If you had a chance, just one chance, to go back........?

and fix something you did wrong in life would you? Would you actually make that change or just do it all over again? Please be thoughtful about this.

    It is never too late to try...........about anything involving family or relationships. Then you wont blame yourself for not at least trying to fix things. And whether they forgive you or not at least you know that you tried.

    I've often pondered this very same question and I believe everything happens in life for a reason. Sure there are many things I would like to change but if I did what would happen? Would I be where I am today? Would I be who I am today? etc. You see, this opens up even more questions with no real answers. who's to say if the slate was wiped clean that I wouldn't make the same exact mistakes again? We make choices for a reason right or wrong.

    Yes absoloutly. I hate the fact that I can look back and see what went wrong and how easily it could have been avoided without having any power to change it whatsoever. The worst thing is you never really know how great things could have been and spend so much time "what if-ing" about how things would be now if youd only been wise enough to make the right decision in the first place.

    If I could change things I'd do it in a heartbeat.

    If i was willing to do it again then i guess i wouldn't consider it to be wrong. If i consider it to be wrong i would never do it again if i had the chance to make it right then i would most definitely do it right by all means. Mistakes or wrong things can only be done again when Someone has no morals or feelings. If i could do all my wrongs right i would in a millimeter second and they are not that bad, but still even if i hurt someones feeling i would go back and make it right.

    One thing I really regret doing is sleeping with this guy in college that a really good friend told me she really liked, who was actually stringing her along. I was drunk and one snowy night after a party, I let him come home with me.....When I woke up the next day...I felt lower than scum.....I dont even know if she ever found out, I kind of withdrew from the whole situation. I would go back to that night and tell the guy goodnight and leave him right there at that party.. and the sex was really terrible and not worth losing such a good friend.

I Hope all your answers help to solve you curiosity.make a change in our every day life be their for people places & things.

    Well the only change that I could really make that would effect my life in any real way would cost me my daughter. So no, knowing what I do now and having the love of my daughter I would never go back and change it.

    I rescently had a car accident on the 1st of Decemeber. I would have looked left again before making that left hand turn.

    I would give up everything I have now just to go back and spend more time with my parents.

    Many people take their parents for granted. They won't be around forever!

    :(
