my theory of time travel

the story book theory

The story book theory works on the premise that the time traveller becomes all knowing of his own lives events in the past

As he changes the events of the past as he knew them and time changes he retains the original memory of how events occur as well as the new memories allowing him to stay a head of the time flux

He would be partially excluded from the time flux because he isn't in his present to be changed but still is affected because he now lived differently allowing him to know a possible future that once was the actual future

Eg john stole his cousins girl friend and they eventually married which led the cousins to never be friends and they grew in to adults who hate each other john goes back in time and stops him self from stealing the girl friend he would retain the memory of hating his cousin and marrying the girlfriend but also the memory or growing up as best friends with his cousin and marrying a different woman both futures are correct in his mind

He has gained ultimate knowledge up to the point where he went back in time he is able to know all the events that happened in both times

The grandfather paradox is solved with my supplemental theory called the uncle theory

If john goes back in time and kills his grandfather he creates partially voids his own existence how ever he is proven to exist thus a secondary figure becomes his grandfather for example johns grandfathers brother this man then becomes johns grandfather in this johns physiology and even his name may change how ever this slightly altered person "James" retains all the knowledge of his dead grandfather and the new knowledge of his grandfathers brother being his grandfather
