Bohemian Trilogy ( Carpe Diem. Memento Mori! -Seize the Day, Remember we are Mortal)

Musings of the Past

What if, by chance, you found a silver key to a door. To a door that can unlock a path into your past.
Would you keep the key?
What if the path allows you to undo all your past wrongs, unwrite all your past regrets, unravel all your past pains
Would you treasure the key?
What if by undoing the past, you no longer love the ones you love now, you no longer have the friends you have now and you no longer treasure what you treasure now.
Would you still be you?
Would the past remain behind the door?.

Musings of the Future

What if you were shopping round Sim Lim Square and a salesman in a dark suit and dark shades stepped up and offered you a thumbdrive.
“This thumbdrive carries all detailed information of your future. Every single instance, every single detail is stored in this thumbdrive. You would know your whole future.”
Now what if he offers to sell it to you and he does remind that the future cannot be changed even if you knew in advance?
Would you buy?
What if you bought it and found out you would lose all your loved ones, one by one, and eventually you would die alone.
Would you regret buying?
What if you bought it and found out you never had the chance to say goodbye to your loved ones becuz you passed on before your time.
Would you ask for a refund?
What if we know our future and yet may never be ready to accept it?

Carpe Diem, Memento Mori!

What if you were walking along a second hand store at Bras Basah and you came across a used little brown book.
What if the title has the words "Happiness" and it is not a Chinese Wedding Invite? Would you be interested to browse?
What if you browse through it and it tells you only in the present can we find our own utopia? Would you still live in the past?
What if the book suggests only in the present can we find our own happiness? Would you still worry about the future?
What if the book ends with a line that says :
"Carpe Diem, Memento mori"

(Seize the day, for Remember we are mortal!)
