2. Time Turner

   "I mark the hours, every one, Nor have I yet outrun the Sun. My use and value, unto you, Are gauged by what you have to do." - Inscription on Hermione Granger's Time-Turner

   The Time turner works like a Time Machine. It takes you back in time... WHAT IF YOU HAD A TIME MACHINE? WHAT WOULD YOU DO? ARE YOU BRAVE ENOUGH TO CHANGE THE PAST KNOWING THE FACT THAT IT WOULD CHANGE THE PRESENT? ARE YOU WILLING TO SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES? A lot of things are bothering me when it comes to time travel because of the scientific facts that they (experts and movies) explain. This is my opinion and reflection on the topic "TIME TRAVELLING".

   Catching up to the 50% OFF promo in a certain store? You have thrown something important and can't take it back? You missed the shuttle? You woke up late? Or you've missed that single point to that perfect score? These are just example of the reasons why someone would like to travel back to time. Let's admit it, NOBODY's perfect. We make mistakes, but some people aren't strong enough to commit those simple mistakes. MAKING MISTAKES IS COMPLETELY NORMAL, DOING THE SAME MISTAKE OVER AND OVER AGAIN ISN'T. People learn from their mistakes. You should learn from them. Dont hide from them, FACE THEM FULL HEARTEDLY. Dont give up. "Hangga't may Buhay, may Pag-asa" (While you're still living, DONT GIVE UP). The DEATH OF SOMEONE IMPORTANT TO YOU IS VERY HARD TO OVERCOME, but dont worry because GOD is still there to guide you, God has big plans for us. He is just testing us to see how strong our faith is to him. Just trust God and nothing bad would happen to us. So, be contented (It's very hard, but do your best) with your life and keep holding on.

   But if ever given the chance to travel back in time, I would go back to the time where I made the biggest mistake I made in my life, I REFUSED TO GO TO MY GRANDMOTHER THAT DIED RIGHT AFTER THEY VISITED HER JUST BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO. I felt very guilty when we went to her wake. Because I refused to go there, and I know that she becomes happy when we (me and my cousins) are there but I didn't give her that simple chance to be with us, her grandchildren...

   What did I learn? Is to make the most out of everything with your family. Be with them if you have time... Because "TIME IS GOLD" and you cant turn back time. :(

   What if YOU WERE GIVEN THE CHANCE TO TRAVEL BACK IN TIME? WHAT WOULD YOU DO? Let me know by commenting your "Back in Time TO-DO LIST" :)
