not circular, so we can’t travel back in time. The best we could do is observe the past.
But… if I could go back in time, what would I change? Anything? I’m sure if I thought hard enough, I could think of many, many things. But then I would be changing myself, since who I am today is influenced by the events I’ve experienced. (I won’t even go into the idea that those changes might lead me to not even create a time machine, therefore creating a horrible paradox that could destroy the universe, or at the very least myself)
The scary thought? What if the me of the future has already gone back in time, and the life I’m living now was the best Future-Me could do?
What kind of crazy messed up life must I have lived?
Or worse still…what if I was living the perfect life, but arrogant Future-Me thought he could go back and make it even better, yet succeeded only in completely screwing it all up?
Damn you, Future-Me!
old skool song lyrics
Hold the milk, put back the sugar
They are powerless to console
We’ve gathered here to sprinkle ashes
From our late friend’s cereal bowl.
Breakfast Clubbers, say the motto
That he taught us to repeat:
“You will lose it in your gym class, if you wait til noon to eat”.
Back when the Chess Club said our eggs were soft
Every Monday he’d say grace and hold our juice aloft
Oh, none of us knew his checkout time would come so soon
But before his brain stopped waving, he composed this tune:
Chorus:
WHEN THE TOAST IS BURNED
AND ALL THE MILK HAS TURNED
AND CAPTAIN CRUNCH IS WAVING FAREWELL,
WHEN THE BIG ONE FINDS YOU MAY THIS SONG REMIND YOU
THAT THEY DON’T SERVE BREAFAST IN HELL
For absolutely no reason at all except the music…
I’m listening to three CDs my ex Rhema gave me.
Does it bring back memories of her and I? Not really. We never listened to them together and none of the songs were ‘our song’(save the song, Come What May, which is probably the best song in the entire universe).
I just remembered I had the music and really felt like listening to it. The mixes are just perfect.
The song, The Distance, by Evan & Jaron is really awesome. Wanna read the lyrics? Click below
