If You could go back in time and do something you did not do
but would like to do, Would you care to share it ?
For example: Here are some things I never did but wish I could.

1. I would like to scale a wall. ( The one indoor where we pull
ourselves up and someone spots us.)

2. I would like to go to Branson, MO. ( I like entertainment as
long as it is clean.)

3. I would have written a Novel. ( I love writing short stories.)

4. If I could go way, way back in time, I would love to have met
Jesus and talk with Him and hear Him laugh.

5. I would focus more on my School Lessons and less on boys.

6. Now, I have learned a lot just by living life itself.

7. I would like to go to the dying and be certain they have heard
the Word of Christ before they cross over.

There are so many things! Go to Branson if you ever get a chance, it is so much fun there.

1. I would have accepted Jesus into my life sooner (much sooner)

2. I wish I had learned to play a musical instrument

3. Like you, I would have liked to have met Jesus when He walked this earth

4. I would like to go back to my teenage years and be a nicer person

5. I want to take an Alaskan cruise and see the northern lights

6. I want to swim with the dolphins

These are a few things, I hope they are what you had in mind.

Exactly what I had in mind. I hope you get to do all these things.
You are still young and will have fun times ahead. God bless ~ J-K

1. I'd like to go back to my grand-mother-in-law's last days, and sit with her to read the Bible while she was hospitalized. Always regretted not doing that.

2. I always wanted to backpack through Europe. Still on my list!

3. I would like to have been a more affirming wife.

Yeah I wish I could also go back in time and (hopefully) have been one of Christ's original Apostles. I often feel like my spirit is really old anyways; ancient...like I'm a bit out of place in this age. No, they didn't have our modern conveniences back then, but roles were more clearly defined and life was simpler (comparatively). And society at large wouldn't be as dark as it is, compelling me to distrust of people.

I think I would've been a carpenter too (the grandfather job of modern day engineers); have my wife and child(ren). We'd carve out a happy life.

~sigh~

If I could go back to high school with the knowledge I have now, I would have goten out of atheism a lot sooner. That, and I would have responded to people that were reaching out to me, instead of just stone cold ignoring them.

I would had appreciated the little things I had more. Looking at my life now and glancing at how it was, I see where there were things I should have seen God was using to lead me to where he knew I needed to be. Also that the little I did have, I don't have anymore and see how I should have complained a lot less than I did about the situation then....

I pray I've learned and grew from it

I should have been a better man.

I should have been smarter with my money.

I would like to get a bag of candy and be able to watch only the funny times in my life... That seems like a lot of fun for me... Because I always forget the funny things, and remember the sad ones...

So to keep it in the topic, I would like to remember the good more than the bad...

You know what ? I was just thinking about this quote this week.
The part about how it is easier to remember the bad than the good.
Wow... I guess it is true, all good minds think alike. ~ Thank you for
responding ~

I would like to have told my mother from the beginning that we met, when I was five, that God created me to be me and she had no right to say I had to change everything. I would like to have stood tall instead of slouching through life ashamed. I was past middle age when the truth finally came to me.

Hmm! Oh, Mrs RedTent... We both have done the same she did and, when we grew old, we knew where and when, she wasn´t allowed to be a mentor...

I didn´t say that to you, that day you "recommended me" how I should honor or venere my mom´s ways (using the Bible hints you thought best) and, you didn´t tell it many people how tried to help you the best they thought they could.

I have won it a couple of times. i see it as an investment, not as a thing to bet (or throw money in).

Hmmm!

The only thing I think of is that, if I was rich, I would have tried to spend all my holidays in a place I loved, near the coast. When i was young, not everybody was allowed to go in.

When I was young, people were mindful and respecful, different and that place had houses well separated that seldom people noise reached me or molested me.

If I was rich like scrooge duck, I would have bought the land and those house to get the poeple I liked to be and live with. The things I loved and learned from nature where grasped there (even love) so that special place drove me crazy, to the point I bought a place I enjoyed like that (which was a resort managed by the gov) but I couldn´t build the houses I planned, just the hut I now own.

In that area rained too much and this was the end result
