What Would You Do with a Wormhole?

First: Happy Birthday, Albert!

Second: Thank you Stephen,  Luanne, and Laura for imagining and organizing this clever hop: What would you do or where would you go if you could traverse a wormhole through space or time just once? One safe round trip passage. 

Third: What am I gonna do with my wormhole?

Since it's only one trip, I'd go to the time and place that would best prepare me for the long haul once I returned to here and now. So I'd go to Galilee about 28 A.D. I'd jimmy the wormhole to put me near the crowd that listened to Jesus deliver the Sermon on the Mount. I wouldn't understand the language he was speaking, though he might make it so I could, but even if he didn't, I think just hearing his voice speak those crucial lessons and watching the early Christians drink them up for the very first time would drive them into my heart in a deeper, more indelible way than they ever have been before. And that would be pretty cool. :)

wow, is it a one way trip or do we get to go home too?
seeing Jesus would be awesome, but I can wait to see him in heaven, for reals!

i've always wanted to hang out with mark twain, he's a hoot & i think they had indoor plumbing by then? (dealbreaker!)

Amen! That would be cool to see. And I'm sure He would make it so you understood. Going back to meet Jesus was an idea I toyed with for the blogfest.

That would be very cool to not just read His words, but to actually hear them. I love it!! I wish I had thought of it.

Have you ever been to Israel? I can imagine going there and seeing the sites would almost be like going back in time like that.

And cool idea about the Blog Blitz. :)

Hey! This is a fun game. That would be an amazing sight to see, just from all kinds of perspectives--both the history and the inspiration and the power. I can't even imagine.

Can I tag along? :D <3

That would lay all the conspiracy theories to rest -- you can come back and write a whopping bestseller!

Very cool idea! Would you take a smartphone and capture it to replay once you came back?

Interesting choice. I wonder if his words would be what we think they were - or something entirely different.

I'm sure He'd make sure you understood. Probably even look your way :)

I didn't do the blog hop but that was my first choice, too. I couldn't think of anything greater.

Great choice. And I know you'd be able to understand him, and he would know that you're there. Who knows? Maybe there were other time travelers there, too...

A good choice, and it seems to be one many writers share. Beware those Romans though, and Judas.

Cool idea. Personally I'd rather not go back in time because women didn't have many rights until recently. And some places I wouldn't want to go to in the future for this reason.

That would be a great experience and hopefully you'd be able to have your Bible with you to follow along if you couldn't understand.

Make sure you get a touch of even the hem of his garment to cure any ailments you may have!

I thought about that, too. But I'll get to see Him in eternity and didn't choose a Jesus wormhole, but something more personal. Thanks for your kind comment.
Nice to meet you, sister!

Having been to (21st century) Galilee, I'd really recommend it as a beautiful, peaceful area of Israel. It's amazing how calm and accepting people are up there, perhaps because of its history of having different groups living together peacefully. I'd love to see how Israel looked in those days, when the ruins were real buildings.

There was an infamous science fiction novel by Michael Moorcock in the late 1960s entitled "Behold the Man," about a man who travels back in time to see Jesus, to disconcerting consequences.

That would be fascinating to listen to. There are so many things in history that would be cool to see in trips back in time.

What a delightfully genuine and good-hearted response. I'm not a religious man myself, and I envy those whose hearts are lead by spirituality. Love your writing-- glad to have found this blog via the hop. I shall be purchasing your book when it is released. Best of luck!

I like your choice. This would be an awesome experience for sure.

I missed out on doing this Wormhole Fest, but I've been missing out on a lot of blogging things lately.

Book release day coming soon!

We're celebrating the release of Julie Flanders' The Ghosts of Aquinnah   and Lexa Cain's  Soul Cutter   with a Dreams Destinations blog hop. Aaand Lexa & Julie are hosting a great GIVEAWAY.  Visit either Lexa's blog or Julie's blog to enter and also to find the Linky list so you can travel to more dream destinations. It was unbelievably difficult for me to settle on just one place. I decided to make it somewhere I'd never been before...and then I decided to stop over thinking and just pick a place already...and I landed at Piazza San Marco in Venezia, or as we call it for some reason, Venice. (Does anyone know why we don't all call it Venezia?) I would stroll the square, sidestepping pigeons and saying buongiorno to people whose eyes met mine, not worrying about my sorry accent. I would have tickets for that evening's opera in my pocket and a caffe-flavored gelato in my hand. I'd be wearing a darling scarf I'd just purchased, arr
