I've discovered I can reverse the "aging process" by keeping my body and mind healthy, youthful and innocent.

Many people wish they were 20 again and they could do things over. They cant, but you can.
The notion that now that your 20 its too late to 'set things straight' is ridiculous.

Dude trust me, you're still growing up.
I'm 21 right now, and I'm a very different person than the day I turned 20.
No need to start over, just make good decisions from here on

Theres no reason why you cant preform a self rebirth, mentally.
Erasing the knowedge you have today, whats to say you would have done anything different at age 15?
The time is now. Plus, i don't think theres any going back. At least no methods that i'm aware of.

yeah agreed! i just get caught up in my feelings and thoughts really easily sometimes. you see, i'm a very nostalgic and sentimental person. but i have to remember that it's in fact not too late and i've only just begun.
but, i mean the gentle innocence of growing up is something that i really miss.

I'm 23 and I know the crisis of which you speak. Once I realized that I'm almost the age my dad was when he had me, reality bitch slapped me in the face.
Then I took a look at the grand scheme of things and realized that with modern medicine I could probably live to be over 100 if I take care of myself, so when you really look at it, you're nowhere near even 1/4 of the way through your life.

I would like to fix some errors of my youth (who wouldn't)
But the idea of going back to the age of 15 is a scary thought.

I agree. The years of 15-18 were the worst years of my life.

Dude I'm a HUGE nostalgia junkie. You should see my threads when I'm drunk in here. I had a dream that I was in my family's old apartment last night and it was the best dream I've had in a while. I take pride in being able to remember and embrace people and places from my childhood and you should too.

I would go back to 19 or 20 I guess. But Im pretty happy the way things turned out for me in the 10 years since that... so truthfully I wouldnt roll the dice and try again.

Me too mate. I was actually thinking about this 15 minutes ago. Only a little further back to when I was 10 years old. The ol' backyard, the smell, the inexplainable essence of it all. Though while I'm extremely nostalgic myself, I find myself frequently casting myself back to even 1 or 2 years ago.. realising that I end up missing every moment just as much as say 8-10 years ago. This has led me to appreciate the present as much as I can while it's still 'present'...... yeah. Y'know.

I've thought about that before, and in order for that endeavor to be effective you'd need your memories from this time, and I wouldn't want to go ALL THE WAY back in time and relive everything. I think I'd literally lose my mind. If I absolutely HAD to though, I'd go back to the summer before 9th grade. It was the best time of my life and after that was when things started to go downhill. I lost some family members (one of which was immediate) so I wouldn't want to go through that time again except to say goodbyes where I wasn't able to before.

that is so awesome mate! and i definitely do embrace the people and places, and i think i embrace them too much. i take too much in from it, make the memories too meaningful to let go. i find such interesting meaning in even the littlest of things, and that's just such a peaceful and beautiful thing to me. i think that's the deal: that as time moves on, those little beautiful things that meant so much to me start to change and move away, and i really don't want to let go to that kind of beauty. i mean i have it now, too, and i'm making new memories, but it's just the idea of letting go of any kind of sentimental beauty that's just a kick in the balls.
