If you could bring back the past...

If you could relive any part of your life, when would it be and why. I thought about this question a lot as I am 52 years old and I think that the year I met my husband even though he is my ex husband now for many years was the happiest year of my life. We were both young and we loved each other. We made some wonderful friends together, he introduced me to a different culture, west indian, I ate the food, learned the dance and even danced in the carabana fest parade in montreal. I got married the next year and had my son. It was truly the best years of my life. What was yours?

If I could bring back the past, I would not marry my husband now, so as not to suffer much. If I could bring back the past, perhaps I would marry the real love of my life.

If I could bring back the past, I believe I would bring back my dad. I lost him when i was 12 years old and my life has not been the same since. It has actually gotten worse and it stays that way because I just cannot seem to enjoy any of it without him around. My husband tries to get me to go do things that I used to do with my dad, but it just isn't the same. I am 35 years old now and still waiting to enjoy some part of my life. The best years of my life is difinitely with my husband now, but I keep wandering if will take him home before me. I sure hope not because he is all that I have left in this world other than my daughter. I would defnitely want to relive my childhood with my dad.

If I could bring back the past, I want to go back when I and my bf were younger. There were so many things that we weren't able to do that I thought we should have done. We could have made the relationship more meaningful. We're doing great now but I just want to relive the past. The happy memories.

If I could bring back the past i would explore my life some more. though I love my husband who was my boyfriend for 3 years before we got married, I would have tried having other boyfriends and not let him be the center of my existence, I would have tried working in a far away country as a single woman with ambition to fulfill. But still i would still marry my husband and bear the same children that we have and never never regret this as this is the reason for my being here on earth.

It is impossible to get the past.Only sweet memories make us hapy, we could not be back to our child hood which the era of golden days. wewere with our mother and father and brothers and sisters. we play happily we live without burden, restrictions, controls,or harassments. simply eating and playing and sleeping. If i were given the boon of getting the past,I opt for my early child hood.

I don't want to do anything for myself, but there is many a things that I wanted to do for my mom and dad, but i can't do anything for my dad now, as he is no more with us... only if I was able to do something for him... I would have been much satisfied from my life...

I think if I could relive any part I would say it would have to be when I was around 19 and working on the road OR the yr I met my hubby at the club cause biz was booming then and we all had a blast!

First time i met my ex boyfriend (he already passed away), we spent 1,5 years together. That's a wonderful time in my life, went out together, his faith to God make me learned so many thing, his family is so nice to me. I wish i can love him more than that time.The time that we know he got cancer, i lost half of my life. I can't think about anything. Now he is part of me and my life. Never forgot him and the moment that we share together. He is a wonderful man i've ever know God bless you

I am just 20 years old now. Many life experience that I have passed. If I can bring it back, I will choose the scene when I was 4 or 5. It was very nice when I waited my father went back from his office, brought me very funny toys.

It was the day I broke my ex's heart. If I could do it over I would and do it completely different. Even though I am happily married I think back on how hurt he must have been and it still naws at my heart.

I think I will relieve my Fourth year High school days. It was the year where I had the most fun being a teen-ager. I also got a once-in-a-lifetime academic achievement that really solidified my desired path in life. in this year I also learned how to stand-up when I am right (even with teachers) and step forward when i want something to be done. i also learned the values of leadership, friends and love.

If I could bring back the past, I would go back to when I was a baby girl so that I could be with my grandpa...
