Do you guys ever wonder what your life would be like. If one moment that was significant or insignificant was changed, like what year you were born, if your parents personality and characteristic were slightly changed. Or heavily changed if you had a sister brother or if you didn’t have any at all, or what your parents would be like if you weren’t born if you were rich poor or you were a orphan. I kinda wonder this maybe a bit to often but maybe that’s just curiosity getting the better of me who knows.

Yeah all the shit we go through in childhood impresses upon our minds certain ways of thinking.
Its called imprinting and it is very difficult to overcome.
Haven’t they done movies with that theme. Back to the Future?
Yeah that’s one of my favourite trilogies I didn’t even realise that I was describing it
I feel the same way as you at times, mostly when I am feeling down.
Same
I always wish I had different parents :/
It is really really interesting how university works, it’s all a chain of events that bring something up a slight change, the slightest possible change and everything changes.
I’ll bring up another example other than the ones you already mentioned.
Thing is I was playing on this gaming community, I used cheats and I got banned which out of boredom led me to CS:GO, which literally led me to gambling which then made me $10,000 from which I lost $8,000 (yes IRL cash), that’s $2,000 profit.
Now if I didn’t get caught/banned on that gaming community I’d very likely would have stayed there, and if I got banned just a week later or something later than that I’d join the CS:GO community or I would not, and if I would I probably wouldn’t be able to join that one giveaway I won and everything that happened would have been different or it wouldn’t have happened it all.
Now let’s get to the life point, if my father hadn’t introduced me to PC(Gaming) when I was a kid and got me hooked to it, I would have probably been a lot healthier and confident, if I had no brother I’d have my front tooth back and my nose wouldn’t be broken and misshapen, and I would most likely have a completely another personality and/or wouldn’t be depressed.
But the real question here is, would you still want to be that other someone? I mean holy fuck I get I’m depressed, but I’m still unique and I’m somehow nice and sensitive which is out of point in this current era; but it’s who I am and who I was shaped as so discussing “what if”s is just a waste of time and memory.
