What if we didn’t have any responsibilities? What if time was reversed? What if we could talk to animals? What if on that fateful Wednesday, you hadn’t waved at that one girl who was actually waving to someone behind you?
We’re sure that you’ve been plagued by these questions, or questions similar to these, at some point or the other. This issue is all about those questions; the what-ifs in life, both big and small. Some what-ifs keep you up at night, some are perfect daydream material for boring classes, some give you a wistful feeling that goes perfectly with rainy evenings and ginger tea.
“What if?” is a question you might often find yourself asking regretfully, but we find it’s best not to dwell on those questions; to put it as succinctly (and awkwardly, but let your grandmother editors have their moment) as possible—YOLO. It’s much better to sit back and enjoy the world around you, or perhaps the numerous possibilities that lie ahead; not what could have been, but what could be. Imagine the what-ifs of a brighter future without polluted air and corrupt politicians and greedy capitalists! Keep the image in your mind, and let it take you places—starting with, perhaps, the recycling shop or the nearest climate strike.
That said, it’s time to delve into this issue and the minds of our writers, as they explore this month’s theme and other interesting issues.
Enjoy, and keep dreaming!
