If you had an opportunity to change a moment in your past?

What would it be or would you leave it as it is, in the past?

I personally would not change any situation in my past because it has helped me to grow and be a stronger person today.

    If I changed one moment it would change my entire life. I've learned to much to want to change any part of my life. And there have been some really hard lessons, and painful as well. But there has also been much joy and laughter. And much love, especially now. So don't think I would change it, I'd be giving up my spiritual growth, not something I want to part with. Peace.

    There are a lot of things I've said I'd like to take back, things I did I wish I hadn't, things I didn't do I wish I'd taken a chance on. But all of those decisions are in the past, part of who I was at that moment in time.

    Everything I said, did, or didn't do has helped me to evolve into the person I am now and will help shape my decisions and attitudes for tomorrow. So I guess I would change nothing but if someone stood before me with that easy button it would be tempting.

    You're right. Past is past. But if I'm given an opportunity to change a certain past moment, it would be two things - to have a girl child (I have 2 boys) and purchase a landed property in a prime location about 20 years ago!

    Actually, yes, there is one. I can say there was one moment that I could have completely shifted my life from where it is now. Not necessarily for the better -- I'd still have been me, and the situation wasn't good either way -- but it would have been different. Still, if given the chance, I think I'd jump the other way.

    I would change the moment my ex-boyfriend felt like I didn't love him anymore. I would express my true feelings without holding anything from him. I sometimes think that things happen to you happen for a reason, this wasn't one of them. I have never wanted to change anything in my life until the moment my ex called it quits.

    I would NOT.. change anything.. I believe that every moment we live, brings us to this day. I would not be here...I would not have learned my lessons..and I would not be thankful for what I have if I changed a moment in my past!!

    I would not have waited to have another child. I love my only child dearly, but we waited to have another after he was born. we were going to wait 4 years and then have another. My husband had cancer and chemo and the works, and we were not able to have another. It has been 25 years, and I still say that is the only thing in my life I would have changed.

    Cause and effect.

    If you change something in thepast it changes the present, so you'd change something else. And so on, and so forth until you're content in your life, then you become passive because you have nothing to work for

    I don't think I would change anything... I regret nothing in my past. If you constantly look into the past you have no future.
