Future on Hold

Sit still, take a breath. You are now a time traveller. Effortlessly, like taking that breath, you have moved into the future. One second, one heartbeat at a time. How does it feel to have the future rushing relentlessly through you, over you, around you? Did you forget your towel?

I'm not arrogant enough to wish to travel back to the past. Think of how many mistakes you could make, irreparably harming the future. Or would it be harm? Your future would then change...and the events leading you travelling might not happen, would you then become "stuck" in the past? Bend your brain around that conundrum. Would you even realize that you had done it? Or would you just start to flow with the movement of time, breathing your way into the future, without even knowing?
