knowing what you know now...would you do it? I'd have to say yes. There are certain things that I would change, and some that I wouldn't, and some that I would change just slightly. Post your thoughts

A good question! I think many people would answer with a hasty affirmative. I would not change a single second, unless it was a word spoken in haste or something like that. I cannot say I had an ideal childhood. In fact I do not have even one happy memory. I was physically abused by an older sister. I was emotionally abused by my father and sister. I was mentally abused by my sister and step father. I was sexually abused by a step father and physically, mentally and emotionally abused by a step father. Because of the mental abuse I had no friends throughout my childhood. Life changed for me at 22 years of age. Would I change anything? No way! I am thankful for everything that happened in my life. It made me what I am today. I would not change a thing - and just as well, seeing that it is an impossibility anyway!

hey this idea comes in my mind very often, i would like to change the college days of mine when i never used to study, since i believed tht those people need studies who cant learn the lessons in one shot!!!once u read it u must learn was my belief, so i never used to take studies seriously and used to bunk classes almost everyday. now i regret for it a lot, i always feel so bad tht i ddnt study hard and could not make a good career for me. if god gives me the yrs back i will prove to be a GOOD STUDENT.

I would not change anything that happend in my life. I would relive it just like the original. There is a reason I went through and did everything that I did. There is no reason for me to change anything.

The answer to ur question without thinking is "yes I would surely like to change certain things in my past".....but i wouldnt...i found out that things which i hoped didnt happen happened for the good....many things which i despised did happen...but i realised later that it happened for my good..So no I would never like to change things...i believe there is a certain good in everything evil that happens(well i do not mean u should let bad things happen if u r in a position to stop it)
