My Scream Into the Void

Defining Moments

There are these defining moments that determine who you are meant to become.
Most likely you've lived through several of them already.
When you defended someone who was being bullied.
When you chose integrity over pride.
When you were the friend that could be counted on.
When you chose to forgive and forget rather than hold a grudge.
When you chose to let go of something that would only bring temporary happiness and long lasting pain.
These moments shape us. Sometimes they hurt.
Sometimes they bring joy.
Sometimes they are really hard choices to make.
But they determine who you are and who you will be.
