If you had a chance to change your past, would you?

Or would you just keep it the same? Is there anything specific that you would change in your past or just in general? For me, the only thing I would change is not treating my parents badly when I was younger. We have a great relationship now, but from about 13 to 18, I was a horrible person to them. Other then that, I wouldn't change a thing.

There are things in my life and in my past that I do not particularly like or I thought that I made a bad choice, but I would NEVER want to go back and change my past. Everything I have ever done and that has happened to me, has shaped me into the person I am today. I believe that everything that happens in our lives, big or small lead us to where we are today. We all make bad choices at some stage in our lives and as long as we learn from them, they are not mistakes.

Some times I do think about my past and how things didn't always go so well. Either the things I did, or things someone else may have done to me. Then I think, had I not experienced all that I have, I may not be where I am today. I think everything we do and experience is a learning experience. We are constantly learning, even when we are 80.

Exactly. It is hard to imagine what it would be like if you didn't experience that or if you did something different huh? Of course that would change your course in life complelty!

If I knew then what I know now, you can bet your bippy I would change things. I think we all are horrible between those years, not just to our parents but to the world. I wish I could have been smarter when I was younger and not so strong willed.
