Post #8 – A True Story

January 8, 2010

Now I know I am not done page three, and the rest of my time travel journal, (The Time Travellor’s Diaries.) but I decided today I should post a story. A True Story. One of my own, that I should have written a long time ago. Now I know that it isn’t very long, but the meanings behind it run so deep, I just had to share it. and expand on it, and edit, and share it. And I hope you have similar experiences, and please feel free to share them all on this story. Connect them with a comment, or a link, or even just email me directly. (My Address is on post #1- Hello World)

Ok, so here goes:

My story is of a miracle. It is a true story, and it is too deep to be just a coincidence. Although it happened close to four years ago from now, the time I am posting this, I know the story and everything behind it is true.

So there I was, done my shift at Wendy’s for the night. Now Wendy’s closed at Ten on Sundays, but we didn’t get out of there for another couple of hours after cleaning up and everything else. Now I can trace this back to sometime between April and May, cuz I know that I had stopped doing my paper route and Started Wendy’s around that time. I think this may have been one of my first couple of weeks working there. Also it wasn’t cold out side. Anyway, So there I was at Maybe Midnight, waiting for a bus to come. I had forgotten what day it was, and so I sat, and I sat, on that bus stop bench, just waiting. and waiting. soon, a stranger appeared, and we sat, and talked, waiting for a bus this Sunday evening. Please note, in Canada, most buses don’t run on Sunday. He eventually gave up, and as he departed he said he was going to his friend’s house. He also wished me luck. so I sat a little bit longer, and over time, I had to face the fact, (still not remembering today was Sunday,) that this bus was not going to show up.

So I decided to start walking. Between work and my house, there was a kind of Gully, that was maybe three hundred feet down, I wouldn’t be surprised if I was over estimating, but anyway, it wasn’t a three foot drop is what I am trying to say. well, it wasn’t a cliff like drop, but a really steep hill. and so my dad didn’t want me walking past there in the middle of the night. So knowing this, and not wanting to go against his wishes, I decided to start walking to the edge of town. Walking very slowly, and as I did, I prayed to God to please send me a friend or someone I knew I could trust to drive me home safely. I didn’t have taxi money at this time either, and so I decided to just walk and see where my feet took me. I slowly made my way to the edge of town, and I stopped at the last gas station there was. I walked in, and told the clerk I didn’t have any money, and I asked if it was alright if I stayed for a minute. He said it was alright. I knew I was technically loitering, and that is against most gas staion’s rules, so I was grateful he let me stay anyway.

As I waited there, I saw just how dead it was. No one came in, and so no one left. It was just me and the clerk. soon, A car pulled up. It was my neighbour. When I had done my newspaper route, she was my first stop. and when she was outside, I would stay for a minute, and we would talk. This went on for most of the time I had done my route, (which was almost three months,) and so I knew I could trust her.

I asked her nicely for a ride home, and she said it was alright.  She was going home too, and so it was not a problem for her. so I got in, and she drove me home.

Now it wasn’t at all her showing up that got me, it was the conversation we had had in the car on the short drive home. I thanked her, and told her I was glad she had stopped. She said she needed gas, and so she stopped. But the gas station she had stopped at was on the other side of the highway than the direction she was heading. You see, WestBank BC is built right on the Highway. This Highway splits into two one ways, and that is the main route through the town. This gas station was the last one on the side going back toward Kelowna, and Glenrosa was in the direction of Peachland and Penticton from there. But it actually wasn’t even this that made me know it was God, it was when she went on and said that she would have been fine if she wasn’t called in to work that day.

 and now, reflecting back upon it, I see just how much god had worked there. At first all I saw was that she was called in to work, and stopped at the same gas station I was. But now, after spending most of today texting it to a friend, and then writing it here, I really see. I have turned over new dirt, and see even more than I did. First, let me explain to you that the drive from Kelowna to Westbank is not at all the same hour drive to Regina from Moose Jaw. from Reg to MJ, there are maybe three gas stations, and from Kelowna to Westbank, there are too many to really count (well along just that drag I am taking an under estimated guess at ten). And so her stopping at this particular gas station was truly like pulling a needle from a haystack. also because she had to cross over about a block or so, to get to this gas staion.

And her being called in is also a clue that this was God at work, answering my prayer. for she was called in earlier that day, and before I even knew that I would see this problem, he had set up a solution. You see living in Glenrosa (which is kind of like a suburb of Westbank) I had to go over a distance to get to school, and from school events, I would try and find a ride so I didn’t have to wait for a bus. no one was going that driection, and so I knew that in asking for a ride, a no was sure to come. and so this one time thing where someone was actually going out to Glenrosa was truly a miracle. 

So it was being called in,
her stopping for gas,
and my doing the paprer route

that all came together, and made this a true miracle in today’s age.

Post #7- Bottom half of page three.

January 8, 2010

ok, so here I will write the rest of page three.

(Jan 11, 2010)
I have “Amelia Earhart – back in time, or to the future?

I then have drawn some time lines that look like the scale lines they used to use in Math class. lets see if I can draw one:

                                                     Jumped to here
|——————————-                                   `————————————|
start/birth                         Jump through                         End/Death
                                         time to the future

where as for you, the line is unbroken, and time travel is instant. but time still moves around you, and so you have disappeared off the planet until your arrival. (now the years can really be anything, so I didn’t write them. but if you wanted, you could fill in whatever you wish)

or is life pre determined, like

|- – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –  – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – |
Birth                                                                                          Death

Can worldly things really have an influence on this, or is your time pre made, and so no matter what, that is when you die? (ie murder, healthy eating vs non healthy eating, etc…) and how would we know. like if that person pulls the rigger and kills us, was that pre-determined, and so even though he had a choice, it was his fate to do so anyway? or was it all in our hands? No one will ever know for sure.

and is it possible to jump to the past and stay there, eventually dying, and have no influence on your birth point? like:

>—————————-                |——————————————-<
Jump to here                    Birth                                             Jump
                                                                                 back in time

Now I didn’t put in a death cuz the question is can you die before you were born? Also, if you did go back in time, would you forget what you already know, and revert to the same technology the new time has, or would you bring your future knowledge with you to the past?

I like how in the margin I wrote:
“Writing a program for the computer to know a program language is like studying the brain. when studying the brain, you are using the it to know what you are studying. kind of like, in my mind, a large circle. It starts with using the brain – to see the brain – to Understand the brain – to use the brain. (or like a web cam pointed at the screen, the cam sees the screen, and so the screen displays the screen. the cam now sees the screen displaying the screen, and so displays that, and that is how you get the webcam tunnel effect. As the Camera sees and updates what it sees, the thing it sees changes, and so goes on for eternity down a long tunnel. (the same effect is possible with two mirrors, but I find the viewer’s head gets in the way too easily.)

Page four is short, so I’ll tack it on to here.

I have  a picture of a circle, (representing the earth), and I have marked each of the four quadrants from a northern view. At the top I have a line labeled International Dateline. at the 3 o’clock, I have 6 AM. at the 6 o’clock, I labeled it Greenwich meridian (pronounced gren-itch) 12:00 PM. at the 9 o’clock I labeled it 6 PM. (and the centre says Northpole. South wont work the way I have it because when you are on a spinny chair and looking to the floor, the world spins in one direction, and as soon as you look to the ceiling, it spins in the opposite direction. So in order for a southerly view to work on my example, I would just have to mirror everything as it already is.)

Around the Earth I have drawn a line that points counterclockwise = East; clockwise = West. At the top of the page, where I labeled the Dateline, I have it marked Left hand side (Eastern) Dec 31, and the right Hand side (Western) Jan 1.
(these dates are substitutable as I have also written Jul 3 and 4. this was for understanding, and to double check that I was right the first time. I was : D )  I also just edited it and labeled relative places, like Japan, China, India, Africa, England, Canada, and Hawaii.  
Basically when you travel East, You also Travel Back in Time. This makes sense if you think of it in the aspect that Ontario would hit 6:00 before Manitoba, and Man would before Sask, and sask would before AB, and AB before BC. So assuming you could travel fast enough (maybe have to fly), you could essentially leave BC at Six, and Arrive in Ontario also At 6. (course it would be longer than a 1 hr flight). and the exact opposite is true When Travelling West.You are Essentially travelling forward in time.

So in the theory of Amelia Earhart’s Mysterious dissappearance, and presumed Time Travel (which I still have to research), If she was travelling East, she went back in Time, and if she went west, she may have appeared Ahead in time. And in using my diagrams above, if she went ahead in time, Depending on how far, She will have disappeared from the earth, and return at a later date. but to her it will ahve felt like no time at all.

Also on page 4 is a diagram of Earth and the sun, and the planets, and The Asteroid belt. (kind of looks like a Bohr Diagram from Chemistry class, just without the Electrons written in yet, but 1 -Earth; or a bulls-eye, lol)

The centre contains a Sun, (a dot), and there are 4 rings around it. 1 for Each Planet: Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. Then I have a fifth ring, but this is all x’s for the asteroid belt. On Earth’s ring (the third one), there is another dot (Earth), and around that I have put a ring. Not for the moon, but to represent the Earth’s spin on its axis. Looking down from the North, The Earth Spins counterclockwise. (Sun rises in East, sets in West…), as for the Revolution around the sun, I can only assume, and so I wrote it as Clockwise, but I could be wrong. (my sister’s starry night enthusiast 5 program says different…) all well.. Anyway, we know 1 Earth’s turn = ~24 hrs. and 1 Revolution around the Sun = ~1 Yr.

Anyway the reason I wrote this, at least I think this is why, is because In my own theory, When you travel back in time, you are not just, going to a diferent time, but you are also sending the world back in time. like when you rewind a video, and everyone resets to their original positions, so when you hit play it is the exact same, well I see it like that with Time Travel. When you go back to this morning persay, Everything else also realigns. Like the Earth reverts back to its same postition, revoltion around the sun, angle to the sun, and everything else. even the guy across the street working in the convenience store and his customers reset themselves to their exact same postions as it was at that time. And of course, no one knows the difference except the one that made it happen, and a select few that are special in that way.

anyway, that was page 4 with add ons, and the second half of Page three. I have to go do some housework now.
