What Moment Changed your life... ?

[Been There]

In war, there are many moments that can change a person's life who is on the battlefield. There is one particular moment in my life that won't let go, but I am still here and that's enough for me to be thankful for.

Can't think of any one day or event, but my life has changed a lot.

Yep, lots happen in one’s life Alli,
it could be just a few weeks ago, or a few minutes ago

Another moment that changed my life , in 2004
which was very diffilcult for me

my first grandson Charlie was born 2004, the same day my special Brother in law passed away
such mixed emotions that day….crying and laughter …..

Like many, the day I met my woman
Not the event, or moment
She changed me
Without even trying

That was 54 years ago

......I'm still not let in the kitchen

Aww gary ….so happy for you, you soppy ole thing

Return to the Catholic Church almost 17 years ago…. My first communion was a moving experience

Went to a Wednesday night "Christian Fellowship" meeting. It was a group of "Charismatic Catholics" and a nice older lady from work talked me into going - I was closed to anything not Catholic as I was raised in that church. There was something in that meeting that I can not even explain, but it was a spiritual experience. I was never the same after that. I remember when I got home I went running for my then 4 mile "run" and I would time myself, always trying to get under 6 min a mile but never could. That night I did something like 5:50 a mile which surprised myself. I can't say that I was automatically this wonderful person (far from it), but something started within me that kept going to this day, and continues.

The same for me @Michael Z. The day I gave my life to the Lord, everything changed. Over the years it's gotten better and better in spite of my frequent failings and I'm eternally grateful for the gift I received.

Finding my husband dead.

Oh my. That must have been awful.

I was a nurse's aid. There was a terminal patient, Dick Wilgas. I got to know him. I had to get his pulse. At first, it was normal, 80 beats/min, but it started getting more and more rapid, and getting weaker. His pulse got so rapid and weak; I couldn't feel it. He was gone. He died while I felt his pulse.

Yes I’ve had that same experience and it makes quite an impression to know you stayed with someone as they stepped across eternity’s threshold
