"TURN BACK THE HANDS OF TIME"
by Tahlia Hunter
As I stare into the mirror of my past,
it whispers to me:
“Were you to erase every mistake you ever made
and every past version of yourself you ever were,
then every lesson that you once learned,
would cease to exist.
For with every mistake you learn from,
you make one less mistake.
And the mistakes of your past
no longer reflect the person you have become.
As with each mistake you make,
two versions of yourself are born:
who you were before,
and who you are now.
And the memory those from your past have of you
is merely a photograph,
as who you are today
is not who you were yesterday.
For were you to live the same day over again,
with the wisdom you have gained,
you would now choose differently.
This is how it is possible to live thousands of lifetimes within one.
And though you may wish to turn back the hands of time
and live your life once over,
how precious it is
that you may now live the rest of your life this way.
