If you were give the chance to return to and relive a one and only moment/decision/period of your life would you choose something to relive for the fresh memory, or would you change it for a different outcome? |

I think things happen for a reason. If I were to go back and change things from my past I would not have the amazing people and things I have in my life now.
I've had some shit times along the way, but they were worth it for what I have now.
I would relive those amazing moments again. |

There are lots of things I would have changed along the way, but if I did I wouldn’t be the person I am today, and more importantly I wouldn’t have my son !
So although hindsight is a wonderous thing, who’s to say making a different choice would have lead you to a better place. Could you be without what you have now in your life ?
I certainly couldn’t, so we take the rough with the smooth and do the best you can  |

"The things that happen to us shape us
Sometimes not allways for the better."
This is very true, and why I think the question itself is not as simple as some think.
It is why I can't decide if I would change something or not.
You will find there are very few people who have had some truely traumatic experiences in their past, despite being strong now would would give anything to not to have been through it.
People who are strong after traumatic experiences are so on spite of what happened, not because of what happened.
Here I go derailing my own thread haha |

I've had some pretty traumatic things happen to me/around me, especially as a child, but the only thing I wish I could change was the birth of my first child and the first 3 months of his life. I wish I could go back and relive it with the knowledge and experience I have now, because my intense fear and the trauma of the event got in the way of that beautiful little boy's introduction to the world. The disparity between what it could have been and how it actually unfolded is huge and I suspect his emotional difficulties now have their roots in his beginnings. |
