Good morning. It's May already! I can't believe how quickly this year is whizzing by.


Today's question; if you could travel back in time and meet yourself when you were younger, what's the one piece of advice you'd give yourself?

I think I'd tell myself to stop worrying so much about the little details in life and concentrate on the bigger picture, whatever that might be.

I'd tell myself that some day I'd be relieved that certain things didn't work out the way I'd hoped at the time.

Way too many things to list..make different choices...any decision you make, go with a second, third or fourth choice to what you want to do....

I would tell myself to pay more attention to the things older people said. They are wise and we can learn from them.

I'd tell myself to stick to photography and stay in college. I changed my mind on what I wanted to study not long before I applied to college and regretted it. I left after one semester.

Save more money for retirement. We've been saving as much as we can, but we started a lot later than we should have.

If I'd gone back to young teenage years, it would be to make meditation a regular part of my life...  It would have made such a difference to have started back then!

I wouldn't go back. Everything happens the way it's supposed to and it's all for a reason.

Click to expand...
   Including, if we were able to go back in time, going back in time and changing things...


Sorry.. it just reminded me of first year philosophy at Uni:  the whole free will/determinism/first cause thing...
