Preview for a longer story

     Hey all, this is Moonlit, don't have a full story this week but what I do have is a sort of preview for a longer story I want to start doing.  Here's the concept, we've all had moments in our life where we look back and say 'man I wish I could have done X differently'.  For some of us there are pivotal events in our life that have impacted the entire course of our life from that point.  As they say, hindsight is 20/20.  It's something that you develop as you get older but you never have an opportunity to utilize it.  That's what this story is about, hindsight.  The story will be about a man who is utterly miserable, his life has gone nowhere and he constantly reflects back to a pivotal event in his life.  He wonders if his decision at that event would have impacted his life in a better way.  This is set in the near future and there is a company that sells a product, this product is an absolute commodity.  That product is hindsight.  The company will allow our main character to go back in time to that pivotal event and with the gift of hindsight, see how it effects that timeline of his life.  He can preview the different timelines for free and for an absurd amount of money, he can choose one to be his permanent timeline.  Will he choose another timeline?  What impact do his different decisions have on his life?  Would you alter your own timeline?  Give your thoughts below if you're so inclined.
