If you had the choice, which book would you read? Past or Future?

I love your question, and I could elaborate forever, but I'll be brief.\nPast, without a doubt. That's what has brought me to where I am today. I would like to review the reasons, the rights and wrongs. Relive the beautiful moments as well as the dark ones, with the perspective of time. Even if I can change nothing, I would love to understand.\nAs for the future, the beauty of it are the thousands of unknown possibilities. I don't want to know what's coming: let it surprise me.\nAnd that's it. Now I'll daydream for a few hours, and wallow in nostalgia.

As a writer, I live my life with "what if"..  what if we DID have transporters like on Star Trek?  What if my mother came back to life today while the world and I had never stopped aging?  What if I were to wake up tomorrow in a different body?   It is my life.

Best not to worry about the future.\nYou would be far better off dealing with NOW.  The past is just your memories.  The future is possible plans.  You are Here, Now.

I'd let Leonardo Da Vinci's notebooks/journals be published. He's got flying machines, a machine gun, and a lot more.. a LOT more advanced than his time.\n\nThat way, we'd probably be more futuristic now.

You can travel to the past but you can not travel to the future BECAUSE it did not occur yet.\nCheck the latest Physics web sites on this topic of time travel

I really enjoyed "Out of Time" by Paula Martinac.  It's about this lesbian couple now in New York, and one of the women starts getting pulled into the lives of these lesbian women in the 1920's, so much so that she see ghosts, visions, and has moments of almost psychic-like intuition.  Its a story about lesbians in the past, but also a story about a very modern couple working on common and uncommon issues.  I loved it.

Your looking way too ahead into the future.

i wouldnt change the past but go back to better the future.\ni wouldnt bring things with me but bring them back. because if you changed the past who's to say you exist anymore?\n\nif i could go back in time i would go to the last supper with jesus and bring back the holy grail to bring proof of jesus, \n\nwhen i was there i would also bring back the spear of destiny (used to puncture jesus' side) for it brought hitler into power and is made of pure evil, \n\ni would also bring back the voice recorded account of jesus' stand on homosexuality (and use the other 2 items as proof i did see him)(for the holy grail was never found and the spear of destiny seemed to disappear with hitler), \n\nand i would bring back the staff of moses for maybe its power may be used for good again, \n\nand video recording of the plagues and the miracles through moses. \n\ni would use these to bring peace to all the questions and the questioning.

Traveling into the future is possible.  Going back through time, however, is not.

That is a "what if" question you really cannot answer.\nJust think about ways on how to make the new days\nin your life work for you. Ask yourself some "What if" \nquestions about your future and find answers for them.\nThe past is past - you can't change it.

I'll stick with today vs. 100 years ago.  \n\nThe health and safety differences are huge, and the abilities modern technologies give us make our number possible choices in life MUCH bigger.\n\nI would love to visit the past, but I live here.

I would vote for A Midsummer Night's Dream.  It's a great dose of comic silliness with just enough philosophical inquiry into the relationship between dream and reality to give you food for thought.  The last scene alone is worth the price of admission (or rental, or the cost of a good book).

You should live in the present, the now.  \nIf you are living in the past, then you cannot see your future.\nIf you are living in the future, then you are unable to enjoy your present.
