hi there. there are some regrets that i have in my life and i wish i can turn back the time and relive my life. my friends told me to stop looking back and just move forward. hehehe... but i think what's in the past contributes mainly to who and we are today. how about you?

Oh there are many things I would change if I could turn back the hands of time. I would redo my entire high school and college experience quite differently. I used to dwell on the past, and from time to time I still do but I try not to worry about it because there is nothing I can do to change the past. So I pray and concentrate on the present and the future. Making the best of the worst. Making lemonade when life throws you lemons so to speak.

yes, your friend was right. stop looking back and just move forward. of course what happened in the past contributes to who and we are today. but that has happened already. we own only the present time, not the past or even the future. whe have only now. so just enjoy you now properly, don't bother about your past and future.

I think everything did happen for a reason. I am satisfied with whats going with my life their are mistakes I made, but moving on, is what's important. However if I could turn back time. I could have had taken a different course, I should have had taken a course that is what i like and that is related to my interest. I should have had taken a noble course. I find it hard to enjoy what i am doing right now. And the only thing I can do is simply make the best out of it.

If I had some of the experience and knowledge that I have now I would.

If it weren't for my kids i would say yes. Especially if I could go back knowing even part of what I know now. But even without any extra knowledge I would give it a shot. Not that anything has turned out terribly bad, but I enjoy life and living more of it would be pretty cool. However, since there would be no promise that I would end up with the family and kids I have now I wouldn't do it. They are worth too much. Maybe when they become teenagers I might have second thoughts about that. If I am here when it happens I will let you know.
