  • Which moments in life do you wish you could do over? See all answers
    • Where's the 'undo' button?
    • If it were a possibility to go back and change or do something over again, I would choose many different time periods of which spark my interest to return.

      I would love to take a step back in time several Christmas's ago to the one in particular where my papaw bought me a Go-Kart. Ill never forget the way it shined. It was Bright Green, Yellow and Black and all I could remember was that it would fly. I'll never forget the feeling of my heart skipping a beat as I was buckling up the belt across my chest for the very first time knowing that I had gotten exactly what I wanted for Christmas thanks to papaw.

      I would go back to when my mamaw was alive- I would love to just see her one more time and hug her, tell her that I love her and let her know that I would always miss her being around. I'd love to comb her hair like I used to and play games and watch cartoons. Not to mention her cinnamon doughnuts - I can still taste them everytime I think about her.

      I would go back to October 22, 08... Johnny passed away, but if I could change it - I'd of wanted to be sitting in his driveway when he collapsed so that I could of gotten him that extra few minutes of life .. maybe someone having been there when he collapsed, maybe he'd still be here today. I cherished him in more ways than I ever got to tell him. I just hope he knows how much I thought of him and how great it was to grow up having him in my life.

      I would go back to February 23, 2008. Instead of laying in bed at 1:00 a.m. I would of walked in to check on my dad. I would of sat beside him to just strike up a conversation with him.. and maybe.. MAYBE I could of prevented the severe damage the stroke caused him. If only when he spoke to me I wish I knew it wasn't grogginess or sleepyness.. I wish I had some way of knowing that it was something far worse than that and I wish I had the power to change it, but it happend.

      There are a lot of things I wish I could of done differently, but then again, I wouldnt of learned the lessons that I have carried with me for so long. Lessons that have taught me to be a better person. Lessons that have taught me to live better and to be so much better than what I would of been had I not had these things happen.
