if you have a choice to live your life again, will you still choose the same choices you have made in the past?
i think if that is to happen there will be some decisions in my life that i will make a bit of a detour. like the choice to just work and not study, it would have been greater opportunity if i have finished college. there are minor regrets in my life but overall i love what my life is right now. i feel blessed with my family, my cute son and my loving wife.
how about you, do you love your current life?or do you regret being in that situation?

I would not change anything major in my life but I think I would have omitted some of the errors I made when I was younger. I was quite wild in my younger years and as I have had a second chance at life after recovering from a serious accident I now have the opportunity to live a more unselfish lifestyle.

Thats a deep and heavy subject. Id still chose to live my same life, because it has been filled with so many different experiences. I mean, it takes the bad experiences in my life, to make me realize how good my life actually is. Without the bad, you cant have the good. Just like you cant experience pleasure without pain.

I have two takes on this:
If this means that I would be allowed to relive and reconstruct my life from childhood all over again, I would surely do things which I missed out on. Most as similar to yours except that being a woman my precious possessions are my husband and son and I am very happy and feel extremely blessed with life’s offerings.
But if this means that I would be born again then I would definitely not like to come back as a human being. I would like to be reborn as a small bird with a short life span.

This is something I think about a lot.. I think though if given the chance I wouldn't change anything. Not because I don't wish for things to have been different, I'm just to afraid that changing one thing could mess up a ton of other things. Who's to say that if I change something small it wouldn't effect something really big.. like having my kids, or meeting my guy? These are things I really wouldn't want to change and changing something little could effect them.

There are ALOT of mistakes that I had made when I was growing up and alot that I would like to change (and actually I thought about this for a VERY long time), but truthfully I wouldn't change one thing. Because that little pebble that may seem so significant could change EVERYTHING that you know and love.

given another chance i would be exactly on the same path that i chosen right now. i would have chosen the same choices and make same mistake that i did because that's where i learned my lessons in life and gone stronger as a person.
looking back in the past, i've had struggles and mistakes but all those makes up of what i am now and i love who i am now!
as my husband and i remembers where we were before it was a fulfilment now of what we have and what we are. before we were like parasites dependent of our parents and cant stand up on our own feet not earn a living for ourselves even though we got our own family but as time and situation molds us we became a fighter and a strong person to face what life has to offer.
yes i would love to keep my life the same if given a second chance

Well if i got the change to start all over there are a lot of things which i would or wouldn't have done so i would change that.
I really would have studied harder and would tell the one i loved so much that i loved him and that i never stopped loving him.But there are so many things which i would have changed also my own attitude when i was younger.But now everything is doing great.
