If you could do a do-over of a fraction of time in your life what would that be?

by Jeannie Ruesch

There are many times I can look back on with groans and grumbles about how I handled a situation (or didn’t handle it, as the case may be some times.)  There are plenty of days, weeks, months —a year or two in my early twenties — where you think, “If I had only done this instead…”

But if I’d done “this” instead, where I would be today?

That’s a gamble I’m not willing to take with my life.   And whenever I see this question as a blog post prompt, I always come back to exactly that.  Sure, changing those moments that mortify us decades later seems great.  But not if all of those moments built up to create the moments I am lucky enough to have today.

Because I wouldn’t change a thing.   What about you?
