It doesn't matter how old you get, you'll always look back on things said by past-you and cringe. Unless you're emotionless and unchanging, I suppose.
I've been emotionless and unchanging, myself, as well, and I feel like a future version of me is currently cringing at my present self.
Holy hell, is my self-esteem low.
Consider: This may mean that you will just improve as a person that much. Your future self is clearly awesome!
Apparently that happens aplenty; if you consider Deja Vu's and the like. If my life's anything like playing games on an emulator, I wonder how many times I hit a savestate or rewind button? And on that note, what the reason was (checking a chest before refusing the contents within, for good reasons? playing the story at my own pace, not the game's? Fun portion? Boss fights to replay? Cheat Engine opportunities/education?)?
While on topic, if that's at all a case, it can explain why certain more tedious points of my life felt like time went much quicker than usual. Must've been level-grinding, and cutting the hassle by hitting the fast-forward button while doing so. Of course, after playing through Chrono Trigger again (Re-Translated SNES version, almost done again), it feels likely the case, from a more meta-perspective. Given the overall frequencies and accuracies of my Deja Vu's (to borderline seer, at times), I wonder how many times I played this life's story? I hope the ending was worth it, or at least the overall story, and maybe some savestates for particularly fun portions (think preparing the afterlife ahead of time).
EDIT:
Now I'm wondering when I might get my own version of the Green Dream accessory? The re-translated script tripped me out. Made me think of times where my life could have continued the same exact way, but for absolutely different contextual reasons (a good and not-so-good end-result which is relatively the same; or the Inevitability Principle in play (like, yet unlike, fate. A guaranteed ending, but can have variable meanings/reasons behind it, and still be the same by/at the end. Oddly enough, something I still consider with any/all actions. In case I need to adjust/undo it, I make sure I leave breathing room for a future/alternate self to intervene/re-adjust the meaning of the end/big picture.)).
EDIT EDIT:
Looking back at that, it kinda makes me wonder if life on Earth is Limbo or Purgatory, and is a bit densely populated while at it.

Oh, and Happy Birthday FJ.
