What is an incident that changed your life?

I can think of four. In chronological order.

  1. June 23, 1984-the day I married my wife.
  2. May 20, 1989-the day I decided to get sober.
  3. July 1, 1990- the day I quit my dead end job and went back to school to pursue my boyhood dream of becoming an over-the-road trucker. This could never have happened if it wasn't for both 1 & 2
  4. June 23, 2008- the day I woke up in ICU after a failed suicide attempt, which led to my diagnosis of bipolar and the end of the madness and depression that I had been plagued with my entire life previously.
