If I could live my life again.
In the next I would try to make more mistakes.
not try to be so perfect, I relax more.
I would be sillier than it already is, in fact
would take few things seriously.
I would be less hygienic.
run more risks,
take more vacations, contemplate more sunsets
,
climb more mountains, swim more rivers
. Andrei
in many places where ever I was,
eat more ice cream and fewer beans, I
more real problems and less imaginary problems.
I was one of those who lived every minute of their lives
sensible and profitable;
course I took a few moments of joy.
But if I could go back, I would
to have only good moments.
Because if you do not know, this is life made
of times, not lose now.
I was one of those
never went anywhere without a thermometer, a hot water bottle
,
an umbrella and a parachute;
if I could live again, I would live lighter.
If I could live again
begin to walk barefoot at the beginning of spring
and remain barefoot until autumn ends. I would take more
carriage rides, contemplate more dawns
,
and play with more children, if I were
new life ahead.
But you see, I am 85 and I know that I'm dying.
Jorge Luis Borges
