Have you ever recognized that why sometimes you feel like time passes very fast but sometimes it passes so slowly? Does it mean time passes unpunctually? If we measure time by our feeling toward time, it is psychological time but if we measure time by a clock, it is a kind of physical time. Time is measured by each person perception and awareness of time. Time can be different in one’s mind and perspective. Some people may view time as only measured by a clock but others may view time as the experiences and events that come to their lives and those experiences and events will become the past only.
If you would travel into time, where would you go, the past or the future? Why? There is always a motivation behind when someone wants to have a time machine and travel backwards or forwards into time. Obviously, there are main motivations for travelling through time.
The idea of escapism, being unable to accept the truth and reality in life, we want to travel through time in order to escape from the reality of our present time. That why a time machine is imagined as a tool to transport people to travel into time to help get away from a discontented condition in the present.
The motive of undoing past, of course, motivates people to travel back to the past. Sometimes, we may want to undo things, or to be given a second chance to go back to the unforgettable time to change it. Such a wish still remains in everyone’s imagination as life is not perfect. It would be good if we had a second chance to revise our own mess and mistake.
If you choose to travel back into the past, in terms of psychology, according to Sigmund Freud, you are the kind of dominating past person! Why some people or even you like to talk about your past even it passed about 5 or more years ago? Dominating past persons may have some unsatisfied and difficult things in the present that you want to run away from them. Or else your past is more pleasant than the present.

It is good sometimes to recall about your past memories and have such a daydream and imagine ourselves in the future. Thus, the idea of traveling into time both in the past and future reflects the state of a human’s mind and the many reasons why they want to travel back into the past or travel into the future.
However, there is no time machine and time travelling is possible only in terms of theory but it has been discussed about its possibility in the practical term.If we are obsessed too much with the past event, we may become ill and cannot continue our life in the present time. We should live in the present, forget the past and do the best in our present time are the best thing to live with the reality world.

If I have to choose between going back to the past and going to the future, I will choose to go to the past. There are many negative results of my careless actions. I feel pain, guilty and ashamed. However, it’s just a day dream. I must stay with the present and prepare for the future.
ReplyDeleteWhen we think back to the past, we always feel that “we should have done this or we shouldn’t have done that” because we don’t know the value of time. So, I think that we should manage our time as much as we can. We were born once. We can’t go back to correct the mistakes. Think carefully before decide to do something. Please remember that “Time is the most valuable thing and it flows like a river.”
I’m the one who is not happy with my past. But…I don’t want to back to the past and experience those bad situations again.
ReplyDeleteI think…If I go back to the past, I might choose to do the same things that I had done. If the past is really changed, I’ll never know what’s going to happen in my present and future. I don’t know…. maybe it might turn to be worse than what it should be right now. Everyone is all tied together. If my life is changed, somebody else’s (especially the one who directly contact with me) must be affected and changed also. I think I’m the present-type. I don’t want to go back to the past and afraid of the uncertainty of the future.
In my opinion, we should stay in our present. Just think about what we can do to make lives happy. Let the past be our lessons not the one we cling to.

ReplyDeleteTime is like the illusion that people can not touch it and it is sad that we cannot turn back the time to fix the mistakes. In the other hand, it is good thing that we can not turn back the time because this world would be lots of crisis. Because of that, the criminal would do more bad things and then they could turn back the time to change the situation they've done. I would not deny that I always think about turning back the time because I want to go back to my past in order to change lots of mistakes I've done. Like when I was 19, I’ve done nonsense things like played online game too much that made my GPA became worse. That time my mom felt so upset and I also felt so regret about what I’ve done that made my mom cried. I just want to go back at that time and I will not do it again but it is impossible for me.
ReplyDeleteSometimes I want to travel into the future because I want to know how it would be in the next 100 years from now on. It would be very exciting and fun to know the future in terms of technology aspect but in the same time, it would be very scary. If we know the bad future and we can not change anything, the rest of our life in present would be very sad, hopeless, and down hearted. Hence, the important thing to do is make today the best day for you, and keep the bad things that you’ve done in the past as the life experience to improve yourself to do better in the future.
It has been such a long time since we finished this course. Nobody comes and write this site anymore. Hopefully, we have a chance to share our thoughts and ideas through this again. I still wanna write sometimes though. At least I still want to keep this account as a great memory of this course. Keep in touch all friends if you come and check it out.
