Marriage, birth of children, taking one in the vest, being diagnosed with MS, having and surviving cancer. Each one has been life altering, each one was a gift from God.

The death of my mother. 1993. Sent me to a bad place.
The end of my marriage. 2011. Taught me to pull myself out of the muck.
Rollover wreck. 2014. 75 mph down the interstate and walked away with a small bruise from the seatbelt. Made me value life and the good times more so than ever before.

My mother passing away when I was five. Left me a mess as a kid, but I have a great family so. I did notice until I meant my wife people did not matter to me, and now that I am a father I fear ever leaving my family.

Death of my daughter..............
Very sorry to hear this. I can't imagine what that is like. I remember hearing someone say after the loss of their child..."I know I will never get over it but I will get through it" !
May God comfort you.

Mine was 1993, I-12 West bound near Holden. Moved over to R lane due to curtain of rain on horizon. Road was wet, rear end swung around as front wheels hydroplaned...woke up in center median with truck on drivers side.
Witness said I spun 2x on asphalt and rolled several times once I hit median.
All I remember was that eerie "my hands are on the wheel but my feet aren't on the floor" feeling as pennies are flying all around me and White Zombie droning on and on...
Henry Ford's great invention was not made to work in the rain.

I first accepted that I'm attracted to men after seeing the movie Milk. I said screw it, I like what I like and no one can judge me.

Having a kid. Makes me hope I don't die

I was in Desert Shield/Desert Storm when I was twenty and that was life changing in itself. But I will never forget coming home. When I landed at an Airport in Atlanta there were a group of kids my age from a fraternity and sorority in Georgia getting off the plane and they had been at a resort partying. I realized that American was a different place for all of us based on socioeconomic standing.
Then we landed in Ft. Sill Oklahoma about 2 hours before daylight. we loaded up on a bus and we headed to the army post. The sun was coming up and all you could see was rows of corn planted on both sides of the road for as far as you could see. I began to see something on the side of the road and then as we got closer I realized it was tractors parked on both sides of the road.
It was daylight and every farmer in that town and surrounding towns were lining both sides of the road for probably ten miles. They were old men in overalls and little girls in shorts, mothers, fathers, grandparents and girlfriend. There was an American flag on every single tractor blowing in the wind.
It was the most american I have ever felt in my life and I realized that not only those people on the side of the road but also those college kids and everything else in this nation was worth protecting.
It was one of the greets days of my life.

I can relate to this all too well. I dealt with this same issue. That feeling of betrayal & subsequent divorce put me in a deep dark place. It completely fricked me up to the point of feeling I couldn't trust anyone. Made me very cold. Luckily a few years later I met an amazing woman who pulled me from the depths of depression. She truly showed me what it means to love. I am happier now than I've ever been in my entire life. I'm a better person because of her. I also know if I didn't go through the hell of my divorce I wouldn't appreciate her the way I do.
I hope to find that one day. Sometimes I wonder if something's wrong with me. I've met some great girls that are beautiful with great careers and feel nothing.

My father passed away when I was 19.
This happened to me almost 50 year ago. It was very sudden. I sobbed uncontrollably throughout the memorial service. I tell people that was the last time anyone saw me cry, although this is not true. That event truly changed my life forever.
quote:
I've distanced my self from most of my family
This happened because I eventually moved away. I have lived all over this country and had no inclination to move back to my home town. I visited several countries while in the military. The more you travel, the more you grow. This increases the distance between you and your relatives.
quote:
I hate myself for it at time
This never happened to me. I was able to live my life and find the jobs I wanted because I was not constrained to live near my relatives.
Never apologize for living your life the way you have to. You would be absolutely miserable if you moved back home now.

Just got back from my dad's funeral. The whole world feels different

Went off of a New Zealand back high way at 120MPH, spun around, hit a tree backwards which cut the subaru car almost entirely in half, long ways. The tree stopped cutting through as it hit my chair, knocking my head into the windshield. I walked away uninjured...gave me a lot to think about moving forward. People in town called it a miracle.

Taking Mythology at LSU in Lockett. Realizing all religions are total BS and base all their stories off the same stories of ancient mythology. Creation, Flood, etc.. Everything I learned at a Catholic school for 12 years was totally made up bullshite. My life has been much more fufilling knowing I don't have to waste time with the sheeple bowing down to a space fairy, but rather open my mind to the wonders of the universe.
You might want to open your mind to the possibility that your one semester entry level mythology course might be full of crap.

I lost my mother when I was 4. I am not sure if I have actual memories of her or if they are figments of stories, anecdotes and photographs. My Daddy died 9 months ago - he raised me with help from my Mamaw and her maid. I am still reeling from his death - so much so that I hide it from those I love and share my pain with anonymous internet personas...
This event is in the process of changing me - just don't know how I will be when I come out the other side...

I put the pussy on a pedestal and moved to Chicago and it didn't take three years for it all to come crashing down... and it broke my heart I'm sorry to say.
Not as serious as a lot of stuff shared in this thread and I respect that but it changed me forever fwiw: I finally learned how the world works.
