Have you come across a moment that most people wait a lifetime to experience? Do you hope too? How has the experience changed you if you did go through one?

They start with songs, I find the statement in the lyric to be quite thought provoking so I put a question to it. And I'm studying humans so I can one day take over the world.smokin

I just got home from my youngest son's graduation, he has been recruited to play college football and has such a bright future ahead of him that I am still just kind of in awe....this has been a great accomplishment for him....and me......I feel like I have done very good.

I would have to say it was the moment of first holding my kids after they were born. Typical parent answer but it's amazing and don't know how else to really explain it flowerforyou

I haven't reached that point yet and am starting to fear that I won't...I hope to reach some point where it clicks and I realize that I am doing or achieving that thing I was put here to do or achieve.

Have you?

Honestly, when I found out I passed all four parts of the CPA exam on my first try...I can't describe what that felt like.

Well because of my past (I was hit by a car when I was 14, effectively erasing 14 years of me) I went through a number of things to figure out who I was and wasn't. I've been through death, life changing events, a number of which I can't speak of and some I won't out of respect. Been shot, shot at, seen friends shot, shot at. The one thing I do have is the fact that I had a friend who had a kid with another friend of mine and left her, I took up his position for about 2 years of that child's life before having to leave because of the choices the mother was making at the time...haven't seen either in about 3 years. That in itself is a life changing experience, and an eye opening one.flowerforyou

I quit college, married at 18, and spent the next 19 years being a good military wife, mother, etc...without daring to think about what I wanted. Now at 38 I'm single again, in a big mess financially, have grown and almost grown kids, am alone and not exactly having to fight men off, in a dead end job and still not done with my secondary degree, and trying to figure out where I go from here.

I cannot imagine, however, losing 14 years of my life and memories...are you scared that the point that you're waiting for already came and you lost it? I'm hoping there are points along the way that we get some idea if we're heading in the right direction so we can redirect if not...and you did an amazing thing for the child you stepped in for...you can't help it the mom couldn't see how lucky they were. I hope you're still able to have some involvement...?
