Do you ever get that feeling that wish that you could go back in time and relive your life and relive all those good moments and change a lot of bad decisions that you've made. I wish I could do that I wish I could go to bed wake up and be 6 years old again relive my life all over again and fix a lot of mistakes I made. Maybe my life would be different maybe I would've fallen in love with someone. Maybe I would be happy instead of alone, anxious and depressed like I am today.

For me Spider-Man, one time around was enough. I learned through the good

and bad experiences of my life. I've accepted that the choices I made were for

a reason. Who knows, if I would have taken another path what might have happened.

It's known as the Butterfly Effect. Take a look at the video on YouTube. It's quite amazing

in what one little different choice can make in our lives.

I'm glad you are here with us. :) xx

I do wish I could have done better but all my mistakes led me to be who I am now, strong and resilient. I wouldn't have met my husband when I did and had my children. Our wedding song was God blessed the broken road which says that all your choices have led to now so I don't think I would really do it any differently. God has a plan and what we do is predetermined to lead us where we need to be now. Enjoy today and be grateful.

Meeting someone to love is a long and sometimes a problematic search however we all eventually find we will meet that number one person who has the same expectations as yourself. The problem you have is it is difficult to find someone when you are stuck in rooms with double brick walls.

Diversions will help you hobbies and new diversions where you will meet new people who have the same interests. Night Classes do help, you meet people with the same interests.

I took dancing courses, and would go dancing three times a week, it kept me fit and I met so many new people who where very much like me.

Dating agencies do work, that is where I met my wife of forty years. She was the Sister of the Organiser.

Look outwards, never inwards, inwards you will diverting your thoughts to a change in wallpaper

There is no need to go back in time to experience enjoying your life, and the reason you are feeling as you do is because you are not fulfilling your goals for the present moment.

Once you do, these experiences will be the great ones of the past.

Hope you find a way to keep making good memories!

I wish I took better care of myself and noticed the signs of my depression coming back. The anxiety was the precursor. I wish I learned better how to cope with the stresses of life. I've had a lot of loss in my life. Wish it were different. But, it's not. Depression has crept in and I want it gone.
