Stephen Hawking

Time travel.

It's real my friends. My new hero, Stephen Hawking, proved it to me via the discovery channel. Thank you Stephen.

This is Stephen. He's bloody brilliant.

Actually let me re-phrase that. Time travel into the FUTURE is possible. They've already proved it in fact. Time travel into the PAST, however, is a completely different matter; nature, in her great wisdom, does not allow it. Traveling backwards leaves room for too many paradoxes, which would then leave the future unclear at best.

I find it so interesting that going back is not allowed- by nature, by God, and in many real instances, by man. No matter how much we scream and kick, no matter how much we punish ourselves, and no matter how much we wish, the past will never change. Even science cannot erase what has been.

I used to be plagued with a desire to revisit my past. It was a cancer to my mind and soul.
I wanted to go back to the day I made THAT decision. I take it back. All of it. Or I wanted to go back to THAT relationship. I can make it better, I know I can. This time I will make it work.
And I wanted to go back to THAT moment in Europe when I was sure the world was mine for the taking. This time I would REALLY cherish it. This time it would mean so much more.

God, can't I go back, for just one day, to my childhood? Where my parents protected me from all I feared. When friends appeared endless; in the days of never ending suns.

Thank you Stephen for the lesson. I walked away feeling as if I understood complex astro-physics, and that I more fully understood nature, and therefore myself, and consequently God - the creator of both. If we wish to "go back" we need only to embrace where we've been and then move forward a different person; with hope that the future will mean more BECAUSE of where we've been.

Time is not a concrete element.

It can be bent and manipulated

But not by my hand.

Only with my mind.
