  This is a funny one.... let me explain.
  
  Have you heard of chaos theory, the concept of a butterfly fluttering its wings in Africa causing a typhoon in the South China Sea....
  
  History in respect of our past is like that.
  
  The decisions we make in life, what we learn from them and the consequences of those decision contribute a large part of what we are, our 'being' if you like.
  
  Think - if, on one particular morning, Marek made a right turn when he left his home as a child instead of a left turn - he may well be a right wing Tory instead of a socialist.
  
  So, how could I possibly regret not doing this or that, perhaps at school. If I had made a different decsion then I may not have met my first wife and my sons would not have been born...
  
  So for that reason I will not answer 'If Only' but instead will make the most of the present my past decisions have made for me.
  
  There - I got all philosophical.....
