Children: 4 yr old goof ball | Re: If u could go back in time? | | I will say that like Fallon I learned a whole lot from my bad marriage, and I know it is a big reason why I have such a great marriage now.
I've made more than my fair share of mistakes, and will be paying for a lot of them for the rest of my life. They were however learning tools that have made me a better person which in turn has allowed me to have a better life.
I still wish I could zip back in time to change a few things here and there but the 'Butterfly Effect' would occur changing where I'm at today.
I guess the good news is I don't have to ponder it for very long because it simply isn't an option. All we can do is learn from the past and try not to repeat the same mistakes. Lord knows I won't be putting my hand back on the X-wife hot burner.

Children: Brian, 22; Adrienne, 18: Amy, 15 | Re: If u could go back in time? | | I wouldn't change anything about my life. Sure, there are things that I wish hadn't happened, but all of those things worked together with the better things to make me into the person that I am today....and I happen to like her a LOT. Changing anything in my past would change my present, and I'd rather not take that risk.

Children: Luke James Hunt: 28 months old | Re: If u could go back in time? | | Well, EVERYTHING happens for a reason. And if we go back in time to change something that we didn't want to experience who's to say we learn from that mistake?
My choices were mine alone, and although some of them were bad, and some were extremly hard to deal with, they were still my choices and i have since learned from all of my mistakes, and still continue to make them.
So no, i wouldn't go back in time to change anything. |
