The question of the day: knowing what you know now, if you could go back would you change anything in your life?
Hindsight is supposed to be very wise but is it? Do you look back on decisions you have made and say, "If I only knew."? Do you know that what you did you did using the best state of mind available at the time? Would you make the same decisions? Would you get into a relationship? Would you make the same career move? How different would your life today be if your choices had been based on what you know now?
I would have waited until I was older to get married. I would have gone for an education in what I really liked. I would have seen more of the world. Yes, my life today would probably be different but not necessarily better. The "would haves", the could haves" and the "should haves" don't make a damn bit of difference now.
How about you?

I would have had more children and moved to the countryside sooner than I did.I'm happy with my lot now but maybe I might have got here sooner by a different route and maybe without a failed marriage behind me - who knows :)
