Been thinking lately
If you could go back in time and change a few things, would you? How far back do you go, if at all? Do you go back to eliminate an embarrassing part of your past, would you not say something you actually did say, or would you speak up when you didn't? Would you step up to prevent or allow something to happen? Would you pay more attention to others? Would you try to get to know someone better, or at all? Would you let someone else get close, or push someone away? Would you act upon that missed opportunity? Would you try to be healthier? More focused? Would you choose a different career path or even a different set of friends? Remember, the things we have done in the past define, for good or for bad, who we are today. That being said, what would you do? Me, I can honestly say that I would change a few things, not a lot. I would have a lot of the friends I have lost back in my life, change a few childhood memories, I would have stayed in college the first time instead of finishing years later, I would take more chances, and I would pay more attention to others. I would also try o have more confidence in myself. I missed a lot because I never thought I was good enough for something or someone. Looking back, some things were obvious, but then....I was as blind as a bat. I missed a lot back then, and am sorry for it. But will changing my past still allow me some semblance of what I have today? You never know. Maybe, maybe not. But this would be one opportunity that I cannot turn down. Just being honest!!
