Astral traveling and sleep paralysis...opened me up to many things...and Freddie Mercury.

Um....do you want to clarify just what you mean by..."opening up to Freddie Mercury"?

moving to a new country, finishing high school, dropping out of university, moving into a house (I've always lived in appartments), those are the big ones

The most. I think my life changed the most, and has been on the same path since, when my church's choir director put a mic in my hand and put me out front at the age of 4 years old. Until I was a teen and moved onward.

The Foster Valery experience.

1) childhood

2) Being ostracized by my peers in 5th grade had a radical effect on my worldview and approach to life which lasts to this day

2) my twenties

2003--Finding out I had breast cancer. It made me absolutely cherish everything, including mundane things that used to be annoying. Like my kids fighting over stupid things like who touched who. The dumb sayings that my husbands says over and over. The mounds of leaves that cover my yard every Fall. The first heavy snow of the year. You know, things like that.

I realized who my true friends were, and appreciated my family way more.

I became more brave and did things I never thought I could do.

I also paid attention to my health and stopped doing a lot of self destructive things.

I stopped saying the word "hate."

working for Prince. the experience was brief, not at all what i expected or hoped it would be, but the opportunity alone showed me that dreams come true and it allowed me to see the person who had been a god to me in human form. that shift was probably what changed me the most.

Did you punch him for all the grief he gives us? I would've taken one for the team and sunk a knuckle sandwich into his jaw.

One day, I'll get him a left hook.

madartista said:

Was it more from something you learned from him or the fact that you made your own dream into a reality?

heartbeatocean said:

yes, the making it a reality part.

madartista said:

When I think of experiences that changed my life, I think of mainly negative ones. But when I think of changing my life, I think of really positive things which are much more powerful, not really tied to events or circumstances but a spiritual attitude. And a living it out which happens every day.

Ridiculous. Pretty sure it was worse for the other party.

Finding out that a family member who I was close to was gossiping about me behind my back (actually catching them in the act of doing it when they thought I was asleep upstairs). My attitude towards this person has and never will be the same ever again, since the level of trust and respect that I had for them has been totally broken.
