Do you really need that Time-Machine? Do you?

Almost everyone, if can't simply say: everyone, is dreaming of a time-machine. Some say, they want to fix something in the past. Some say, they want to go back to some memories. Others say, they want BOTH of them. The question is "do you really need the time-machine?"

Not really.

First of all, past, those bittersweet memories, is all yours and forever be yours. Will everything stay the same if you go back and fix some parts of it? Of course not. And, will it be better if you fix them? I can say: absolutely no, it won't. I sometimes sigh because of my past, but then I'm back to what I believe, everything happens to me is the best that can happens to my life. There's no need to change, to fix. Even those that we think are supposed to be fix, they actually are fine; just the way they are. Mistakes are so normal and precious. Mistakes are there so we can learn to be stronger, to be more patient, to appreciate life more.. and of course, to not repeat the same mistake.

And what about those good memories, those precious things that we always want to repeat? It seems nice to be there again, doesn't it? Yeah, it's nice, but have you ever thought why they're so precious? Why they keep hanging on our mind? Well, it's simply because we can't go back to them; that's what makes them so precious.

Do we need that time-machine? Told you, not really. But needs and wants.. they're two different things, right?
