Future. What's the point in reliving the past? There's no point in trying to change anything in the past. Can't change other people's actions and behaviour. There's no point in trying. When people have made up their minds to do something, you can't sway them. I guess I'd rather see how the future plays out.

@Footballstar Well gee thanks. There goes hope! 😂 I would like to think and hope to see that I'd be in a better place than I am in now. Unfortunately I can't see into the future. Here's to hoping it's better than the present.

@Ysa9257 hope is better than knowing for certain if knowing means tossing a coin to pick effectively, at least with hope you can decide
Ysa9257 · 22-25, F
@Footballstar I'm not so sure. Then again, I can hope for a lot of things and who's to say they'll come true? But all this doesn't really matter, does it? Can't see into the future anyway.

@sighmeupforthat There are many cures for cancer. It's the western treatment for cancer that in most cases actually kills us. Cancer is a billion dollar industry, a giant ponzy scheme.

One of the most prominent cures being a diet based on far more alkaline foods than acidic one. Garlic too. Essiac Tea also.

I have this fantasy about seeing my home town and present town back before Roman times. Long before the Saxons invaded. Something like 4000BC would be interesting, just as civilization was beginning to spring up around ancient Mesopotamia, India and China.

I suspect it would mostly be forest with a few small settlements here and there. Nevertheless it would be fascinating.

I also think ancient Lemuria and Atlantis civilizations that were destroyed long ago would be amazing too see especially as we still have very few tangible physical evidence they actually existed. They were supposedly far in advance of us both spiritually and technologically.

@LaCrazyCucumber Sounds like quite the adventure!

The past. Going to the future would be like the ultimate spoilers and make life boring
LaCrazyCucumber · 46-50, M
@FootballstarI do think if you went far enough into the future say perhaps 5000 or even just 1000 years life would be so utterly unrecognizable the way things are going technologically.
Footballstar · 26-30, M
@LaCrazyCucumber yeah but say you went there and saw what say mobile phones become, you'll always be disappointed with what comes in your lifetime and the same goes for everything else
LaCrazyCucumber · 46-50, M
@Footballstar I can see the direction they are heading in anyway. Bio-integration will likely be the next big step, but first once people get used to the idea of the mobile being integrated into a pair of spectacles or contact lens and controlled via thoughts or hand gestures. The next logical step from there would be an implant.

If anything I might be happy just to stick with my current technology with regards to mobiles! But I know what you mean. PSVR in 10-15 years time will be incredible.

I can foresee us having holodecks ala Star Trek or being in a real tangible virtual world such as in the Matrix loading programs within our lifetimes. What could be better than that? Perhaps intergalactic space travel.

The future

The future. When you really look at history, the past is pretty terrible place that just got better with time.
Footballstar · 26-30, M
@ViciDraco there's a difference between being worse than now and being terrible.
As i said to someone else, post doesn't mention living there, you could just observe, imagine watching the first transatlantic phonecall, or watching the football match mid ww1
ViciDraco · 36-40, M
But why, when you could see the first city on mars? Or the first person to live to be 200 years old?
Footballstar · 26-30, M
@ViciDraco because then you'd spend you're whole life when you return to the present thinking nothing was ever impressive.
Or the world could be a disaster zone in the future and youd spend your life waiting for that to happen, paranoid, thats no way to live

@Stereoguy Good idea. I've been using google since it was a beta. I wish I had had the sense, savings and foresight to by shares when they went public!
