It depends what it is I said and who I said them to.
Sure there are things that Ive said and Id do any thing to take them back but then as I think about it, there are other things ive said and Id do again (I bet that makes me sound like a bad person, but really im not) because I was able to stand up for myself. Now that they are said I dont even look at those girls anymore and they dont look at me...Ive never been so much happier, its a far distance since I was in the class room being bullied every day. I never take what I said to them back, I KNOW they wouldnt take what they said to me so **** them!!
After all you cant like everyone and you cant expect everyone to like you!!

Its good to say sorry and to make an effort to make something bad good, but it needs prayer and careful thought to do that. Sometimes the past is better left buried and forgotten and rather to learn from your mistakes than to try and make them better. If you are living with regrets, write to each person you offended asking them to forgive you for hurting them and then move on. If your motive is to try and restore an old relationship from years ago, dont go there. Let go the past and rather look forward to the future and just never repeat the mistakes you made before. Thats the safest thing to do. Become accountable and confident and move with dignity and integrity. Speak when you need to. Avoid criticisms and bad mouthing at all costs. Keep far from those who do that all the time. Take risks without involving people and hurting others in the process. Become who you were esteemed to be. Read the book BE ALL YOU WANT TO BE BY JOHN MAXWELL as well as THE PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE BY RICK WARREN. Find your purpose and run with it.
Find out who you are and why God brought you here and how He feels about you. I hope this helps you and I wish you a wonderful future. Mayt God reach into your heart and grow the little seed he has for you into a beautiful plant with a flower that is so attractive it draws all the right things and people to it.

Although it's tempting to say yes, I would have to go with a no. I believe everything happens for a reason, even the bad. And to go back and alter something bad would have more long-ranging effects than you would ever have imagined (kind of like a butterfly effect thing). There are things that you learn through bad/regretful times that can NEVER be learned through good times. It makes you a deeper, more insightful, more complete person.

No, we all learn from our mistakes, and taking them back and wanting to not have done those things will have made my life a complete change. There is no telling where I would be if I didnt do the things I did, what life path I was on. You never know, and I think making changes and mistakes are apart of life and we all need them to learn from.

Maybe some things. But I think that you learn from your mistakes. Some of the biggest mistakes I have made have molded me into who I am now. And I am happy with myself.

of course i would..i have a number of them...but i wouldn't want to take all of them back only the major ones. because i think when i make a mistake...i get some knowledge from it to avoid a situation like that again.

Well although I have had some real foot in mouth problems, I think I would probably not change anything in my life because it made me who I am today.

of course anyone would. but in a sense, we do learn from our mistakes (hopefully) that's what make us grow in maturity. our mistakes and our good fortunes and sometimes luck. that is what shape up.
