POLL: If you look back in youre life, what is the best thing that has happened to you, helping in shaping you?(:?

Going back to college at an older age......!!

Stretching rack

more like what's the worst thing that happened to make me like this.

I'm 32 and friendless and have never been on a real date...

The "best" thing that ever happened to me is pretty vain and nerdy.

The most influential film I've ever watched, though, was Saving Private Ryan.

Oddly enough it was the 2nd time I watched.

The first time I watched it I was a teen and just saw a very violent, sensationalized Spielberg movie I didn't like.

When I watched it later struggling with alcohol... things clicked.

All things in life must be earned.

everything that happened shaped me the bad memories had more effect

It's hard to say if there's some best thing that's happened to me that's helped to shape me. Even things that I thought were positives and the best thing to happen to me at one time, ended up not working out so well or shaping me in a good way in the end (such as a very long-term relationship that eventually went downhill or going to get a graduate degree that hasn't helped me to secure a job. Both seemed like positives at one point in my life and I probably thought they were shaping me for the better, but in the end, I can't say I'm really better off in a practical sense. Maybe just mentally better off because of lessons learned).

Idk? Everyday I've existed has shaped me.

Hm..well alot of very deep,things happened to me..things I thought I never would find a way through..Somebody did heal so very much of my heart,loved me beyond all words..I would light his world
this I knew,because he deeply showed me, was easy to give this back so easy,he told me I have taught you nothing,you are love,it is who you are..he was the most significant person in my life thus far..I cherish the memory,and was blessed, to have had him
in my life..he did teach me,his strength was beautiful..powerful,unforgettable..Miss him with every inch of
my being..I give back my thanks every time I speak these words..hope, heaven shines,sparkles.. and my words are felt and heard..<3 Sorry..I am lost ..again..I will fix it as promised.*
