If I had a time travel.

You might think the idea of a time travel is another one of those puerile ideas scientists come up with to prove just how weird they are. Its probably true, but as long as there is a  possibility its only a matter of time before the government starts taxing trips through time. Like any other positive thinker I already have a list. A list of stops I'll make as I make my trip through time.

  I don't know if watching philosophers makes you wise, but I'm hoping it does. It is why I will stop at centuries before Christ. Perhaps I'll absorb the minds of Plato, Aristotle, Aristarchus and Archimedes just simply  observing them. I have a  likening for smart minds so I would have would admire the smart minds of Egyptians and Babylonians, the minds that invented Algebra. It is my hope that I'll swallow their thought process.

   Next stop would be the 17th century, to catch up with my buddy (in a parallel universe) Isaac Newton. I think I will spend years there. There's a lot to learn here. All the way from half my Physics textbook to the real stories behind them, to the brain behind them. Newton is a living proof that you don't have to be loud or normal to make an impact. 

   Thereafter I would have to meet Michael Faraday, the black smith's son who later refused the prestigious position of President of the Royal Society of Britain. This man's life will re instill in me the fact that passion is the real key to sucess not even finances can get in the way. 

   Next stop would be 20th century. I will of course pay tribute to the big names of Albert Einstein, Stephen Hawking and Steve Jobs among others. I also wouldn't want to miss out on the really extraordinary people; Mother Teresa who believed in the power of small, Jessica Cox, who is a living proof that we can't make excuses to achieve what we want.

   All these people were pretty ordinary, they didn't have 25 hours in a day and neither did they eat special manna from heaven. Everything about them was just ordinary, in fact if I hadn't seen their familiar faces, am pretty sure they wouldn't stand out from the crowd. I guess that's what makes life amazing, when extraordinary is borne of ordinary, or even less than ordinary.  Through passion, perseverance and persistence they have built something, broken barriers and lived miracles.

 Am not sure if the time travel will travel to the future but I would like to leave that a mystery. I would come back to now, a messy world where the real adventure happens. I don't know how this experience will affect me but am pretty sure I will be wiser. Every obstacle will just seem so small compared to what these giants had to live through.

   Here I am, with so many possibilities for the future, with opportunities Newton never dreamed of and visions of a professional dreamer. I guess that that's enough because if there is anything I am certain of is that, there is nothing wrong with wanting things you can't see.
