yeah I did considered that, that's also why the past. imagine you go 20 yrs in the future, stay there 24hrs, and then go back; then you will live 20 yrs riaking to subconsciously changing the future outcomes, and as I know I am, I would constantly asking myself if I am acting differently from how I originally would without having been in the future once alrewsy. On the other hand visiting the past, since we said you have only 24hrs, you would have less time to fuck up, but of course, what you said about small alterations is a valid point, and I would apply it also in the visiting the future options, as you would modify also the future of that future from that moment on... 🤔👀

Exactly that's my point about travelling to the future 🌝 If the future is good then nothing you do in the present should change that outcome because you will just be you, although yes I agree there would be years of overthinking to ensure you get there like that haha (I wouldn't travel 20 yrs though, maybe max. 5). But if I see I haven't learnt anything of what I should have learnt (considering the real present) then I will be able to at least try and change that supposed future or see where I should focus to grow myself further.

In regards to changing the future, passed the moment you travel, I totally agree also any small alteration may change it but, although it wouldn't be my intention at all, I wouldn't mind either cause then you come back in the present which isn't affected by a change in a potential future yet 🌝

Do you think travelling to the past would help you understand things better about yourself?

I don't know, because I also would prefer not to know before where I am heading to. My mind works about thinking always on different and various scenarios and elaborating their possible outcomes intuitivly following my perception and analysing the present through a process of past experiences.. and probably that's why I would like more to visit the past, and yes as you said, i think would help me understand things better about the present me, since I could make a comparison about I had react in the past, determined by how I had reacted amd felt at the time, and the 'present me', so I could evaluate the progress also (if there are in first place), so I could change the trajectory, or adjust it, to the purpose of creating a future where I am more comfortable and at peace with myself.
