Crank Calling

When Crossing Time, do we pause aging in that moment, or do we get younger or older? I don’t know… Maybe it’s irrelevant when we break the space/time continuum. It would be nice if we could call the future to see what we can do now to get the best possible outcome possible, because I’d like to have a better future for our younger generations, and we can’t do that if we keep screwing up… We know two wrongs don’t make a right! Or maybe we need to say a prayer that the future can come back in time to fix the wrongs…

Like in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, where Captain Kirk, Spock, and others came back to save the humpback whales, which was extinct in the future. The natural balance is important. Life depends on this, here on earth.

Or how about Star Trek: First Contact with the Next Generation crew, who battles the Borg to ensure that Zefram Cochrane actually builds his warp drive to make contact with Vulcans, so the future Federation of Planets can be. Except we still need to figure out how to stop being bigoted based on religion & stop with the xenophobia…

It’s too bad we’re not ready for this yet… Even if 2063 is 38 years from now… I think MLK Jr. and his dream for equality is needed right now, and if we can make that happen, we can move forward. Yet that seems impossible with a new president here in the USA who seems to be the opposite of what he stood for. I believe when we improve the bottom line for the lowliest of us, we improve for all – we all deserve that dream.
