Before and After: It's A Bigger Picture

Grab a picture of yourself from a couple years ago, it could be with family, friends, etc. Look at yourself closely, Are you still the same person now that you were back then? Do you still have the same friends, same hobbies, same likes/dislikes. Now look at your room, at your walls, even in your mirror. What do you see? Is it the same person in the picture because if so, your a damn liar. Look back at the picture, do you now realize that life is full of obstacles and that you change everyday. Perhaps now your more caring, more emotional, maybe now you get that joke that your P.E. teacher made in school. I look at a picture of myself, starting my senior year in high school and do you know what I see? I see a kid that couldn't wait to graduate, a kid that was looking forward to a year full of fun and laughter. A kid that didn't have the slightest clue that on the February of the upcoming year, his whole life would turn to shit. So if someone were to ask me, "Are you still the same person?" I would have to say no, because the person in the picture was a happy kid with a great smile and now, He's hiding behind it, to cover up his true emotions...

How To Save A Life

If you had the chance to go back in time and save somebody, would you? Would you change the course of the future they were destined to be in to a future that appeals to everyone. It sounds like the butterfly effect, no matter how many times you could change the future, the outcome always remains the same even if you do delay it a little. Going back and saving someones life could mean the ultimate sacrifice for you, would you still do it? Or is the natural order of things never supposed to be touched because maybe it happened for a reason and you altering the situation would mean starting another whole batch of problems. But if I could go back in time, not only would I save someone I love but I would also be able to save myself from the sorrow that now dwells in my mind...

And I'm In Level 3

After watching a certain movie about going into one's dreams and manipulating them, I kept thinking to myself, maybe this movie is hollywood's way of telling everyone that we really do just live in a dream. Perhaps we are all just sleeping in another dimension and our dreams are this dimension. Think about it, maybe when we die, we wake up to something a lot better or a lot worse, maybe we feel certain pain in these dreams to get us prepared for whatever the hell awaits after it. If you had the choice to go back and change a dream, manipulate it, change the people in them or the events that happened, would you? ... What if you could do this in real life, would our reality just turn into a dream?
