Dang! I thought you were talking about peanut butter! I love peanut butter! LOL Sorry, I digress. In answer to your question, No. Not keen on the things happening to my body as I get older, but I really like feeling more at peace with myself. Takes a lot of work. Every minute, every hour, every day. Until the good things become a habit for you. Didn't appreciate and value things as a kid that I do now.

I don't wish I could b a child forever, but there a a few years I would love to do over, some I would change others I would just wnat to relive. It's not fair that we cant go back to a happy place wether its child hood or just somewhere you've been and havent gone back too.

I just really miss being the person I was when I was a teenager. I felt like I was a happier, deeper, more spiritual person with greater insight and optimism than I have now.

no, I had a traumatic childhood. I couldn't wait to get out.
