Sudden realizations...

[KeilCoppes]

Once upon a time in english class I heard the following definition regarding novels:

Turning point: the point at which the protagonist comes face to face with a previously unrealized truth.​

That's a lot more significant than what I was thinking about, but have you ever come face to face to something obvious that you hadn't thought about? Even silly things, like

Why do bodybuilders walk the way they do?

After working out last night on legs I know it's either that or fall over. They don't have a lot of other choices until they heal back up, and since they're bodybuilders they go and do it again. :^)​

Anything from the ridiculous to the sublime - anyone?

(I also have on good authority that such a realization is an epiphany. Tada! :^) )

i suddenly realized...

that i once wanted an avatar that gave a general impression of how i looked, and i got it.
that cell phones are more hassle than they're worth.

I remember when I was learning to drive a manual transmission car... I was waiting at a light to turn left. I turned and got up to speed and then later realized that I had shifted without thinking about it for the first time. I know.. weird thing to remember.

One day I was really irritated using the advanced reply feature on this website because I couldn't copy and paste other people's statements.

Then I realized that all you have to do is scroll down to the bottom of the page and there are all of the thread's responses.

Convenient, eh?

I'll be back when I can think of some............

I was trying to make the hard decision to change from a pre-med major (a major that is family supported and accepted) to an English major (a major not accepted by family and with no guarantee of a job post graduation--yet something I actually enjoy). My sudden realization was that not only does money not always equal happiness, but if English really is the road in which God wants me to take--and I think it is--then he'll give me all the tools to survive and succeed.

How about significant things that took a long time to learn?
