Just finished watching "Hot Tub Time Machine" and it got me thinking. Not about the Great White Buffalo or Adam's slut-tastic sister. Something deeper.
What if you could go back in time and chart a different path? Doesn't matter if you intentionally go there and are given the chance or wind up there. Would you? Would you risk it? It might not be fabulous, all sunshine and rainbows, like the movie. Maybe it's good, maybe it's bad. Would you take the risk? Do you want to walk along a different path?
Think back on your life. Did you meet your significant other at a young age? Did you drop out of high school or decide to follow a specific path in college? Do you have regrets? What if?
Maybe no. Maybe yes. Maybe an inkling of regret. Would you go for it?
Remember in high school when you dated so-and-so? What if you got married and had a kid?
Although it's interesting to think about, it reminds me of my high school Psychology teacher who always responded to "what if" comments with "What if the sun died out tomorrow?" We'd all be toast!
