A Good Day To Time Travel

‘I am intrigued by time travel, ‘Jennifer said with a smile. ‘Backward or forward would be fine with me,’ Jennifer continued. ‘Just think if we could go back in time, we could see our departed loved ones and tell them things we did not have time to say before they left us,’ Jennifer said softly.’ ‘Or we could travel forward just a few years and see how our life plans worked out,’ Jennifer laughed. ‘If we had the benefit of looking forward in time, our current existence would no doubt be altered,’ Jennifer winked. ‘Where would we be today if we had the benefit of foresight?’ Jennifer grinned. ‘Perhaps our faith journeys would be altered,’ Jennifer continued. ‘Why do we do what we do and act in the manner we do?’ Jennifer observed. ‘

‘I would have changed some things, ‘Brock noted. ‘I would have gotten to know my brother from another mother sooner,’ Brock laughed. ‘We could have ridden ponies together,’ Brock winked. ‘I like ponies,’ Brock said. ‘I would like to travel back in time to the Old West, Brock observed. ‘I would travel throughout the land of the settlers and work to know them and their lives,’ Brock said. ‘If some inbred farmers told me to get off of their land, I would have challenged them, Brock laughed. ‘If an old man sitting in a chair asked me for my help, I would not kill him; instead, I would help him,’ Brock noted. ‘I would wear the Gambler’s hat my big brother gave me, and thus I would be a Gambler,’ Brock winked. ‘With my gaming skills, I would be a card shark in Dodge City,’ Brock assured.

‘I would learn about my ancestors in my Tennessee home,’ Marcy said. ‘I would participate in the lives of my grandparents and great-grandparents,’ Marcy continued. ‘I would tell them of their great-grandchildren that were in the 21st Century,’ Marcy said with purpose. ‘They would know better of Jeb and Jaime and how wonderful they are,’ Marcy said with a tear in her eye. ‘I would learn of the old ways and the healing paths of our forebears,’ Marcy said. ‘The better way has been lost in the din of modern life, and I would recapture it,’ Marcy said with a wide smile.

‘I would write for the Dodge City Times,’ Jonathon said triumphantly. ‘There was a lot of news that did not get reported in the Old West, and I would report it,’ Jonathon noted. ‘I would write pulp fiction,’ Jonathon said with a gleam in his eyes. ‘What was Wyatt Earp really like, or Doc Holiday?’ Jonathon asked? ‘What is the true story of Gunfight at the OK Corral?’ Jonathon said. ‘Were the Earp brothers altogether good or did they have a mean streak?’ Jonathon asked.

‘I want to see the universe up close,’ Aaron said. ‘I have always wanted to fly like the Jetsons,’ Aaron laughed. ‘I want to visit Mars and spend time with the colonists,’ Aaron winked. ‘I would like to attend a NASCAR Race on the Moon,’ Aaron said as he made a zoom zoom noise. ‘We are going to have to colonize other planets in the future, and I would like to be a part of the process,’ Aaron observed. ‘We must overcome the dysfunctionality of politics on Earth,’ Aaron said. ‘There must be a solution in the future for our present distress,’ Aaron said quietly.

‘Well, they have a time machine at Fugiyama, and after our Hibachi Grilled Dinner, we will avail ourselves of it,’ Mary Jane said with aplomb. ‘The Time Machine is included in the price of the Meal, and if you do not eat, you still have to pay five dollars for the Chef Show and the Time Machine,’ Mary Jane laughed a knowing laugh…
