Do you often find yourself lost in a daydream? What do you dream or think about? Missed opportunities - what could have been , what might have been ? Thoughts of a past romantic interest - and the good times spent together. Do you ever dream about going back in time and being able to change some things in your past? Or there are no regrets in your life?. I often dream about being a very successful athlete. If I could go back in time I would train from an early age and become the fastest female sprinter.! Dream on.

I often daydream that I am somewhere else, a place with no cares or worries. I wish I could go back and change everything in my life with the knowledge that I have now.

If only I knew then what I know now - that kind of feeling.

@Kandae11 Exactly. We should be wise in our youth and child rearing days and foolish when we are old. But it is the other way around.

@akalinus Unfortunately yes. The mistakes made in our youth can mess things up for the rest of our lives.

Not anymore. I used to want to change things but my past is what has made me the person I am, and it put the people I know now in my life. I do daydream but its for the future. A new life for me in my fifties but I still feel so younger. What I would have liked to have done was took dance lessons because I love to dance and I would have loved to have been an attorney, but what the good lord gave me ain`t to shabby.

I think you'd be an excellent sprinter. I'm happy with how life turned out, but would have had more children.

In the words of Edith Piaff song. "Je ne regrette rien". 'I regret nothing'. There is no point beating yourself up about what could have been or what should have been. Be positive about the past and look for what the future may hold! The day dreaming for me is thinking about wishing I were on holiday!

Continuous daydreaming can't be good. One must get back to reality after a few minutes.

Many times I find myself daydreaming about something. Usually it is about things I wish I could do, or things I want to do or should write about but not sure how they are going to happen and if they are really meant to be.
