Food for thought

Would you rather
Be able to go forward in time on 3 different occasions in your life
Or
go back in time once?

It's interesting to think on this on because I'm sure most all of us has one thing we would like to go back in our life and change.  But, if we were to go back and change that one thing, how much of a change do you think it would make on the here and now?  I've thought of this multiple times.  There are a couple of things I would like to go back and change but if I really look at how those events may interact with each other, can I say I would be here? With Dastard?  I really don't think so. 

But, on the other hand, to go forward in life, how much of an intrusion and change would that make?  Yes, we may be able to avoid a mistake, but with that avoidance what else gets changed and is it for the better?

Middle age is when your broad mind and narrow waist begin to change places.

Keep on Go!

Go back in time of course. I would go back and warn my mother about her cancer.

Neither. I thought about it once, but if I went back, I wouldn't have the kids and you. Not worth it.

How can you not let the actions of someone determine how you view them?

kade47: I believe the quote wasn't referring to that someone, but to others. Here's an example: If someone you trust, violates that trust, don't let that act color how you trust other people. Your question is a great one though and I wonder how people would answer that.
