The things beyond our control



What if we had a time machine? Imagine! You could go back in time and maybe if you have regrets you could change it. A chance to do it over again, or maybe you can go back to the dazzling moments in your life, to the sad parts when you handled it wrong. Just a chance to do it all over when you need it.
But what if we had a mind-eraser. Some pills or I don't know what, maybe a drink or a magic word, when you drink or say it, you don't remember the parts in your life that you don't want to remember. I know I sound like a zany but It would be easy right? And imagine again what if we had the chance to know everything before we lived the moment. You know what's waiting for you. You know what's going to happen, you know everything. And what about a teleport? You could open the door and travel to wherever you wanted to. It would be crazy right?
Or maybe, if we had the chance to stop the time. Just to take a break. Just to breath again and push the ''play'' button back when we want. Because sometimes life hits us harder than we expect, doesn't it? Am I the only one? Or when we are in a difficult situation and we don't know what to choose, when you want both of the options, we have the chance to split up and live them both and when you're sure about one of your choices just delete the other one. It would be CRAZY if we had that opportunity, don't you think?
People always say I wish I could do this or I wish it was possible to do that. Always sulking about regrets, maybe's, what if's and a lot of more common things. I think the essence is we are lucky that we can't do all those things and we don't have this in our control even if it's sounds so great sometimes when you really need it. May you think I’m quirky  but seriously for me it's better without all those options. We only can learn if we fall down and get back up by ourselves. We can't be that greedy to want it to be so easy. I even think life would be very boring, if everything was easy to get. In the end we all know everything happens for a reason. I think regrets are a waste of time, just go on don't let your way slipping away. Even a bad situation can send you to an unexpected good direction, time or place. I know it’s hard to believe when you’re stuck in a bad time but in the end you can flaunt when you've made it.  
A wrong choice is like a strict teacher, probably you first won’t like the teacher but in the end you will see he/she helped you to be better in something. Like a wrong choice, first you will regret it but in the end you will not make the same mistake again. 

Merve,
