I think I'd be afraid to go back any at all. Butterfly effect.

I'd go forward a little bit.
No point going back, I'd rather not risk losing my man.

But right now my life is like..ugh... so forward.

If I go back in time- this would mean that all I have now do not yet exist.

...I would go back to the 1st day of when humanoids were 1st created..."I would seek to face off with the "conveyor belt" that forced the creation of man & animal (including all plant-life) into their primordial & current "miserable" existence...
"just curious to know the why & reason of it all"

...We cant get much from the (bible) since the word "bible" only means (BOOK) & books were translated by hands of "mortal man" who claim to be holy-spirit led" to write what they have written. & we have no proof of any so-called holy inspiration of the writers in question- so, therefore I would choose to go back to the 1st day of the 1st man & woman.

& from there- I would begin to translate all truth & just keep it all to myself- in order to spare the future any heart-breaks along the way...:)

I wouldn't want to change anything in my life now, I am finally at a place I feel safe, secure and loved. It took me forever to get to this place and I would never risk it

I´d go back 10-15 years, and say hello to myself. And maybe give myself a fed heads up.
Okay i feel like Biff now.

I'd go back to the early 20th century so I could meet Theodore Roosevelt and his daughter Alice. I'd also maybe put some money in a bank so when I got back to this time period, all the accumulated interest would make me a rich man!

If I could go back 10 years and change ONE thing without damaging what I have now (the change would add one thing to my life) I would.

But - after watching the Butterfly Effect - nah, wouldn't chance it! lol

Go back 40 years to when there were still decent trains! Better not to go forward - who knows what nasty s**t is around the corner?

omg yes! I would take school more seriously (when i was there) and I'd go to college abroad and experience different cultures! I guess it's all relative, and my life is pretty good now =)

I would go back in time about a hundred and fifty years ago and collect things that are a fortune today, but then again I am curios how the egyptians built the pyramids so I would probably go back to that time and see.

If I didn't have kids, yeah, I would love to go back in time and change the way I did things, but having children and grandchildren, I would never give them up.

I would definitely use a time machine to go back in time. I wish I had lived in the "Old Hollywood" time - I would love to go back in time and visit there for a while. That would be awesome!

I'd go forward.
What's the point of going back... I already know what happens there.
