What If You Could Change The Past?

How much would change?

What If You Could Change The Past?

What would you do if you could go back in time?

Would you take the option or do you prefer life as it is?

Would you go back to change the past or to relive it?

If you went back in time, would you spend more time with those no longer with us or would you spend it getting to know others better?

Would you spend more time with nature, or countless hours on electronics?

Would you try more new things?

Travel to more?

Read more?

Laugh more?

What would you change?

Unfortunately, there is no way to go back in time. Broken pieces of the past will remain broken.

While there may be solutions or ways to cover it up, it is impossible to change what has happened.

The past will always be. We do have power over the future, though. To some extent at least. There will always be events that happen out of our control, but we can control how we respond to them. We can shape our future so that it becomes a past we want to relive and not one we wish to change.

Think about the past. What would you change?

Do it now.

Spend more time truly getting to know others.

Enjoy nature.

Travel more.

And lastly, smile more, because the world can always use more positivity.

bruce springsteen album cover born in the usa

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.
