Life-altering events

Have you ever wondered how long it takes to change your life? What measures the time to make it life changing? Is it high school or collage? How about testing our body by running a marathon? Does it consist of keeping a journal? Can your life change in a matter of a day, week, month or even years? What is a valid life-changing event?

I think about my life day to day and how it seems like everyone is always in a hurry to grow up, get head of the game, and travel the world. But really, who are we kidding, when you’re young an hour can change your life.

Major life changing invents of my life as a young adult happened in 2008. The first was finally standing up for myself and walking way from my home with my mother and father. There comes a point in your life when you decide enough is enough and mine came in June. I had enough of the ‘you better do this and that’. The ‘you’re not good enough, smart enough, grown up enough.’ I moved in with a good friend of mine and it was great. I was making money, finishing school and finally at peace.

July 2008 I was in a car accident. Waiting at a red light with a green arrow to go and LG/JG stuck and hit me with their s10 truck. I went to the ER with my friend Steffie, who was in the car with me to get check out. We both have back problems now, but cannot afford to fix them. The LG/JG family took me to court to say I was at fault and tried to sue me for 100K. Ridiculous right? The judge thought so too and I won the case. Last week I get a summons for court, the LG/JG family is suing me again for the same thing! In shock I took the information to my lawyer and he took care of it. They’re getting a settlement from the insurance company!!! Yes, I’m still currently paralyzed from that thought. The G family makes me want to vomit. This changes my life because I am now learning of the scum in this world other than creepy ‘photographers.’
