The delete button

Oh the delete button, what a powerful, amazing thing you are. Located on the keyboard amongst so many others yet the one that can create the most havoc or save me. What would life be like if we had a delete button for other parts of our lives? Would people be using you to wipe parts of their lives away? Would I use you for that purpose? Ther have been movies made about using TV remotes that suddenly giving them the power to mute others or rewind parts of their lives, pause scenes but why would we want that power.
I am a religious person and believe that my life is going ot His plan so whenthese thought senter my mind it scares me for I know they are not right. I am not doubting Him just for clarification; that is not what this is about. I am just batting around an idea for a story about a person that has a delete button and can use it to delete mistakes. I can imagine the lessons to be learned.
We all have used this button more times than we probably care to admit and we all have probably wished that we had a delete button that we can use at certain points in our lives. It sort of reminds me of the "easy" button commercials. We all that in life there is no such "easy" button that we can push and things that we need just magically appear. I think mistakes and trails do happen for a purpose and that as we are told we may never understand why.
This story would be about a boy that has this button and whenever he makes a mistake, whether it be at home, with his firends, or at school he jsut deletes those events from the memories. Would he truly learn anything? Would things be as perfect as he thinks it will be? Hmmmm I will have to think about this story and perhaps as they form will share them.
Stay tuned.
