Description

If Only Suomi is a story of love through time. At first thought, the difference between past, present and future may seem obvious. The past has happened, the present is now and the future has yet to come. Second by second, our future becomes our past. That is if time is linear and we travel in a straight line. But what if we could travel in time, your past can become your future or your future can become your past? What if your future could become your past? What sort of paradox could we create? How careful would one have to be to avoid even wiping oneself out of time altogether? What if you went back in time and fell in love, then had to return to the present, leaving your love behind? What if you could travel back and change your past to change the present and your future or even to live your life a second time? This is a story of how the future changed the past, when Al from 2028 travels back to 1972, just for three days. This is a science fiction story and a romance, for Al falls in love in 1972 and then has to return to 2028 without his beloved Suomi. Will they ever meet again? Time can sometimes work wonders.Most books are considered to be fiction or non-fiction or a combination, written before or after the events therein. Those are either historical, which can include a lot of speculation and guesswork; simply made up, futuristic, speculative, prophecies or wishful thinking. This book is all of that. It's questionable when exactly it was written. It is clearly written after events in the author's life, but both before and after the present day. in 2020, on our calendars. It includes memories and dreams, prophecies and wishful thinking. In fact, some sort of time travel. If only in the mind. So what is the difference between dreams and memories? We can have memories of dreams and dreams of memories.We can have dreams within dreams.What is the difference between reality and illusions or imagination? Dreams can seem very real and what we normally call reality can often seem unreal. Ancient religions tell us that the world is nothing but an illusion, just at twinkle in the eye of the Creator, a cutting from the fingernail of Krishna, 'Maya'." All the world's a stage. And all the men and women merely players." wrote William Shakespeare.As children we sang "Row, row, row your boat, Gently down the stream, Merrily merrily, merrily, merrily, Life is but a dream."Modern-day scientists may tell us that the whole Universe and everything around us, even our own bodies, is made of subatomic particles, too small to see with the naked eye, and waves, that sometimes it may be a particle and sometimes a wave, wave-particle duality and, according to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, we can never say exactly when and where a particle is. They say that it is mostly space and that it is our senses and brains that put it all together so we can live in it. In other words; an illusion. Others even say that technically it is all holographic! We are not actually here at all!And some religious folk who believe in an all-powerful God may say that it was all made not so long ago, to look like it is much older, like a film set or a game of Dungeons and Dragons. Then there are dreams within dreams.
