If given the opportunity would you accept a RESTART button for your life? Would you like to travel back in time and change things? What might your life look like after you did that?
This is how I would answer that soul-searching question:
1) I would not have married the man my parents and family warned me against. If I had not married him then my life would have been a lot easier after the divorce. I would not have been gang-raped and left for dead (by his 'friends'). I would not have had my home completely destroyed by a gang of vandals (his friends). I would not have had an emotional and physical breakdown.
HOWEVER.....I learned a lot from those experiences and they helped make me the strong woman I am today.
