Absolutely...without hesitation. I would do it because I think I've made some very big decisions without enough thought and that has made me angry and bitter at times.
That's my first thought but when I actually really think about it maybe this is my destiny and maybe it happened the way God predestined it. Maybe changing my past would ruin my future.

If I had to the chance to rewrite my past, I would for sure take it! I don't have any regrets in my life but as I mature I realize now different ways I could have enhanced certain moments I've went through.

No because it is the accumilation of it all is what makes life so beautiful. For example going through some hard and troubled times only to come out the other end a new person with deeper insight and more of an open mind. Its like opening sunflower seeds. The reason they are so good is because the work it takes to get to the seed. If you just have a handful of seeds they would get old realy quick. If you have to do it yourself youc an eat them all day. So, no I wouldnt change a thing good and bad things happen to everyone just make it through the bad times and enjoy all the good times. "Lifes a garden.... dig it."

Everyone regrets decisions made in their past, yet to change anything that has happened would probably change the outcome of your life too, so NO! I wouldn't change anything - even the bad or sad events, because by experiencing them, I've learned new lessons and have become the person I am now - someone whom I really like (warts and all!)

Yes I would. There are things done or said that no matter how sorry I am, the consequences have been hard to live with. While it maybe true that we are the summation of our past experiences and that we should learn from them, there are still parts of it that are better left undone especially if they involved other people.

I see no point in rewriting anything of the past. Whatever happened, happened, whatever will happen will happen. Why to lose our sleep over something that happened in the past?

In the back of my mind I say it would be nice to have things different but I know who I am today is due to that past, so the answer is no I'm ok with who I am, and the parts that aren't ok are for me to try to change in the future....

Yes, I would. I ended an argument by telling my father to stay out of my life. I did not take into consideration that this might be the last time I spoke with him. He died suddenly a couple of days after that and I never had the chance to make things right between us.
