Life Changing Experiences In My Life

Throughout my life obstacles appear around every corner. From the time when I was a newborn and my mother had found out she had breast cancer to when my parents had told me they were going to get a divorce. For some, these situations may be depressing to talk about or even uncomfortable. In my mind, however, the more I talk about it and see how it’s changed the way I view life is a more than beneficial opportunity.

Everyone tells you life isn't easy right? That there’s going to be obstacles that you’ll have to overcome . For me, the biggest obstacle was to change, I couldn’t be another failure in the system, neither be a burden. Many fail to realize that change isn’t bad, is to better yourself on who you really are.

One of the most life-defining experiences that I’ve ever been through happened during the summer before my freshman year of high school. Back then, I was living in Marshall with my dad and my two younger sisters. Marshall isn’t that big of a town, merely hosting 400 residents. Everyone had a connection with one another, including my classmates and peers. We were all friends because each and every one of us knew better than to exclude another person, especially because there wasn’t enough of us kids around to form cliques. We’d entertain ourselves by endless games of basketball, storytelling, and late night outdoors games. In the small village of Marshall, us kids always found a way to have fun together.

Problems can be turned into something good.When people overcome obstacles they become more strong.When ever you have problems you need to solve them in order to be happy.

Life isn't always fairy tales and happy endings. It can deliver obstacles that strike like punches. These challenges are supposed to prepare us for whatever may come and help us develop along the way. I know that this kind of development is important but, it is not easy. My obstacles have definitely started to shape and create the person I am today and who I will become.

Having defining moments, critical choices and pivotal people in your life is very important. Its something to base your life off of, having these key parts in your history is what built you to who you are today. It builds character and helps you learn the right and wrongs in life. I believe without having defining moments, critical choices and pivotal people in your life whether they are something as small as a coach teaching you a new play to maneuver, or a bumper on bumper car crash that sent you to the hospital for stitches can look small but have a deep impact on your life. Using these incidences to build your life can make you the person who you are today.

An accident last year changed my attitude towards life . That accident had a great impact on me , it taught me to treasure what i have and to treasure those people around me more . Although the accident was not life threatening , it was still the scariest thing i had ever been through in life . It was an accident that no one would have expected and wanted it to happen .

It was one life-changing experience I was seven years old when I became grateful for the things that I had. I remember packing for this big trip my parents were planning for a year now. I precisely recall my mother telling me to go through my closet and pick clothes I did not use to give away, I didn't know why, but I didn't ask, I just did it. As the day got closer I remember my parents had accumulated a great amount of things to give away. I quite didn't understand why they were gathering so many things and for what reason.

I cannot think of a single event that has changed my life. I believe that who someone is determined on their genes and how they were raised over a long period of time, such as who their parents are, where they live and how others sway their beliefs. Because of the thing that happen to use in the past it will determine the decisions we make later on. The outcome of those decisions will further change who we are. Also sudden tragic events will change a person's life by making their outlook on life different. Although someone's opinions on the world doesn't have to be changed by bad thing happening to them. For instance, if someone is going through a hard time and suddenly something changes to make things easier people have more faith than they

As a child I have always been known to my family as a quiet person. My parents would always tell me to be more open, to speak loudly, to get out of my shell. I really couldn’t find a way to express myself to get out what I was feeling inside to the my parents and to the world. As I started getting older I found ways to express myself through writing, and painting. Although I didn’t speak much I wrote my thoughts down in my little journals at home, though it being positive or negative, it became like therapy for my soul. I would write about moments that impacted my life and would then use them as lyrics that I would record myself signing to. These songs would serve as motivation to keep me moving forward. As an introvert I used creativity

Life is built on a foundation of individual bricks that when mortar is applied, the foundation becomes strong. There are many different events that have contributed to the process of personal growth and change within me that have helped me to become who I am today. Events, experiences, and people have molded me and prepared me for future obstacles and opportunities. I tend to learn from every situation that I am confronted with. There is one particular event that made my life turn from a dark and dreary path to one of hope. For once in my life, I actually wanted to not only survive; but to live. One of the most positive moments that shaped my life was the day that I met the most influential and inspiring person who touched my soul; Makayla Regan. Her presence and friendship had a huge impact on my perception of life, promoted a positive mindset, and helped me to establish positive values for myself.

Over the span of my lifetime, I have had many life changing experiences. From good to bad every aspect has shaped me and made me the person I am today. The biggest challenge and experience I have had is tearing my MCL multiple times. I never realized how much of a challenge it would be going through surgery, rehab, and the overall complications of a recurring injury. Tearing my MCL made me learn how to overcome obstacles and helped me work harder than I ever had to bounce back from the injury.

A life-changing event is not something to be taken lightly. Throughout our lives, we encounter many obstacles and changes, some of which bring us joy and excitement, others of which may be hard for us to handle. When I look back on my relatively short life, it may, at first, be hard for me to think of an event that has truly molded and shaped the person that I am today. I have encountered several changes, but at the time, they felt like mere speed bumps along my path. Looking back now, it is easy for me to see that these changes were not by chance, but were placed in my path to form the person that I am today.

Defining a single moment that inspired a significant change in my life and who I am as a person is a difficult task because changes often occur over long periods of time in my life and rarely in individual moments. While combing my memory for life changing moments, I realised I was asking the wrong questions. I shouldn’t search for climactic memories that stand out as good stories because I am not just telling a story. Instead, I’m describing a part of how I became the person I am and I quickly decided upon the memory of the first time I led a class at my karate studio.

Everyone has that one experience that makes them look at life with a new set of eyes. My life changing experience happened a little earlier than most. It was the summer before first grade. We had gotten an exceptional amount of rain in the past months even though it was summer. I did not notice, though, because summer was every six year old's favorite holiday, next to Christmas and their birthday. My summer was supposed to be like any other but it quickly took a turn. For the best or for the worst? That is debatable.
