Defining moments in life. Moments that define or make clear what path to take, or not to take, how you really feel, what you really think. Moments to take stock and wake up to what you have that has been taken for granted, or what you don't have that you realize you don't want to live without any longer.
Some defining moments are very difficult, like divorce and death of a loved one. Some defining moments are truly amazing like the birth of a child or a graduation or a long-coveted job just granted.
Some are more subtle, less startling perhaps in the moment but no less poignant and no less defining. The truth of such a moment hits home when it happens but sinks in more deeply over time.
Two car accidents, two cars totalled, just over two days apart. Two family members, both physically unharmed, both emotionally taking stock.... as am I.
PS....just learned, believe it or not, of a third family accident that just happened today as well. Broken foot this time is "all". Okay, enough already.
