If you've been through the time machine,
And saw that the person being together with you isn't the one you are currently having,
What would you do ?

If you've been through the time machine,
And realise that you won't be able to have certain food anymore,
What would you do ?

If you've been through the time machine,
And realised that you aren't having the same job and opportunity you have now ,
What would you do ?

Would you shrink and avoid being with that someone, somewhere, something or sometime ?

Instead of guessing and predicting the future,
Live your life the way you want.

This time machine concept is just created to make you realise that you have forgotten that we are able to overcome the circumstance and still survive.

Even without a time machine,
We will all come to an end,
And we clearly know that.

So,

Instead of not being with someone just because we aren't with them in the future,
Take a chance , fall in love.
If that time machine allow you to see 10 years into the future, but you decided not to be with him or her ,
You sure won't be in 10 years.

What if a more advanced time machine is created and allow you to see 20 years ahead and you realise you are with him or her ?

Instead of worrying about unable to eat certain meals in the future,
Appreciate every single meals you have now.
Enjoy every last flavour of it.

Instead of jumping jobs just because it's not the job you have in the future,
Learn and grow along with the job.
Prove yourself capable of handling it.

Instead of giving up on opportunities,
Appreciate each chance you are given

You only live once.
Stop staying alive ,
Start living.
