Gwen, I like this one and would like to answer this question in poetry. I may copy it and try to do that. Do you mind? This poem fosters a lot of thoughts and ideas in my 85-year old mind. Thanks. Emma
This poem asks all the right questions Gwen and makes us think of all the things we'd like to do if we were young. I know I would have started writing a lot younger then I did. Well captured topic here.

Nice sentiments, Gwen; well written. If I were young again I probably would make the same mistakes but I would try to learn from them quicker. Blessings. Lamar
That's a good question. I would probably decide on other things. Yeah: Travel the world, meet with friends, get me another job, less responsibility and stress. Question is if I were happier than?
Better never look back. Those things are past. Accept them and await the future.
Hee Hee..Gwen...I wouldn't change a thing....everything is as it is meant to be...as it is...

Too much pain in the past for me to answer that question to be honest. But this was well written and makes the reader ponder the answers...whether (s)he wants to or not !!

I don't think I would make any changes because each thing I did to get to where I am now is all a part of who I am. Without each piece I would be somebody else.
Would you linger in familiar places
or would you travel afar?
I would definitely travel afar, as far as I could, and I would try to learn far more than I know today, and try to have a bit more patience and understanding along the way.
