is it ever as simple as it sounds?

Dr. Tucker asked us all a very important question: "If we could live our exact life over again, up until this point, would we?"  Would we change anything, do we have regrets, what would you do differently?  When I contemplated this question, I found myself having a shouting match inside my head.  To say the least, the offer is very tempting.  Knowing what I know now, I could turn around my choices.  I could fix the mistakes and errors I made in the past, and I could get what I wanted.  Correction - what I think I wanted.  Let's just say the logical half of me won the argument.  If I were to change my past, who's to say I would like the outcome?  Or that that one change could lead to other changes, and I wouldn't like who I was?  The point is, I like where I am now.  Even through all the terrible choices I have made in my past, they got me here.  One small change could change where I am now - who knows, I could have died.  One different turn or word would change everything.  And let's be honest, who wants that? Well.. some people.  But not this girl.
