time travel
I often wonder what my world would be like if time was circular rather than linear - if I had the ability to go back to the past and perhaps even experience the future. The intent wouldn't be to change anything (the "rules" wouldn't permit that), but rather, to see for yourself whether certain things are really worth regretting or whether a problem could have benefited from a different approach. Perhaps it would also allow me to treat situations with a better attitude, since I would already have the 20/20 hindsight under my belt.
I often wonder, if I had this power...which instances in my life would I revisit? A few pop to mind...I would go back to august 1998 - when I first met my best friend, and I would have said "yes" to hanging out with her earlier. I would go back to when I had such a terrible fight with my mom when I was about 9, and I wouldn't have let my anger kidnap my body. I would go back to my valedictory ceremony and experience the great joy of singing in the chan centre - and breathe that privilege in once again. come to think of it, there are probably many situations where I would have said "yes" instead of "no".
what are some moments in your life you'd like to revisit?

Although I have some regrets, I think they are for the better because I can learn from them. If there were moments, it would be taking care of my sister better when we were younger (instead of running away from her and trying to lose her) and being in the moments when my daddy's diabetes didn't get in the way or he wasn't also yelling at me.
