If you had a choice, what would you "undo" and "delete"? what would you "bookmark"?

If you could do this you wouldn't really live at all. Life is life because it's real and we can do these kind of things.

If we had the opportunity. . .
-I would undo the times I told my sister I hated her and the time I told her to "F*ck off"
-I'd undo the times I slacked off from school instead of studying
-I'd undo all the times I just stood there and kept my mouth shut instead of letting a girl know I liked her ( which has happened all too often)
- I'd undo the times I held my tongue to my co-workers, and speak my mind instead.
-I'd undo my grandparents deaths
In the end, however, I think having the chance to undo all these things would be a very bad thing. Moments that we regret or wish we could change are very meaningful, as they give us life experience to learn from. Something we can later think about when we come into a similar situation to help us make the right choice.
With me for instance, in regards to the events listed above, I learned I should never be afraid to speak my mind, but I should do it more constructively. Also, I need to be able to accept when the people I love aren't around anymore. Death is a natural part of life, it's not something I should keep dreading or refusing to accept. Having learned these things, they have allowed me to become a better person.
If we could simply undo or delete every bad experience in life, we would become truly fragile, not to mention boring people. If every experience ended the way we wanted it to, and we lived our lives without even the slightest ounce of risk, what would be the point? I'd rather take life as it comes and keep on growing.

Good question indeed.
personally I think we don't have to delete or undo anything at all; the best way is get the best out of everything you did in the past.
This is how we should build our wisdom.
Have a nice day.

i wouldn't undo or delete anything accept life as it happens... if you were to be able to change your life and your mistakes would life really be worth living? Bookmarking life? lol you do that already that is merely just remembering the moments of life that made you laugh smile, shutter, cry, cringe, etc

It might make us worse, because we wouldn't try as hard to get it right the first time if we had endless do overs. If we just delete our mistakes we can't learn from them, and would be destined to constantly repeating them.
Our lives might seem easier, but we wouldn't progress very far. We would be stuck in the moment, and have no real history to judge ourselves by.

I think it would make things worse. We would not learn from our mistakes.
If I could un-do something it would be that I had a child with a man who is not capable of being a Dad. I would not change that I had my daughter, just change who it was with.
If I could bookmark something it would be the few moments where I felt completely happy with myself, both inside and out.
(Awesome question!!!)

we wouldn't get the most out of life if we pressed undo or delete on every bad move

There are some events I'd like to delete... have you ever seen "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind?" Deleting a person out of your memory could be beneficial, actually.

Despite some of the truly horrible things that have happened in my life, I wouldn't change anything. If I did, I would not have grown or learned from my mistakes. I would be a static blob.

maybe worst cause you will be tempted to do more wrong and the people around you may not remember but, you do. Like if you were to cheat on your partner and get caught. You undo it. Your partner wont know but you will.
