You have the choice to erase one incident from your past, as though it never happened. What would you erase and why? – via The Daily Prompt
I was newly pregnant with the youngest child. I remember receiving paperwork from his lawyer that I was being sued for custody. I would have stayed a bit more calm, and let him try to come for me and the kids. He said he was bluffing after he got me back home to him. Then I wouldn’t have had to establish custody out there and I would have been here already 5 years and maybe he would just be out of my life… instead of the kids being split up.
I wouldn’t have taken his threat so seriously. Since I was already pregnant with my youngest, nothing would change with who my children are, but maybe I wouldn’t be in the position I am when it comes to my children.
Aside from that, my life is pretty awesome considering my experiences… but that would be it. I might not be where I am or who I am today. I’d still be a greater version of myself than I was back then.
