Abstract

given up gambling at all. I know some are asking if you don’t gamble then why did you buy a lottery ticket? If I didn’t buy a lottery ticket I couldn’t look at it and wonder how I would spend all the money I might win. I would imagine all of the things I would buy or do if I had all of that money. Imagine the first annual KTHT catered get-together all-expenses-paid trip for everyone to wherever we decided it would be. Yes, you would be invited too and the plane tickets would be waiting at the airport.That is the real reason I entered Musk’s drawing. Like with the lottery I never expected to win just allow my imagination free reign to go anywhere in time until I found out someone else won. Then like with the lottery I would throw out my ticket and get back to the real world. But this time I did win! Now I have to decide on which one of the ideas I thought about would I do. The first of course would be to go back to just days before my mom died of a heart attack. I would go visit her, see her, hug her, and tell her one last time that I loved her. I know that would be worth doing if I never got to use the time machine again. I also know it would be terribly selfish and I probably would not be able to talk about it to the world after I returned.I then thought about so many moments in world history that I could witness. I then regretted that I only speak English and that the vast number of events I witness I wouldn’t understand what was being said to capture the event.

n decided I needed to go back and witness something in English that I would understand.I am a firm believer in the Butterfly Effect. I would not try to go back in history to change any events because much more would change along with them. Abraham Lincoln and the others would still be assassinated. The twin towers would still come down. Pearl Harbor would still be bombed and the two atomic bombs would still fall on Japan. I thought about going back and learning about the founding fathers writing the constitution and what they meant about the right to bear arms. The whole world I think would like to know why there are so many guns in the United States and why they are killing so many people. I know however no matter what I learned people when I got back would not change their minds about the topic and they wouldn’t believe me if I told them their understanding was wrong.I thought about the moments of history I could witness. The celebration of the ending of so many wars. The great scientific discoveries. I then thought virtually every great event in history had winners and losers. The indigenous peoples in every place in the world that was colonized. The great triumphs were always at somebody’s expense. Other than great moments in the arts I could not think of many events that there were no winners and losers.I finally decided that although the time machine would be a great invention. I would want to just enter the drawing and be free to use my imagination to go any place and time in history until another person’s name was picked and I could throw out the losing ticket and go on living my life.Peace be with you</article></body>

Guest Prompt Week 2, Day 3: Simão Cunha — If the time machine was invented today, what would you do?

It came in the mail today. Elon Musk’s new time machine has been invented and has gone through the testing process and works perfectly fine. Everything is working exactly the way it should and each person has come back to the right place and time that they started at the end of their session. I have won the drawing to go anywhere in time I wish to go if I promise to share my experience with the world after I get back. I have been thinking ever since I entered the drawing where I would like to go.

The first thing I decided was I would not go into the future. I don’t want to ruin the mystery of who I am going to be when I grow up. I’ve waited sixty-seven years to find out. I can wait a little longer. I also don’t want to find out I am no longer here at that time. That might happen if I even jump a day ahead. We are, after all, only granted now not anything past that.

I can remember all of the times I noticed the lottery in the United States build up to a huge amount. I would buy a lottery ticket if I noticed that. I even do that now even though I have given up gambling at all. I know some are asking if you don’t gamble then why did you buy a lottery ticket? If I didn’t buy a lottery ticket I couldn’t look at it and wonder how I would spend all the money I might win. I would imagine all of the things I would buy or do if I had all of that money.
