did u ever had this feeling, 1 small event apparently insignificant did change the "direction" of your life, or did u ever wake up thinking, "from now my life will change"?
my accident made me feel this way: i saw how fragile life is...
I bought a plane ticket to Florida once. It changed my life. :-)
I came here... it's more than changed my life, i'm on extra medication and have a new therapist.
Yeah... I love those moments. You have got me all nostalgic now! I shall have a think about this...
there have been many moments like those...
the day i picked up a phone call for the first time back in October 2002
the day i stumbled upon the VR =)
and one that might change my life now..a call from Deity with some information =)
something that changed my life?
My ex breaking up with me. I let go of all fears and decided to make my dreams come true. I stopped living for other's dreams. I'm grabbing my stuff, and moving away with my best friend to create a path that leads to the rest of our lives.I wouldn't have ever had the courage to leave Florida behind if I would have continued to be bound by such deceitful chains. thanks *ex boyfriend *
the point where my life changed for the better was the night i recieved my broken bloody nose. i made a decision to get out and move here to arizona. best damn thing i have ever done. and now things are going really well for me.
i dread to even think about where i'd be had i not left.
many things changed my life...some of my x-s, family... yesterday i found out that my brother is on heroin,that he has a son,i mean he is not sure is it his child,that he broke in to a excange ofice and that he will go to jail for some time...that`s the last thing that changed my life...
yeah, when i came here, it changed my life...i never before thought i'd find so many people who shared the same interests as me....and i never thought i'd be addicted to something so much...lol
coming to the realisation that when the shit hits the fan the only person you can really ever count on is that guy in the mirror.....
The day I realized that As long as I have the people that matter most to me in this world surround me I need nothing else.. To be able be proud of who I am and not care what others think. Also to leave the past in the past and not to dwell.. a friend of mine would always say.. Just go with the flow bella... and once I started doing that... its all been good =)
My life is ever changing. Many paths are laid out before me. Each road we take determines a new outcome. My life changed 4 times between 2003 and 2004 combined. the last two were very possative. One special person always tells me not to worry and i believe her, she is always keeping me sane.
There have been many days in my life where it seems I could say was the first day...but if I had to choose one day in particular ... it would have to be the day Terra was born ... it was a day I was told wouldn't come ... or that I'd not live through it ... when the day was over and I held her for the first time ... that was the first day of the rest of my life....
I think that sometimes, to experience the freedom and hope that intensifies on those days, you need to feel the exact antithesis. In my experience anyway...

After being a lonely girl for a long time, one night I got to kiss someone I had liked for a while ;) After leaving their house in the morning (to go to work) I walked down the street into a big mpressive sunrise. To me that signified new beginnings, and no more lonliness perhaps.
Two months down the track I realised I was wrong.
I think if you look back, once enough time has passed you, the realization that it was not the big moments that change you is inevitable. Denial is too easy when life attacks you with bare fact.
Tiny fluctuations in your reality, things said to you in passing, plant themselves in you and grow. That is why real change in your life often takes you by surprise. You open your eyes one night and realize that you are not standing where you thought you were.
Or maybe that is just when I finally came down....who knows eh?
One day last August changed my entire life and for the better ... i will never look back *grins*
I think the biggest event that has changed me in recent history, would be everything I went through when my ex and I broke up. At one point, I was convinced that she would be the person I would spend the rest of my life with. We broke up, then basically started playing both me, and a close friend of mine at the time, and within a couple of months, was pregnant by him, and they got married. I got to the point that my mental strength felt gone, and I didn't have the will to anything with my life anymore. One night, I decided that I just didn't have the strength to fight the depression and heartache any longer, and I was going to just end my life. What still haunts me about that, was that I was completely calm about the thought. I didn't have any second thoughts running through my head, no thoughts of anyone else. Before I started home that night, something clicked in my head, and it felt there was some reserve of strength and life that had just been released, that I never had any idea was there to begin with. For no appearent reason, I was suddenly in an actual good mood, for the first time in several months. That changed me in a lot of ways, probably not all for the better overall, but it made everything a lot easier to get through. It still took a long time to even begin to really get over what had happened, but it all felt better somehow.
Hmm very interesting thread Obi .. When I wake up each morning, I say to myself.. this is the first day of the rest of my life, but I keep on doing the same ole things!! Maybe one day I will buy a plane ticket too ;)
the day i found out i was going to be a dad changed my life and i think it's ws for the best because the dat he was born i was going to go out with some friends then later i found out they got in to a car crash and two of them died if i had not been there to see him born i could hsve died so i thank the gods and goddess for him every day and that was my sing that i needed to change my lifestyle and some of my ways
Now that would certaintly change your life around, congratulations Redeemer :)
was the day i realized that people are either going to like me or not....that no matter what i do to please or displease some people ..things aren't going to change unless I take the initiative and change them myself whether for the better or for the worst...I am in control.^^v^^
Yeah ive had that feeling alot of times like the time i punched my friend in the face..idk how but that changed my life.
The older I get, I realize that everyday is something NOT to take for granted, but to be lived to its fullest, hopefully making the right choices along the way. The 'ol hindsight thing shows me how I screwed up in the past, and I really don't like repeating myself...just ask my daughters!
I just feel like I am where I need to be at this point in my life.
My new medication for my migraines and the school I'm currently attending gave me that feeling. The meds killed my migraines completely after having 2 or 3 weekly for months and the school lets me do what I need when I need to be able to get my work done. They let me call in from the hospital and ask questions about my homework. It's great.
