answer:Not sure if this counts as epiphany, but a couple of years ago I had a rather sudden realization that I was full of shit. I had been developing and holding on to thoughts and ideas for so long that I thought that they defined me. I realized that those things that I was clinging to were the same things that were keeping me from actually living and enjoying life. So, I made some serious life changes and can honestly say that I have shed many of the shackles of the former concept I had of myself. I am living more honestly and I am more able to be present. I am going to be gone in the blink of an eye, and all of my bullshit means nothing. Enjoy this amazing fucking life moment by moment, tom_g, or you might as well be gone already.
