Существуют, наверное, на этом свете умные и предусмотрительные люди. Я, во всяком случае, к ним не принадлежу(с)
If I had my life to live over,
I would try to make more mistakes next time,
I would relax, I would lighten up,
I would be sillier than I ever have been,
I would take more things less seriously,
I would be crazier, I would take more chances,
I would take more trips, I would climb more mountains,
Swim more rivers and watch more sunsets,
I would have more real problems and very few imaginary ones,
I have had my moments and if I had to do it over again,
I’d have more of them; in fact, I’d have nothing else,
Just moments, one after another,
Instead of living so many years ahead of each day,
I would go places and do things and travel lighter than I have.
I would stand barefoot earlier in the soring and stay that way later in the fall.
I would succeed by accident; I would ride on more merry go-rounds,
I would gather more clowns in my life; I would pick more daisies,
I would meet more people and hold more hands;
I would meet you earlier and know you longer;
I would love you better, perhaps it’s not too late

If I had my life to live over,
I'd try to make more mistakes next time.
I would relax.
I would be sillier than I have been this trip.
I know of very few things I would take seriously.
I would take more chances.
I would take more trips.
I would climb more mountains? swim more rivers and wath more sunsets.
I would eat more ice cream and less beans.
I would have more actual troubles and fewer imaginary ones.
Yoy see? I am one of those people who live prophylactically and sanely and sensibly, hour after hour, day after day.
Oh, I have had my moments and, if I had to do it over again, I'd have more of them.
In fact, I'd try to have nothing else. Just moments, one after another.
If I had my life to live over,
I would start bare-footed earlier in the spring and stay that way later in the fall.
I would play hooky more.
I would ride on more merry-go-rounds.
I'd pick more daisies.
