Sitting under an apple tree.

If I got into a time machine. Wouldn’t be sure which button to push. Into the past. Or into the future. Yes, a tough decision. At least, I already have a hint about what life was like long ago. But as for the future, there’s no predicting. It could be cataclysmic. Maybe our planet would have been destroyed. Maybe going back to before the dawn of civilization. That would be my best bet. Before it all started. I suspect that would have been an  idyllic time.  Wonder if survival would be difficult. What would I eat?  Maybe an apple. No. No. On second thought. That got someone into big trouble. Too much knowledge.  A curse? Or a blessing? I’ll sit under the apple tree. And ponder that for a while. --Jim Broede
