We live in a society that is constantly changing and crazy things happen every day. However within this society, there is this crazy and very eventful thing called life. Each of us have our own lives, with specific occurrences happening in each one of them. Whether it be for the better or the worse, whether we like it or not. We may not always like what goes on, but unfortunately we are unable to change it. So here are some things that I, myself have been through, and maybe you can relate, and wish that I could turn back time and change.
1. If it were up to me, I would turn back time and change the situation on how many times I have moved in my life. I have lived where I am today going on six full years now, and I am a complete misfit. There is no way to describe the feeling of having to move and leave your best friends behind unless you have experienced it.
2. I would do just about anything to go back to my Freshman year of high school and tell myself that I did not need a boyfriend to fit in. I wish so bad that I would have waited until I actually found someone worth spending time with instead of wasting it. I have lost many moments in high school and potentially the future with this one.
3. I would dump that guy in a heartbeat for the one who made me realize that I wasn't happy. Hearing "I told you so" isn't fun to hear when it is too late to make a change.
4.I would go back and actually try as apposed to gaining senioritis before becoming a senior. It happens to everyone, but try your best to not let it happen at all. Keep that try-hard personality inside of you until the end.
5. I would talk to the people that actually matter. You know that situation when someone admires you and you never acknowledge it until they no longer want anything to do with you because you always pushed them away. That.
6. I would stop comparing myself to others based on how they look or any other differences that I thought would be nice to have. This is so much time spent that was not worth it. I have come to the realization that I now have something they do not and I want to keep it that way.
7. Spend more time with family. Enough said.
8. I would go and do all of the things I was scared to just to have a little fun. Because I have realized that when you live a little you have a whole lot more fun.
9. Listen to that one person whenever you know they are right and you are wrong.
Don't look at the past as a regret, but look at it as a learning experience to learn what you need to change to benefit yourself in the future. We all have those days we wished we would have done something differently or that they wouldn't have happened at all. But the reality is that we have no control over majority of what we experience. However, we can all look at things we have been put through over the years and use it to benefit ourselves later on in the future.
