Prompt #1: What if...?


"What if...?" Powerful words, these are.

What if I had turned left instead of right? What if I had stayed home from school that day? What if Romeo had gotten Friar Lawrence's note in time? "What if" is the sound of sighs and disappointments, or maybe it's sometimes the tune of hope-- what if I win Publisher's Clearing House? What if he really does like me? What if she says yes when I ask her to the prom?

But let's go further...see where you can go with the quote from one of my favorite writers and directors, Woody Allen.

  1. Woody Allen's Quote," What if nothing exist and we're all in somebody's dream," is kind of crazy itself. If nothing really existed and we were all in somebody's head, who heads would we really be in? Would we be in the mind of God? As his test subjects of what life would be when he wakes up or what life is going to be in the future when he wakes up? Could we be in the minds of ourselves and asleep this whole time in a transparent coma and when we die we come out of the coma into our actual reality?
