Moving to the past
... and worms and silverfish and...
oh... um... hi...
[grinding of gears]
I guess picking here & now would be out of bounds?
I might wish to live in the settled, peaceful 1940s-'50s, right here where I grew up, the height of human civilization thus far. Liberty, opportunity, family, faith.
Or a hundred years ago when my great-grandpa was starting the cement plant here at the beginning of the oil boom: wild west meets industrial revolution.
But if I took with me knowledge of what was coming... then I believe I'd rather just be in the action-packed threat-laden Interesting Times of here & now.
As my 92yo mother likes to say, I just want to see what comes next!
