National Wormhole Day Bloghop



In honor of Albert Einstein’s 134th birthday,
Stephen Tremp, Laura Eno, and Luanne Smith are hosting the
National Wormhole Day Bloghop.

What would you do or where would you go if you could traverse a wormhole through space or time just once? One safe, round trip passage.

Tell the world, in 100 words more or less, what you would do if you had a two-way ticket to traverse a wormhole. 

Considering all the financial suffering my family has experienced in the last five years, I should either go back in time and invest in Google or Apple, or go forward and see what stock is super hot, ‘cause damn, college is freakin’ expensive. 

But all I really want to do is go back twenty-eight years, five months, and eighteen days and tell myself that, at eighteen years of age, I am strong enough to raise my daughter, that I can do it on my own and don’t need my parents permission or assistance, that her father and I will have the strongest, most loving marriage ever, that even though it might be selfless to let her go so she might have a better life with the adoptive parents I’d chosen for her, what her father and I have to offer is what is best.

If only…
