I love this Movie of Adam Sandler, "Click". He has a powerful remote control which can control life as how the remote control works. You can use it but there's an equivalent karma on how will you use it. The movie has a good or shall i say great lesson for everyone of us, it tells us how to manage our time and life as well. Yourself has the power to do anything in your life whether it's good or bad, no one can control you what your future will look like. For me, I've done so many screw ups in my life. I have a dark past which always come to my mind and felt so many regrets. If i will be given the power to turn back time or be given that kind of remote control, i'll do it and use that power to change everything into a good purpose! I'll start it when i was in Grade 4 because that was the time when i fell out in the 5th Honorable mention in our class because i lose interest in studying and started to focus on bad nonsense things like playing unlimited, hanging out with my Bad-Influential friends, doing naughty stuffs and losing control of my Attitude inside the house and my family. And I've already tried drugs?! I've done so much trouble that my past is already attached to my personality. If that would really happen or came true, i'll give everything or anything in return just to use that kind of power.... =(

if it was possible for me to time travel, i think i would use it. yes, i'm pretty sure i would use it. i think that's pretty cool. although, i wouldn't use it to change a thing about my life. i am pretty contented with what have done and what i have achieved. human as i am i have made many mistakes. and those mistakes made me the man i am today. not only have i learned from them, i have profited from them. i would rather use time travel to go back to the really distant past in history. i would travel to jerusalem on the time of Jesus Christ. i would like to see him face to face, and hear his teachings personally. that would be great! then, i'll tell all my family and friends what he was like in person. either that, i can just travel to the distant future and see him face to face after life.

It depends on the day you ask me. Some days (like today) I would say that I'm very happy with my life and that everything happened the way it was supposed to. On other days, I would look back to a certain period in college when I made bad choices and wish more than anything that I could change a thing or two. I've decided that going back in time would be unwise, because I have a great husband and 2 adorable kids. Not to be overly dramatic, but they are my life, and I would be lost without them. Maybe I wouldn't know what I didn't have, or maybe I would have ended up even happier. Who knows. But I like where I am now!

I also have watched that movie and it has a good moral lesson in the end. Even if I have the chance to go back through time, I will not use that power. Why?
I used to have a hard life in my earlier life and it was really complicated... a very sad story to hear if you will ever know. Those hardships in my life that I have experienced has strive me to reach for my goals, has taught me a lot of lessons about life... has transformed me into a stronger and better person in life.

I believe that everything happens for a reason. We experience things in life, bad and good because it tells us something, make us learn things, appreciate people around us and so on. We have to have regrets, so we will know what to do the next time what we will do if ever the same thing happen again, or it would let us be a better person if we actually understand and accept that things will never be the same again, and move on.

Hi there jaysonDiwa, No, I am rather pleased with my lif as has turned out. Of course I have made some misstakes in my life to, but again, thos mistakes have only keept me developed and more experinced. That is why we make mistakes in the first place. You need to make mistakes to grow and learn. Ant to learn things are what life is about. The hole life you will learn new thins...it is the best school you have. So, No, I would not like to turn time back?

I love how my life has turned out. Loving boyfriend, everything
Then there are the days I kind of want to know what it would have been like if I went with another person I had lost. I wonder if I went down the cowboy loving, country music listening, honkytonking life, if I would be who I am today.
I love my life, just would like a glimpse of what could have been.
