Time Travel!

Hello everyone! Welcome to another icebreaker. For today's icebreaker, I bring to you, time travel. If you could go back in time to do anything, what would you do? Would you go see the first firework? Or would you be there for the first sushi bar?

I'll go first:

I would go back and build more sand castles with my little brother.


May the power of time be with you! And don't forget to tag friends!



Best of Wishes,

Jet01

Hey Jet01, I love this question! There are so many times that I would like to go back to, it is a tough choice. I think I would go back to meet the neurologist that was the source of my biggest inspiration and have dinner with him.

Hello everyone! Welcome to another icebreaker. For today's icebreaker, I bring to you, time travel. If you could go back in time to do anything, what would you do?

This one is an easy answer for me. I would travel back in time to see Elton John's concerts from 1970-1975, and then from 1982-1984.

Reason being is that he is my favorite artist, and those years represent his career peaks--as well as the years he toured with his original (and best) band.

Oh, I like that, however on a counter point, what about the learning curve that came from the mistake?

Hi Jet! Thanks for this cool icebreaker!

I think if I were to travel back in time I would start my college years again! I wouldn't change anything, I just want to do it again. I miss it!

@Jet01 I think I would keep the same major but maybe try to take on a new minor, like Italian or something!

First, humans must understand that time travel means it's not like you are setting a particular number and jumping to the data. Numbers are simply coordinates for the data that we currently have. When you call now a present state, then the moving motion is called the future. There is no such thing or destination as the "future." The future is defined as the present or existing present. So A is moving and will keep on moving, or it's been existing, or we are thinking it's moving. Anyway, it's happening like you are travelling in a vehicle. But it's called "miraculously existing."

So in reality, even though you think you can travel back to the period of time, which means you are accessing the memories, you can't live in the past. No one can. Just your memories
