 Yes, but those experiences make you who you are now. I did some what-if
 thinking a while ago, and thought about what it would have been like to
 avoid painful moments in my life, but they built character and set a
 path for my life. Avoiding the pain wouldn't have caused a better path,
 and I wouldn't have the wisdom I'd gained from the experience - nor
 would I have the experiences I'd enjoyed afterwards.
