A happy starship. A jazzy, happy starship.
Do you ever have those times when you look back on your life and wonder just what the hell you were thinking sometimes? If you could go back and do it all over, would you? What would you change? What would stay the same? Do you ever think you could go back with the knowledge you have now and change certain things about your life?

I'm in a funky mood right now.

There is one point in my life... I wish I had screamed. It would have saved me a lot of depression and hurt.


That said, I think I'm ok with how I've done things. But then I've always been a shy, reserved kinda girl.

Is okies snuffs, I'll always

If I could do it all again, I'd have never got married.

Saying that - my life's pretty good, in the big scale of things. I seem to always land on my feet, whatever happens.
 
I think everyone has regrets, no-ones life has ever worked out perfectly... but you never know how those decisions may have made things worse if taken the opposite way. I regret my own actions sometimes, and a lot of things I've said to people... but never regretted decisions. I am happy with who I have become on the inside.. and its due to a lot of the pain I have felt from making such wrong decisions.
 
Oh, I can totally understand how you feel. Sometimes I think that there are sooo many things I would've done differently...starting from the college I went to, to the relationships with a lot of people in my life..I think I would have changed my actions completely..and I realise now that the problem was in me - if i had been different in some ways, me personally, if i had been more self - confident, and sometimes even, less self-confident, my life in it's certain periods, would have been better...but I guess that's just how we all feel, regrets are quite natural. We learn from our mistakes. Life is not an experiment, and we can't try out a certain option, see how it goes, and then if it doesn't work, create the exact same circumstances and try again and again until it works out fine. You get one chance, and if it doesn't work out, the only thing you can do is not repeat it in the future, what's done is done.
Still, I can't say that I'm not satisfied with my life now. Actually I am, very, and sometimes I even think that if I actually had done those things differently, my life today maybe wouldn't have turned out so good. And just like Subby - "I am happy with who I have become on the inside"

There are a lot of things that if I had it all to do again, I'd do differently. There are also quite a few I'd happily do all over again, even though I went through a lot of hurt at the end. I've been in a funky reflective mood all week, looking back on my life. The only real choice you have though is to keep going forward, because there isn't a reverse gear in life.
 
Well, I've been in that mood the whole month..cuople of them actually
<


And you're right..nothing else to do but to go forward..although, I've been thinking this the past couple of months as well - there were many things I expected with anticipation, thinking how wonderful they'd be..and I was quite disappointed when they finally happened. So, I'm trying to enjoy the moment, instead of waiting for something to happen..it usually doesn't happen the way I thought it would. Am I making any sense? Never mind

I do look back and think what the hell was I doing but I have no regrets. Life is a learning experience after all. Any mistakes made I would assume you won't make again and so on...
 
There are a lot of situations I have gotten myself into that if I could do it again, I would avoid.

I do like what subby said though, and I, too, am happy with who I have become on the inside, and I know that if I had not put myself through all the crap that I did, and experienced the range of emotions that I did, I wouldn't be where I am today...
 
When I look back all I really see are mistakes.
Mistakes I made and were necessary to shape me into the human being I am now.

No, if I could go back in time and change certain events I would not, because those events, even tiny insignificant ones, combine to the one big event that is ME.

This is ofcourse, the rational part of my brain talking, my reptilian brain is screaming "you shouldve kissed amy when you had the chance dumbass"

To which my rational part replies "She would've broken up with us within a few weeks anyway, why don't we cherish the thought not the person.".

"stop using difficult words"

"Shut up."

There aren't allot of things I would do over in my life, though I might be speaking too soon. The only regrets I have is that I should have payed more attention in trigonometry class, and I should have made an effort to go out of my comfort zone in High School. With that being said, every one has something they regret if not now in later years, however, regardless of the outcome we can all learn from it to prevent doing it over again, thus having the same outcome.
