If you were to time travel, where will you go to?
When you feel like slowing down or in need for some inspiration, search within and you will be fine. I am sharing one of my favourite methods of rejuvenation. Sometimes, I go back to the time in my life when ‘lol’ (laugh out loud) was not invented. The time when we laughed and the only way to showcase that was it’s sound. I time travel.
If you were to time travel, what phase of your life will you go to?
Where will you go? The phase that you would most probably visit would be a place where your heart was purely happy and at peace. Close your eyes. I just did. Think.
Was it the time when you ran with open arms? Or ran while stretching one arm to reach the bushes?
Was it the time when you splashed some water?
Or when someone found you while you were hiding behind a wall?
May be it was when your feet touched the moist sand?
Could it be the time when your best friend came in unannounced? Was it your school lunch break? May be that chat with your friends in the back benches of your classroom? Was it the time of your mum’s arrival from work? Or may be in your dad’s surprise when he came home from a work tour earlier than the schedule? Could it be festival time? Could it be the fun time that you had with your siblings? Was it the class that you bunked? Or the time when your teacher did not show up for the class? Could that be your first crush or your love? May be your first job interview? How about the birth of your children? The butterflies that went aflutter when you met your husband for the first time? Could it be while sharpening your pencil for making frills of wood? Or may be filling that bottle of water for school? Remember the sound of satisfaction when the water would reach the top of the bottle? That sound feels like a perfect build up to an epic scene. May be that Sunday when you had so many guests? Or the time when you finally understood a Maths question? I could go on forever.
Keep your eyes closed, breath gently and go back to time travelling. Think of your best birthday party. I remember hopping to my room to keep the presents ?
Do you remember the first time you cooked something? Go back to that memory. What was it like? The praise or may be the pretend praise from your parents?
Think about the time when you passed folded chits of paper in a classroom and giggled your head off. Were you caught in the act?
The time when you went to see a film in the theatre for the first time with your friends. I remember booking about eleven tickets for watching Titanic with my friends. Do you remember anything like that?
You can even time travel to the world of silliness. I have hundreds of those too.
Did anything from my time travel strike a chord with you? Or may be you want to time travel somewhere else? Do share your time travel ideas.
The moments when we laugh our hearts out take up the biggest part of our lives. The moments that fill are heart with love and hope, gives us all the reasons to live. Isn’t it? Keep making memories and time travel whenever you feel like❤️
Much love
