What if you could change history? Would you change it or leave it as is?

Where do you think and how different would your life be if a certain event/s hadnt happened?

A certain event/s that changed your life?

Whether it (the event/s) was good or bad or something simple or serious.

Can you imagine how different your life would have been if it hadnt happen

Would you if you could go back and change your history or leave it as it is?

That is a good question. Sure there has been bad s*** happen in my life. But even the real bad stuff, has helped me, as its our mistakes that we learn from, more so than our successes.

Sure, if I could take what I know now and go back, I would jump at the chance.

But if I were to go back, and to go back to what limited knowledge I posessed in the past, I would probably make the same mistakes again.

Of course people can think of things they would love to change in there lives.

For me, I wish I lived somewhere else growing up and would have stopped myself as a child to cause my medical condition. But when you really think about it, if I didn't live in the same place I wouldn't have had the experiences I've had (which have helped make me who I am) and I would be a way different person. Same goes with my medical condition, who know's if it would have surfaced without my intervention as a child? Who's to say if you would meet the people you were meant to meet or have a different medical outcome if you change one or more aspects of history? Changing history could make your life worse, maybe you would die earlier in life or something even worse would happen? That's why I'm glad we aren't able to go back and change anything.

So although it's tempting, I wouldn't change anything. I don't think humans were meant to go back in time and change things cause I think we would probably screw everything up.

I agree with you, why change history? It led up to you!

Changing one thing could lead to disastrous results or a blissful life. You could never know. If I could, I would change everything about myself. I think I wasted too much time on fruitless endeavors. I would love more, and take more time to enjoy the beautiful things and people life has to offer.

No changes. I do have regrets but can't tell if I wouldn't make those same mistakes.

I would not like to change anything but it is tempting, there are a few movies I would not go and see. Ishtar springs to mind.

Are you meaning global history like the coming of Hitler or do you mean my personal history?

Like my current motto below (taken from the game "The Line" but concerning a military assault and not 'Life' ) I would have been much more recluse and never ran towards the world idiotically with passionate, motivated, heart and arms stretched wide.

No.

...well maybe I should have started staking @floydgirrl and @DiscordTiger sooner... but other that... no... nothing to change.

I would not necessarily change things, but I would like the chance to talk to my younger self and tell myself to do a few things differently, and not to worry so much... and give up anger earlier... and tell myself that "too much sex, drugs and rock'n'roll" is a meaningless phrase.

Wow got 2 points taken off for saying the word "sex". As if sex is some bad word.
