Hi.
How do you decide the events in a life that define you and who you are? Do you know the minute they happen? Or do you look back on your experiences years later, and differentiate the memories that are the building blocks of your character? Is it just a moment or is does it span an entire week? Is it a connection you find with someone else? Or is it something that uncovers another facet of your own self?
Do they have to be life altering, mind blowing - mind boggling? Or can they be something simple - normal - everyday moments? Do they fill you with a happiness that bubbles up and out of you, till your shouting it at the top of your lungs? Or do they bring out the deepest, darkest, draining, life-depleting feelings in the pit of your soul?
There is no way to plan them, no way to anticipate them. In fact, even if it is the biggest moment of your life, and you know it's coming - that it is going to be a defining moment - it will still creep up on you in ways you couldn't imagine. It replays in your mind as if it happened yesterday, for it is carved into your very essence. One can only hope that those moments are the ones that bring you joy.
To those life defining moments that you won't ever stop thinking about:
