If I could change anything in my life. Perhaps I could quickly learn how to cook 'Mants'. This is a food from which a man is hard to refuse.

We usually experience some change in our life that some time we don’t expect it, even little change can affect whole our life. Our immigrate to United States was One of those changed that I experienced and I never thought about it. We didn’t have any plan for this change and everything happened so fast. I remember that how much difficulty we had for this change, we had to stay 2 year far from our mom. I was 18 and my sister was just 13 years old when she left us, our life really changed I was playing like my mom at home specially for my sister.

The first step is to recognize that there is a problem or crisis that needs to be dealt with, and any changes in a persons life should continuously change for the better, but that isn’t always the circumstances. Secondly, not all changes have to be a negative experience.

If I could change anything in my life, I would go back in time and say my father, " I love you,dad.If I did something wrong, forgive me.I am so sorry about that". I would go back to my childhood to fix my mistakes. I was in our backyard with my brothers, and we were playing there.Then my father brought a gallon of paint and put it next to us.He wanted to paint the backyard. After that he left us for a minute to bring some equipment for painting.In that time just for curiosity I opened the cap of gallon and tried to look inside. For that reason I turned it in the side and accidentally I fell it.Then my father came back and saw what I did. It was combustible paint. Then my father decided to clean it up by burning. We were happy to look at the fire. After while, when my father wasn't there, my brother asked me if could jump over the fire. It was challenge for me.That is why I jumped but I couldn't finish it. In the half way I fell on the fire. Fortunately, my father heard my cry and retrieved me in time. Then he drove me to the hospital.Now I would go back and reject my brother.I also would go back in 2006, when my father was ill.He had a cancer. I tried to be patient but sometimes I couldn't do that. Now, when I remember that, I regret about that. If I would have chance to change something in my life, I would fix all my faults and start to live without mistakes.

I am 50 years old.I think me to change anything in my life late already.When I have lived in Russia,I finished Hight school, a college and a University.I have worked as a engineer.But my country USSR has collapsed, and my life has collapsed too.I have moved to USA for 5 years ago.I wished to construct a new life again.Unfortunately,the deep economic crisis has happend,and my plans have fallen to the ground again.While I tried to construct my life anew, I groun old.It will be better,if the world has changed.I think if I moved to USA when I was 17 years old,I could learn English faster then I do it now, I could finish the University and get a good job.But it is one thing which I never do not change,it is my family.I have very nice daughter and good son.I want they to have a good life,and never do not change it like I did it.If I won million dollars,I would begin my own business,and my children could live better then I have lived.

If I could change any think in my life, I would came to the Unite State thirteen years earlier, when I was five years old. First because I learned English much easier and I think when I was eighteen I know English perfect, and I did not have any problem with that language. The second thing it was easier to find friends in America when I was younger and single . For example, right now I do not have many friends. I only have just a couple. Third I will finish college and got my degree before I got married. Now it is so hard for me have a family, go to the college and working at same time. And finally I would like to stay at home and spend more time with my family, especially with my son, I will be very happy. But suddenly I cannot do it, because I have to study and work to get a better job and provide for my son. So you see, if I could change my live I would change a lot of things, but suddenly I cannot do it and maybe it is better, who knows.

If I’m could change anything in my life I would move my family to united states. This way we could live in same house and be together and see each other every night. Also mine parents could be happier here and maybe get better job. My sister could go to school and learn English like I am doing. The most difficult thing I’m ever change was leaving my family and coming here. This is why I wish to move them. One thing I hope will never change is my happiness, I’m easily very happy but I met people who not so happy but have more than me. They are older people so I’m worry maybe I start to get like this when get older. If I was millionaire I would buy big house in California and let my whole family lives there with me. I also would travel to see world and stay in beautiful places and nice hotels. I give some money homeless people, children hospitals and adopt many pets. I would go to see many beaches with the palm trees. When I’m done with travel I would get nice car and many new clothes and shoes. After all of that if I have some money I just safe it. I would not work and have boss but maybe I need more than just one million to do all of this.

If I could turn back time, I would not start smoking. It is the thing every day trying to quit. And never fail. I gave up many bad things, but smoking does not succeed. The most difficult change in my life was to emigrate. It is not easy. Even today, after two years, I have not totally adjusted. The one thing I would not change is married to my wife. It was the best choice in the world to me. She gave me the best sons and forgave me all my mistakes.

Life is full of happiness and love, but sometimes we can't see it because of some little problems in our life. When I was little girl, I always thought that, when I went to school I would have the most happiest life. But I was wrong. Then I went to school and I really had happy life in school, but when I went to High School I started thinking about my future. At this time I thought that when I finish school I would start the new happy life, because at that time I would be big and smart enough to be like my oldest sister and brother.But it's not like this because the most beautiful and happiest time in people's life it's when you little kid and every one always helps you, teaches you, taking care of you and at the same time you can do what ever you want. The other thing when you start growing up, you have to take care of your self and then take care of those who you love.It's not a bad times in our life but it's not that easy like being a child .I think if I could change something in my life, I would start with time when I was child and enjoy that time as long as I can . Because like some one smart said " Life is not measured by the breath we take, but by the moments that take our breath away!".So we have to enjoy that kind of moments in our life and be thankful for it.

Anyone can change something if that person wants to do that. Of course in my life I like to change a lot of things. Such as a job, education, benefits, relatives. But relatives we can’t change they always stay the same. However I like to talk about education if I could change I would like to come to US more much younger age at list to be in high school then got a diploma. After high school I would like to go to college right away to get bachelors degree or master degree. But for now I can do something not a lot, because to have a family and go to the college it’s kind of hard, spatially to find a time to do homework. But I think if I want to change anything in my life I have to work hard enough and I will get my goal. So I don’t want stop I just want continue to study and I’m sure I will rich my goal in a few years.

I am sixty years old and today is not easy to change anything in my life, but really now I'm trying to do something.Life in my country 20 years ago was difficult not only for me, but for all the people.Under the regime of communism many people were not allowed to go in College or University. I liked to continue the school, because I was a good student,but was not allowed for me. I had to go to find a job. Fortunately, high school education helped me to find a good job in construction. For many years I worked as a constructor and I had a good life with my family.Always I dreamed to go in University. After 1990 I had a possibility to go in University , but I had to take care my family. Only today ,here in U.S. I have a good opportunity to go in College.I belive something is changing to me ,but in my mind I have many questions: Can I graduate from college? How many years I need to graduate? I think I didn't change in those 60 years.I have the same love for my family,for my country,for democracy,for work and for school. If I won a million dollar ,I think is late for me to change many things. I can help my children and any relatives or friend to change their life.

When I was living in Ukraine, I never thought that I would move to the U.S. When I lived in Ukraine, my brother and I were going to school. My mother had a job, she worked from 9am to 6pm five days a week. My father worked abroad every year; he was going to many different counties such as: Spain, Portugal, Poland, German, and Russia where he earned a lot of money. He would spend 8 months abroad and then come back home for 4 months. Then, again he would go to another country. It was his method of earning income for his family, as long as I can remember. We lived very good in Ukraine having enough money for everything and for vacation too. My father’s dream was that his kids get a degree from a University or Academy. When I finished high school I entered into the Ternopil Academy of National Economy. Studying at the Academy was not free and my dad paid a lot of money every year for my education. One day, I said to my parents, that I want to have a job or go abroad to make money myself. I’m tired of studying and education was getting boring for me. But my dad said no, he believed that people without an education can’t get a good job. He said, forget about your idea, first education, then work. My father worked hard in construction and many years he was away from his family. When he was a child his parents were a poor and he knew what poverty is and he didn’t want his family to have the same life. He did everything the best for us. When I had summer vacation after my third year at the Academy, my dad was working in Spain. On July 6 at night time somebody called to my home phone and said that your dad is no more alive. It was the most horrible news for my mother, my brother and me. Only one thing that I would like to change in my life, it is to return my father back to our family.

If I could turn back time and change any thing in my life,I would love my parents more.I would often say it him.I would spend more time with them.I would listen patiently to all that they told me.I would never have provoked them and would not be put off coarse.They were very fond of me but I did not appreciate it.Now,when I remember my parents,I feel very bitter.They died very young.Also if I could change any thing in me life,I would belief of Good all of my adult life.So I would not do many mistakes which I regret now. I believed of Good,when I was 23 years old.It I will never change.

If I could change something in my life, I would like to spend more time with my children. I personally believe that spending time with your children is the most “profitable” investment you can make in your life. The most difficult change I ever made was decision to move from my country. It isn’t easy to learn foreign language, culture and lifestyle. One thing I will never change is my faith. The faith in God keeps me strong through any difficult situation in my life. If I won a million dollars I could travel with my family, start own business and get my education done.

I think everybody has regrets in their life, and everything we have done in the past is what makes us who we are today. I think we learn from our past. Mistakes are what shapes our character. I don't like to regret things because now I am very happy person, although there is a one moments I would like to change in my past. I think I made one mistake when I quit college. I didn't understend it was something very important for my future. I studied for three years in medical college and then I get married. I have never regretted about the fact that I'm married, but after our wedding we decided to move to the USA and I don't finished the college.I do not think my life would be the same if I were to change it. That why I prefer to leave everything as is. I wouldn't change anything I have done or not have done because I personally couldn't picture my life any other way. Now I have a lot of friends and blessed family. I am really happy women, wife, and mother.We live in a wonderful country and I have a chance to study in ARC collede. And I believe that my dream of work in the hospital one day will be a reality. So if I could go back and change somethikg, I wouldn't!!!

Ten years ago,I changed my life in a good way. I planned to enter a university to improve my education. During that time, my father was really sick. We should take care of him, so I got involved. Most of the time I was in the hospital. My mom was so sad and I wanted to change my mom's feeling. I was weak, but I showed to her that I was strong. This performance was hard for me. I should study and take care my dad too. At the same time, my nephew got meningitis. He was a baby and he died. My brother can't believe that happened. My other nephew was ten years old and they didn't say anything to him.

If I could change anything in my life, I would have listened more to my parents. I didn’t, I always did what I wanted to do. I was stubborn and made a lot of mistakes that I could have avoided. One of the things my parents encouraged me to do was to study harder. In Korea it is not easy for woman to get jobs and even if they do study hard and graduate from collage they won’t have they same opportunity as a man would. I sometime thought about this advice when I was young attending school. I wish I would have studied more and graduated from collage, this would have made my parents proud and given me more opportunities for a good job.

I'm about fifty years old. And my life wasn't easy. But each year of my life was succesful and helpful. I'm a happy woman because I know about God and He keeps my life protected! When I was a child I had an awesome dream.That is fulfilled. When I grew up I became a doctor and I could help a lot of sick adults and kids. I have a beautiful family three children. Their names Alexey,Alex and Elena. I really love them. They always pray,care and exasperated about me. My three grandsons are healthy and obey to their parents. I'm proud of myself that I can learn hard language as English. Know how to drive a car. I'm so happy that I live in this country! But I wish to change something. I want to learn to forgive people and learn to accept them with their disabilities. I do not want to be resentful and I want to be tolerant towards other people. I want to be myself! I believe that if I'm going to change my character then everything will change too. People will be kind,normal and respectful. They'll not judge by the way I look. Start to notice me and get more attention to me if I'll change. But some people like me have problems as depression and etc. I wish that everything will be better! I'll pray to God so He could help me and change some things. But I always be me and I'll change it if I want too.

I do not want to change anything in my life.I am happy.I did not think about it.Even if I could change anything in my life I would have started from the beginning of my life,when I went to school.I would read more books.And listen to my parents.Now I have what I did before.There is a saying,what goes around comes around".I did not listen my parents.I learned in school not well.My grades were bad,and it all make my life not good like I wanted.If I was a good student I have changed my life fundamentally.Many years later when my brother and I grew up together I can see and draw conclusion.I remember like he read many books.In that time when we were children he always hold several books under his pillow.The books can study important things.In books we can find many examples in the lives of famous people have lived life and gave advices for other people.

If I could change anything in my life, I would like to go back to my home to study hard and learn how to speak and write English .Because right now I have hard time to learn I feel it’s so difficult to learn in old age. So it’s better to learn when you little age. I had hard time here in America to speak, learn and understand. When I came to America I lost all my friends, relatives, memories even I had to change my language and that were the most difficult part in my life. I felt my life start form begging. its sound so hard because I have to find anew friend , I have to learn anew language so I can understand whets go an around me .I have been here in America for four years and half . Every year is goes my life became better and better, from the first day I came here Intel today my life change a lot and became successful and helpful. I always give thanks to God about my life .He always help me to be success in my new life in America. I never felt alone God always with me for every step I take in my life .I always pray to God so my life to be better and better.

Our lives are in a continuous change. Everyday we make a lot of decisions, big or small – that can change our life, and not always in a way we want them to. Sometimes we wish that at a certain moment in our life we would have made a different decision, and try imagine how our life would have been if we did something different at that point of our life.

If I could change anything in my life it would by my back. I have a medical condition called scoliosis. Most difficult change I ever made in my life was to move to US. It was a difficult process for me. I will never change my faith in Jesus Christ. My God has always looked out for me and I know he will never stop. If I had 1 million dollars I would help my family and church. I would give my parents all things they ever wanted but could never had. I would help my church with some of their financial problems. I would also buy a house.

My name is Igor, and if there is anything I would change in my life it would be my financial situation. I would get more money. Moving to America was most difficult change in my life. Flying on plane for the first time was scary. One thing I would never change about me is my faith in God. It will never happen, because he is the truth. If I would win 1 million dollars, I would get married. Getting married is a step you can take when you are ready financially. I would also open a business.

It’s hard sometimes to recognize that you made some mistakes in the past. I think that every person in his life has regretted about something he or she has done wrong in the life. SO do I. If I have the possibility to return a decade or two in my life so first think I would like to do is do my best in the school and continue studying and have a profession. When I was in school I was dreaming about to become a doctor, but I started to work at a very young age and then my plans changed I started to be more involved in works life free time and I stopped thinking about getting a degree. Now I see that I made a big mistake. The most difficult change in my life was when my girlfriend (now my wife) came in the U.S. and I remained alone in my native country. One thing I want to change and I can’t do it, is to quit smoking. If you won a million dollars first I will help people who helped me in my life, or others, then I will buy a house and the rest I will leave for the future of my children.

I've been asked this many times before,and each time I really have to think.If I changed something in my life ,would I be the same person I'am today?i would change nothing. Although it is true that no one should have to go through the expirences i have everything that has happened has influenced me to become what i am today. i may still have prolbems but i have seen the potentional for worse. (in myself) i may have ended up the same kind of person i am today for all i know if my experinces were different. but i cant look back. every time i do i fall down then i have to get back up and that isn't very fun. thats why we as people have eyes in the front of our heads so that we can see where we are going. not to where we have.So I never regret anything about my life.Everything I have done was my decision,and it happened for a reason.Every experience I have had is just that ,an experience.No regrets about any of it,just learning points.I don't live with regrets because I don't want to make myself miserable.

I would like to change something in life of the all people of our country. For example, if I was the President, I would continue to live on the ground, in the real world, so as to better understand what people want and need. I wouldn’t be afraid to make the tough decision. I would enclose more money in cultural development of the country. I would raise the salary workers. I would make in all cities more sports clubs that in our country lived healthy, sports, strong, capable to protect the Native land people. I would make separate shops specially for cigarettes, spirits, indecent magazines that in usual shops all these things weren’t on sale.

Change? Nothing, because fate brings me here and there, and what exists is only my present moment, not my previous present moment. I would just change my mistakes. But I never regret anything about my life! Everything I have done was my decision. I wouldn't change anything i have done or not have done because i personally couldn't picture my life any other way. I have friends, family and work. I am happy with my family.

If I could change anything in my life, I would be a president. I would try to rule the country wisely. The most difficult change I have made in my life is I came to God. After I confessed in my sins in front of God, I became a new person. I felt peace in my soul which I have not had before. I quit drinking. I stopped saying bad words. I quit some bad habits. Unfortunately, I cannot change some mistakes I have done in my life. I do not want even recall them nor to tell. If I won a million dollars, I would give half of them to the poor people.
