Truth is, most of us lack imagination on our own. Then, along comes the latest invention that stretches our understanding of what is possible as evidenced in its manifestation. For example, ten years ago, the average person could not have imagined the seemingly endless possibilities that our current version of what artificial intelligence (AI) is capable of. Just because you can not imagine it does not mean it is not possible. Time travel is not only possible, but also much easier than you think. It all begins with our thinking.
Author Rainbow Rowell said, “I like science fiction, I like fantasy, I like time travel, So I had this idea: What if you had a phone that could call into the past?” My mind immediately developed a list of at least 50 people [religious figures, sports icons, family members, etc.] to contact. I realized that R. Rowell had placed me in the position of a person from the future to whomever I contacted. At this point my mind was in overdrive. How could I best formulate my questions for the person from the past in such a way that they could have a greater outcome? So, I quickly began to form two or three questions for my would be contacts and my head started spinning. I wanted to see this thought provoking idea through to a reasonable end. I reasoned, since most decisions made are based on the information already known, it makes sense to gather as much information as possible to create better outcomes.
So, how does one go about creating better outcomes? Develop a solid guiding generic template. The template that made the most sense was… Thinking inspires action, and action influences outcome. It forced me to look at the basic structure of human interaction because after all people are people. We each have our individual stories about our lives and they are strikingly similar. We all laugh, cry, have good days, as well as not so good days.
The pattern began to unfold like a flower for me: The memory of a person’s life will continue to metaphorically carry on as long as the last person who remembers them continue to share stories about them. Capture that special persons memory while they are still present and generation after generation can benefit by identifying what provided that particular individuals humanity and in their own words.
At this current moment in human history 2023 we cannot physically transport people in time. However, it is possible that your likeness along with your ideas, hopes, dreams and desires for the future can easily be transported in time. Using modern day technology that can be operated by a four year old. The best part is that you already have what you need, and only have to intentionally activate the device by placing it in the O-N position.
During this holiday season I implore you to actively engage those individuals in your life that could benefit others in the future and capture their nuggets of wisdom via readily available mediums (written, spoken and/or filmed). At the end of the day everyone deserve to have their stories retold to keep their memories alive. If you do not have an idea on how to start, please check out our website offer. We are providing (Free of charge) an easy to use method of capturing memories in an easy and organized way.
