Do you have any regrets?
Moments in your life that you wish you could have back, for whatever reason, to maybe do or say something different?
Do you wonder what could have been?
I know the grass is always greener on the other side, but do you ever stop and think where you would be had you made that one small choice, or not made that choice?
Do you think it would be better?
There's a reason you can't go back. Shit like this would drive you mad.
Later.
Barking mad.
ReplyDeleteI think the best curse ever would be the chance to redo ONE day. Would today be the day? Would it turn out better, or perhaps much worse?

The other problem is not that we'd constantly be rethinking our decisions, but we'd also be making these decisions without the gravity and sobriety required for some of them. Scuba while drunk? SURE! I can just redo that decision later! With no consequences, we have no dilemma. Things need to be final, need to become past decisions -- learning resources, but immutable.
Consider the options, but past decisions are past decisions, and we're lucky enough to NOT have the chance to re-evaluate them in the present tense.
