Blog 4: Time travel to the past or the future

Hi everyone today Im going to talk about whether I would like to travel to the past or to the future.

Well, I would honestly like to travel to the past, specifically to the year 2017. Because in that year I would have liked to spend more time with my Tata, who up to that moment was still lucid in his mind. I remember him telling me stories of his boat trips, because he worked as a fisherman, but he claimed to be a sailor in a large fleet. My tata died in 2021, at that time I was in my last year of high school. I remember his burial and I really couldn't cry, it's hard for me to cry in public, but my chest was twisting. I was very sad to know that he had left this world without remembering many of us, every time he saw me he would say "who are you young man?" and I would say "No tatita, I am Mati, his grandson" and he would stare at me with a lost look, I can not express the feeling one has when one sees that look of a person who at the time told you with sparkles in his eyes his sea stories.

So for that, I would like to travel back to 2017, when my tata still had a good memory. But I feel that I wouldn't like to stay in that year either, because I can't stay attached to a time that has already passed. It's painful and I wish I could spend more time with my tata, but death is inevitable and sooner or later it's going to come. If I travel to that year it is not to stay but to say a last goodbye to my tatita who now rests in heaven next to my great-grandmother, I want to hear for one last time her adventures in the sea. I wish I could have that mini little moment with him and then go back and get on with my life as he has always wanted me to.
