What if?

Everytime I'm alone and have nothing to do, my mind wanders from one place to another. It takes me to a million of thoughts that are indeed overwhelming. One of which is thinking of the "what ifs" in life.

Just so you know, I was reading some articles of my dearest friends here in the platform when I passed by my dear friend @Jijisaur 's article where she tackled about the what ifs in life (you may read it here). I honestly am inspired by the article and decided to write my own what if's.

You see, I'm quite emotional these days, perhaps it's because of my ever fluctuating hormones; as fluctuating as the cryptocurrency market these days. Howbeit, no matter how much I wanted to control it, I have no control so it leave me with a choice to simply go with the flow.

The what ifs that I have in mind, most of the time, make me feel down, but sometimes make me happy especially when I think about a certain situation that becomes a blessing in disguise.

So much for that, let me share some of my what if's in life, perhaps we have the same what if's right?

1. What if I'm rich?

I was not born rich, so I can't help but wonder, what does it feels like to be rich? What does it feels like to buy the things that you want in a snap? What does it feels like not to think of the bills monthly? Or even the obligations that involve money? I wonder.

Not to mention, as someone who's just average in terms of financial capacity, I am still having a hard time living life due to the responsibilities that I have. I may not be the breadwinner of the family, but it seems like I become one since when I got my job, my family ran towards me and asks help to be free from other debts. It's not that I have no choice, but I want to help my family. I could say that it's not easy, but I guess helping your family member means a lot already.

Going back, I just wonder how it feels like to have a lot of money. I even wonder what will be my qualities if I was born rich.

2. What if I was not born?

I honestly thought of this before. What if I was not born, what would be the path that my family was taking right now?

Just so you know, my mother was supposed to finish her studies around 1998. She already have my sister and my brother that time; they are 8 and 7, respectively. But as she decided to pursue and finish her studies, that's when she realized that she was pregrant on me.

After hearing that story from my grandmother before, it left me wondering, what would the life of my parents be if I was not there? Will my mother be able to finish her studies? Perhaps, my mom would have a better job these days and so on.

3. What if I can teleport?

This is one of my exciting thoughts of what if. What if I can teleport?

Ever since I realized what teleport is, I always wanted to know how it feels like to teleport. Who knows, one day it will become real with the latest advancements soon, right.

These are just some of the what if's I have in life. There are actually more of it store in my mind. I might share them soon.

What about you? What are your what ifs in life?
