What was something someone else told you that changed your life?
True story: The dude's name was Mark, and he was in my shop class back in 9th grade. Abrasive and sarcastic, he got tired of seeing me puttering around the shop all year long and simply told me to get involved in some activities. "Talk to people, have some fun once in a while". And I actually did -- came out of my shell, joined a few sports and the drama club, and learned that junior high didn't have to TOTALLY suck. Mark was generally a crank but on that particular day, he made a difference. I'll have to buy him a beer some day, assuming he's not serving time or walled up in someone's basement.
Anyone else have a profound encounter that put you on a new path?

This lady and I were talking, just chit chat, and she looked at me and said, "With every problem that I think I have, I ask myself, in ten years what difference is it going to make? Will it still be affecting me in ten years? If the answer is no, I don't worry with it." After that, I learned not to take the whole thing so seriously. She was like in her 80's and very nice. :)

Yes, she said those 3 little words, "I am pregnant". The whole world changed it's focus that day. I was no longer the center of my own universe. The center was now in her womb.

That's a good story!
Someone once said to me"Don't give up 5 minutes before the miracle" and she was right--when I wanted to quit, I didn't, and the miracle happened! : )
