Time Travelling Reaction Paper

            Recently, we watched a video about time travelling. I was surprised that this was advancing at a fast speed. It seems that more brilliant minds are working with the century’s high technology. Scientists from all over the world are making their own study about it. Before, we could only watch this in films and think of it as science fiction. But today, it is actually near our grasp.

The concept of time travelling is not foreign to anybody. In fact, a lot of people are quite curious and interested about it. If you are given the opportunity to go back and forth in time, would you miss it? Of course you would not. Who would, right? It is because we are often told that time is precious. It is easily lost so we should not waste it. A mistake in the past cannot be corrected by repeating the situation. Hence, some people devote their lives for this study – to be able to bend time. It is almost unbelievable if you ask me. It is scary actually because the consequences are hard to predict. And this is why this is also dangerous.

            Everything that happened in the past causes a chain of events that leads to the future. If any one of those events did not occur or happened differently, every event that follows will also turn out differently. The mistake in the past can be corrected, but the future may suffer in the end. This is too much of a risk. I do not believe that any of the past events have to be changed, no matter how badly they turned out. To be able to time travel is a huge discovery, but we have to understand that time is not something that we should meddle with. There is a reason why it goes the way it is, and we should let it stay that way.
