Serious The most life changing event in your life?

Doing the dance here but... how about a little fun with some seriousness...

What is the most life changing / pivotal moment you've had thus far in your life?


For me... It would be finishing my Bachelor's in Music Tech at a, "famous and not to be named" school in Boston for music...

I worked about a year on a project with one of my professors. Or, professors in training... I contributed (/composed, recorded, mixed, mastered)half of the music... and troubleshooted the majority of the tech side of the performance (It was a disaster until I put all our live tech on -1- laptop; cause I guess that's crazy to think you don't need tens of thousands of dollars to run 30 live vsts at once to please your -sponsored gear lust-). Promised all this free publicity, etc.. got interviewed a few times... absolutely none of that aired... I was a footnote in the program... and my "partner" got his doctorate and was awarded a long term position at the school...

Yeah... I realize the irony of posting that here...

Here's the takeaway... I finally realized then... even in something you fell is pureyou pursue blindly for love... you can never trust anyone 100% in a capitalistic society when we all have to eat and there's not enough to go round the table...

You live you learn...

The lesson was hard... the evolution was priceless...
