i saw wide-eyed children today. i saw them run as fast as their dear little legs could carry them, i heard their laughter pealing out with the same unrepentently joyous qualities that carry winds from one end of the earth to another. i was amazed.
and then i found myself almost wondering, for a moment, whether or not i'd change anything if i could go back to those carefree days, and start over. start with days where gaptoothed smiles and sunshine were the basis of my existence, and end at a better place than i am now.
and to my utter relief, i realised that if i had that opportunity, i wouldn't change a single thing. because despite the fact that my life isn't perfect, i am happy with who i've become, and i am happy on this path to becoming the person i will be in ten, twenty, fifty years.
i don't plan on changing a thing. life takes its own course, and that's the way it should be.

i hope that nobody ever figure out time travel, because it would probably ruin everything and end the world.
you are correct, sir. we're good as we are--people need to learn to get comfortable with where they've ended up in life! you can't change anything, but you can accept everything.
