Table Topics Tuesday

This week's topic is:

Would you rather live for a week in the past
or in the future?

As much as I would love to see what my future holds, I am going to have to go with the past!

I would love to go back 20 years, back to the day when I was single and still living at home. A time when I had no worries, no bills, nobody that depended on me. *Not to mention, a flat stomach*.

I would love to live a week of my life in the past that I made certain decisions and change many of them. The choice about my future, my career and my love life. *I would still have the daughters I have today though, that would be the only thing I would not change*

Who knows where I would be today?!

What would you do?

For me...I would definitely go back to a simpler time...late 70's and early 80's. Like you said...no major worries. We just didn't know how good we had it back then!

I am so hyper, I would want to live in the future. I can't wait to see what happens next:-)

I think I would re-live our wedding week...just to soak in the memories even more. :)

I would definitely go back. I too miss my flat stomach of yesteryear...

I would go to the future memorize all the lotto numbers and then come back to make millions! LOL!

I would like to live a week in the past (the future is inevitable!)... i'd love more time with my grandmother.

Hmmmm, this is a tough one. I'm reading the Time Traveler's Wife right now, so it's putting a skew on how I view the future/past.

I think I'd have to say the past as well-- at first, that sounds dangerous, because of that cliched saying, "Don't live in the past". But I wouldn't want to live in the future. Too much anxiety about what's yet to come, plus you might spoil a surprise! Better to relive some of your best moments!

I think all of the time how I wish I could just go back for a few days to when my two oldest (now 11 and 12) were babies. Don't get me wrong I definitely do not want another baby, but if I could just go back and hold them again for a few days and enjoy that littleness again for a little while it would be so nice. This makes me remind myself to take in every moment and try not to let time pass by too quick.
