If you had a chance to change or "fix" one thing that happened in your life... What would it be?

I’d like to fix it so that my bone marrow had been a perfect match for my mother, who died of Leukaemia in 1997.

I would not have mistaken the Ben Gay for Astroglide.

I’d liked to have had it that my mom had taken better care of herself so she wouldn’t have had so many cancers that killed her from sheer self abuse & neglect.

@TheLoneMonk OMG! I don’t even want to go there!!!

As I sit here and ponder, the only real answer I can give is nothing. I think that everything you do happens for a reason. I know it sounds cliche, but honestly, everyone should live their lives with no regrets. 420

I would’ve play hockey instead of volleyball/basketball/rugby. And I mean religiously. I liked the sports I played and I was good at them don’t get me wrong but think about it, The NHL is really the only team professional sport where you can be a 5’11 white guy that’s not a freak of nature, and still be good.

I should have left when the choice was presented. Instead, I surrendered control.

I would have fought back every time

@lynneblundell – Me too!

I would have not allowed the wishes of others to smother my dreams when I was younger. The time wasted doing what others wished could have been used to establish myself to where I am now at a much earlier age. But overall I do not think I would change anything else.

I do think I would have tried to step in and prevent a homicide- but likely would have been killed as well.

I would have done a better job managing my money.

Haha talk amongst yourselves

I would take back all those stuipddddd things I said when I was angry and in the heat of the moment. All those rash judgment calls I made. And I bet you things would be different. But, now, I can’t think like that, because hindsight is 20/20 and it’s really unhealthy, and I need to live in the present.

I quit football before my senior year, to play in a band. I still have dreams about football, and sometimes I feel like the the uncle in Nepoleon Dynamite.

My parents.

@Pol_is_aware: it’s Kip, right?

I wouldn’t have given up my dream of a Ph.D. for a boyfriend.

@aviona: Yep :)

Nothing; ones imperfections and regrets play as great a role in the construction of their reality as their accomplishments and that which they take pride in.
