Yes. There are a lot of things that I would love to change about my past, I also think about the future a lot.

I don't dwell on the past at all, it's behind me. if I do refer to the past, it is only to remember the lesson I learned from going through it.

I try to stay in the present moment but sometimes I think of my happy childhood and family and loved ones and their memories

No I don't. It isn't worth it. Looking toward the future is much better. My mate dwells and lives on the past and it is torture to him and me. I just don't see the sense in it. It is past, done, done done.

I don't usually DWELL on the past, but I'm not one of those "history is bunk" people, either. As they say, history is doomed to repeat itself it is forgotten.
