That Moment in Life

Time and time again, I have always wished to be able to travel back in time to fix or do something that I messed up. But then there are those times where I just wish to travel back to a day where there is nothing to worry about, and I'm just sailin' smoothly through my life being carefree and happy. There are those special moments in life that you wish that could go on and on forever, and then there are those moments that you just can't wait to be over. That is just life. It's how life works, sometimes it turns out good and sometimes it turns out bad. But you can't help it, because there is no such thing as going back into time to change something. Until now...

Today, I have been offered a priceless opportunity that could change my life significantly. Going back in time to re-live a day in a time machine, pretty much a once in a life time opportunity. But I have been forewarned. If you or I changed something, it could change history! Even your life could change dramatically depending on what you chose to change. Time traveling can be very dangerous, so maybe I'll stick to something I don't have to change. Everything has turned out okay so far why bother disrupt the waters of the past. So then what do I do with this precious gift of a time machine that I have subconsciously stumbled upon?

Maybe I could just go back to the days where everything is chillin', where happiness is not ever a struggle and the world is a huge unknown massiveness that I simply must explore. Where things are never what they seem and the simplest things are the most interesting things I have ever seen in my life. Back to the time of my childhood. That time where nothing matters, and I don't yet understand the meaning of what worries or fears are. Everthing is just a happy bliss and I am in the centre of this fantay. I am loved by everyone and I swoon over strangers passing by, awed by my cuteness. Thats the time I want to travel back to. The good old days of my childhood.

And so the time machine takes me back to the days of my childhood. Days that are filled with endless fun and happiness. And I am able to re-live that happy moment in life that I'm always dreaming about and thinking about. Childhood. Soon after a new invention was made remarkably, by the same person. The time machine, to your future. And once again, I'm thinking about where I want to take my journey, this time into the future...

SUPER DUPER POWERS UNITE!

POW! CRASH! BAM! A comic book is filled with super heroes and also super, evil villains that the super heroes have to defeat. When the world has so many villains, the world needs super powerful super heroes to save the citizens of Earth. So the question that was asked...What super power would you want to have to help save the world? Well, all super powers are needed to defeat evil, so therefore, I would want to have the power to be able to switch between powers. Sadly there is no such power to be able to have all the powers. As long as I have a good team of super heroes to back me up, I wouldn't really care what power I got, but if I had to choose... I'd probably would want to have the power of mind deciphering so that I would know what the enemies were thinking at all times.

In my mind the most desirable powers would have to be mind reading, laser vision, x-ray vision, being able to fly, manipulation of animals, and the ability to be able to control the elements. If a band of these super heroes joined together, I think that they'd pretty much be unstoppable to anyone that got in their way. They each have a power that they would be able to contribute to the team and stop those pesky, evil villains from hurting innocent citizens. But saving the world isn't all about super powers and being skilled. All it takes is a bit of teamwork and that, that, is much more powerful than one sole, powerful person, rather it a super hero or a villain. So if you want to win a battle, join together the most powerful forces from all around and you will see that it will make your side strikingly, stronger.

So in summary, if I could have ONE super power I would choose mind reading so that I could help my amazing, super, team out by reading the minds of the villains and seeing what they're up to. But in the end, teamwork is the key to the door of global justice. For a last note, here's a quote from the legacy of all time super heroes, the big S himself, Superman. A role model to all who want their world to be a better place.

"I'm here to fight for justice, and for truth, and for the American way!" -Superman

The World in a New Perspective..

Walking in a new pair of shoes is sometimes very difficult. Especially if you are unfamiliar with their style. What I'm talking about is taking a walk in someone elses shoes and trying out a different lifestyle for a day. With a new pair of shoes you can turn into a whole different person, whether the shoes are good or bad. If I could "borrow" someone elses shoes for a day, I would choose...

The shiny silver stilettos of a celebrity... I think that most kids fantasize what life would be like if they were someone else. Most little girls dream of being Hannah Montana the famous pop star that has two completely different identities, a pop star and just a regular teenager. Well I certainly did when I was younger. Celebrities are idolized by so many people that they are treated a different way. And they act and live such a different lifestyle than most people live. They are publicised everywhere, and almost everyone knows them and wants to be them. I think that it would be a pretty interesting experience to be a celebrity for a day to see their perks, and the other side of the not so good. I probably wouldn't want to be one all the time, but one day would give me a sense of their life.

All celebrities all share something. They're all rich, famous and most of the time beautiful. Celebrities live in the luxe at all times! Although on the not so nice side, they are stalked by too friendly fans and hounded by the paparazzi just so they can take your picture. Secondly, you would have to be very conscious of what you do and what you wear at all times because, when everyone looks up to you, they watch what you're doing and wearing for every second of your life. It would be neat to see what they have to go through in their life, just so they can do basic stuff like getting coffee or going shopping. Sure it would be fun for one day, but I don't know if I could handle much more than that, I prefer to have a much quieter life where people aren't invading my privacy at all times because that's what happens to celebrities. They don't get a choice, once they've become popular, a quiet life is not possible until senior age where no one remembers you and you just become a celebrity from the past. Some people like this but preferably I don't want that to happen to me.

So if I could be one different person for one whole day, I would choose to be a celebrity. Any celebrity would do, I just want to see how their life differs from the one I live and maybe take advantage of some of the perks celebrities get offered. I'm sure that it would be a life changing experience which would really make me see the world in a new perspective. One that I would have never imagined...

So What Does This Mean???

Let's say the world is a plant. A plant eager to start his life. At this current time this small piece of greenery would be at that stage where things are starting to happen. Where the buds are preparing to bloom into dainty little white flowers and the roots are soaking up water like a sponge. With today's growing technology the world is drinking it up faster than ever before because the more we ingeniously invent the more we end up figuring out. Which, of course leads to many more inventions and much more technology. And although this makes life a lot easier for us there may be another side to consider, the life the plant lives. There are many benefits to all this but also negatives which we also have to look at. Let's look at technology as fertilizer, too much can be disastrous. Although we want nice size able flowers we do not want our flowers to be be too overloaded and to flop down because of the weight. So therefore we must watch how much new technology and fertilizer we put into our plant's pot.

Scientists believe we will have a computer that is smarter than humankind by 2013. This will be shattering to all of what we have learned in the past. This just proves that we are in the future, NOW! Predictions just grow larger every year to what we believe can be accomplished with our ever growing sense and understanding of the world. The world is picking up the pace by starting to jerkily accelerate everything we are doing. Global warming temperatures are rising faster than ever, technology is becoming an even bigger part of our lives, and we are hardly doing anything to stop this. I'm not saying this is a bad thing, or a good thing but something is going to happen, except no one knows what. So we've got to get a grip on things and start proceeding with more caution. Things are changing in the world, almost so quickly, that hardly anyone notices.

So I take you back to the "plant" analogy. Our plant has been taken good care of in all of the millenniums it has survived. So now it's our turn to water the plant and care for it. We mustn't wreck it in only a few centuries. Humans have become so smart that we have been able to create things that are unimaginable and somewhat unbelievable. Technology that will change life as we know it. So what does this mean??? This means that our plant has just blossomed and that we must be very delicate with it, so that we do not disturb any of its small delicate petals.
