What day or event in your own life would you go back to if you could?

If you could go back in your own lifetime to any day or event, but ONLY as an observer, would you do it? If so, which day or event would you choose and why?
If not, why not?

The first time I jumped a horse over a barrel. It had finished raining before jumper class. The smells in the air were fresh. The sand was perfect grip. The horses were spirited.

“Totally awesome wrinkles” was the name of the horse. He was just a partial hand over being classified as a pony.

His hooves just brushed the top of the barrel and made my heart skip. But as he kicked off I knew we would clear it. He even swished his tail and nodded his head up, feeling good.

Filled to the brim with happiness from accomplishing something new. I gave him a good pat on the other side. He reached back and nuzzled my boot tip.

That moment always stayed with me as clearly as any other major life event. There was such childhood joy and peace in that moment. It would be interesting to watch it as an onlooker.

Damn! If you don’t write for a living, you probably should. I can see it myself and we’ve never even met.

It's not a day, but a period in life. If I could fix my own life, I'd go back to age 8 or 9 and DEMAND to see a doctor in order to fix my Precocious Puberty and not stop growing at the age of 10. My mother never cared for me, but my grandmother was very cautious and would've listened to me. Maybe I could've got some HGH and not ended up a f*cking little 180 cm shrimpy runt that even women can easily outgrow nowadays.

But if I was only limited to one day in the past, I'd go back to October 31st/November 1st, 2012 and leave my mandatory double-shift in order to save my ex partner from dying. Maybe we'd last another year or two, but it's better than her dying.

The idea is that you can only observe though. You can’t change anything.

If I could only watch I guess I would like to see the birth of my first son.

Seeing my grandfather passing away.

[Chazmatazz269]

Really? I don’t think i’d do that. Maybe i’m wrong. With hindsight and life experience, maybe i wouldn’t be so damaged by the sight of him, sick and dying.

My grandfather had a heart attack in 1991 and as a kid, I never understood death. I think just seeing him would bring closure about death as I never understood as a kid.

Maybe when I went to Disney World when I was 12
