I've come to the conclusion that many times - yes, I would change the past as though I had never committed certain mistakes. But since I can't, I move forward and strive to change the thinking that lead me into it in the first place. Many religions preach the same principle - to pick up and change yourself to be the person who would never have made the same mistake had he been there. Who we are becoming is so much more important than who we once were.
