Hi again!
If you could be given the chance of living your life again, what could you change about your life in the most helpful way?
When we are young we don't think about the future and what the destiny might bring for us. Today, I stop and think for a split second and realized that if I could go back I would make more mistakes to learn from them but would that be helpful at all?
I talk to people at times and they say that in life there is no right or wrong, that you are what you are because of the mistakes you made and influences you had.... but if we belive in this, would our lifves be better, satisfied, content?
It is hard to get older and realized that you have made really bad choices in your life. There is no way we can go back and change anything but if we could would it make any difference? you would not know for sure... would you?
Take care!

Nothing!
I think I am living a life that is good as it is meant to be. Joys sorrows, pain that I have caused and suffered was meant to be!
I think the creator has made a wonderful world for us to live and learn from. Every error, every happiness, every pain suffered, caused, joy given & shared has a lesson behind it, which goes to improve life. If I were to change anything at all will I be the same person, and remember, that the effect of every action that one does ripples through time, affecting known and unknown people, so I wouldn't like to make any changes, becasue I don't know how even a changing a bad deed from the past by to a good action could harm others.
Life's Lovely ! Love & Live Life!

I would take back every wrong thing I have ever done to myself and my parents. I would keep good credit because i am learning that your credit is everything.. I would do better in High school. I would go away to college... I don't have any children and that is one thing that i would not change. I see that having kids is something that i am not ready for. I love kids don't get me wrong, but they are very expensive... I would just get my life back.. I would live according to GOD's Plan for me... I would not be stuck in a ten year dead realtionship, i can tell you that much

To wish about changing the past is only wasting the present. You get as many second chances in life as you want, and the beauty of reality is that you can always start over. Instead of saying "If only," say "next time."

I wouldn't take out all the college loans I did. I was foolish and went hog wild with the money. I bought clothes, went to eat in fancy restaurants and didn't save any. Now I have to pay it back. I am going back to school and took out another loan, this time only for as much as my classes and books are.
Another thing I would do is stick up for myself to my abusive family--I wouldn't let my aunt get away with what she did to me. She is mentally ill and always verbally abused me.
I would have to know what I know now in order to do these things.

I would do more things I enjoy. I was so wrapped up in trying to find the meaning of life. I even studied to be a priest. I love dating and finally found a great wife who helps me in that search. I would not be so serious and would have developed more meaning full relationships.

Since I can not control what others have done to me, I would change the way I have reacted to their doings. That is, I would move on faster and let it hurt me less, realizing the ones that hurt you are the ones with the problem and not you....

I would learn to overcome my shyness as fast as I could so I wouldn't missed out on so many things.

I have nothing to change and I'm contented for what I am and what I have.
