I'm certain all Muslims want to go to heaven, but what else do we really want? Something that you want to achieve in this world. Is there something you would like to change that happened in the past?
I really don't know what I want. I would probably like to go back in time and correct the mistakes I made.
I was looking at myself talking to myself and I realized this conversation...I was having with myself looking at myself was a conversation with myself that I needed to have with myself.
It's not wise to lament the mistakes you've made in the past (let it go, what's happened has happened and there's nothing you can do about it) but rather use the knowledge you gained from these mistakes in order to not make the same or similar mistakes in future and also guide others about it too.
Ibn Qayyim (r) says: Your life in the present moment is in between the past and the future. So what has preceded can be rectified by tawbah (repentance), nadam (regret) and istighfar (seeking Allaah’s forgiveness). And this is something that will neither tire you, nor cause you to toil as you would with strenuous labour. Rather it is an action of the heart. Then as regards the future (then it can be corrected) by withholding yourself from sins. And this abandonment is merely the leaving of something and to be at ease from it. This also is not action of the limbs, which requires you to strive and toil. Rather this is a firm resolve and intention of the heart – which will give rest to your body, heart and thoughts. So as for what has preceded, then you rectify it with repentance. And as for the future – then you rectify it with firm resolve and intention. Neither of these involves any hardship or exertion of the limbs. But then your attention must be directed to your life in the present - the time between two times. If you waste it, then you have wasted the opportunity to be of the fortunate and saved ones. If you look after it, having rectified the two times – what is before and after it, as we have said – then you will be successful and achieve rest, delight and ever-lasting bliss. However, looking after it is harder than that which comes before and after it, since guarding it involves keeping to that which is most befitting and beneficial for your soul, and that which will bring it success and well-being. (Al Fawaa'id)
And verily for everything that a slave loses there is a substitute, but the one who loses Allah will never find anything to replace Him.” [Related by Ibn al-Qayyim in ad-Dâ' wad-Dawâ Fasl 49]
Do you live in England? It's been sunny all the past week.
No brother. I'm from the United States of Satan
As for the OP, sometimes we remember the past never to repeat it again. However, it's completely impossible to avoid future mistakes. Mistakes just teach us all the existing ways to avoid various problems.

Hmm for me... I really want to help people; for instance, I've always wanted to be a psychologist mainly targeting teenagers that are depressed, hurt themselves, or hate life, and just help guide them through life and let them open up and live.
Now the only problem is college Just the thought of it makes me doubt myself, lol.

I also wanna have my own boat, I think that would be kinda cool to just go out on, and catch some fish... I also would need to live near a river for that though. So probably not a good idea to have a boat... yet.

I found a magic lamp once, and the genie inside was a bit of a stingy one. Instead of three wishes, it only granted me one. So I asked for a time machine, and got a casio digital. Yep, facepalm. Just goes to show, you can't trust those jinn things.

i want to see one ummah, and the Kingdom and Rule of Almighty God on earth, as it is in heaven.
and to be able to live under a system where debauchery is not pushed at people breaking newer limits every day
Allah made everyone different thats what makes them special,so no matter what ppl say just remember you're SPECIAL!! "You are with the one you love"
