If I Get To Visit My Past Like Scrooge!

I would be so happy if I could go back to my past like Scrooge in the novel, ‘A Christmas Carol.’ I would get to see once again the happy moments which I had lived in my past. The moments which will never come back, but if I get a chance I will get to live those moments again.The chance to meet those old friends. I would get to meet them and it’s like reliving those moments again. The fun I used to have back then would once again unfold before me. The people who I miss now, I would get a golden chance to see them again. There might come some bitter parts as well which I had done in my past and how I wish I could go back again and undo my mistakes! There are things which I have already forgotten but if I revisit my past, I might remember those all again. I will be so amazed when that memory will be in my mind and I will be happy to relive again. I think I might cry after seeing those memories. The first memory,  I remember, was that one of my neighbors had carried me and taught me to walk taking good care of me when we had shifted to a new house. Oh, how I wish to be in that part of my past again. I even wish that if possible in my upcoming future, I want to get that chance too as Scrooge did in the novel.
