If You Can Go Back To The Past, what would you have done differently?
If you can go back to the past to fix something, which stage will you go to? I would have studied well and enjoyed it as I do now. What about you?
After writing you can look at your present life and you may do things differently so that you should not regret when you leave this world and stand in front of Jesus the judge.
There are many things I wish I could change, but as far as actually going back to change it I would do nothing. I would be concerned that it would change the life I have at this moment in time, who I am today and the way my life was lived out. I grew up poor and wound up with the wrong crowd for a long time, doing things I should have never done, but those things sculpted me into the man I am today. I have no regrets about what I have done, because you can not dwell in the past what is done is done, and I know that Jesus and God himself are a forgiving power. When the time is right I will ask for my forgiveness and if my times end before I would take my judgement whatever it may be.
I'm kind of curious why you chose to put this question under the category of "Gender and Relationships" - "Romance" and then mention Jesus judging. hmmmm
Nevertheless if I could change anything it would have been to put 100% of my energy into pursuing my dreams during my (youth).
"Youth is wasted on the young." - George Bernard Shaw
The longer one delays the more risk they take on as they're likely to have less energy and more obligations to weigh them down.
I would have tuned in deeper to God and less to the opinions of others, which is the secret to liberation. God in the beginning, God in the middle, God in the end. Everything else is temporary and irrelevant.

What would you have done differently 20 years ago?Sometimes I hear people say things like, "Only if I knew what I know now", or "If I was that age again I would be...", "If I was you now I would be..." etc. I am curious to what people have regrets about....

Well, not just WHAT, you can also say, WHY would that be 'the ONE thing' you could change about your past? It may be an incident, a behaviour, an attitude, a day or a night..simply anything!

What would you change If you could get a "do over" on a relationship in the past?If you could go back in time and change something you did in the past for a different outcome, what would it be and why?

Are you at peace with your past or would you give anything for a "do-over"?
