What is the most profound thing you have experienced in life?

Hmm... probably the moment that I realized how many people in life are putting on a show. My dad is an excellent example of this.

My dad goes through life with this aire of being in control and able to handle adversity. One of his really big things is that he feels his martial arts background allows him to be someone of high integrity, to handle extreme situations calmly, and that he doesn't approach his life from a position of fear because of it.

Covid especially, but I would say that there have been a lot of situations where I've seen that my dad lives an extremely fearful and ultimately tumultuous life. When Covid struck, he was very fearful. When legal controversies come up, I've seen him become a bully. I see him constantly being played for a fool by ukrainian women online. Women someone confronts him with physic conflict, he immediately backs down. Frankly, there's nothing about the way he approaches his life that I want to emulate.

Seeing how counterfeit so many people are when you put the tiniest bit of pressure on them has really changed the way I approach and understand people.

Fear kept the human race alive. Going through life without fear will be short and foolish. Not supporting him at all but a healthy appreciation of the dangers of human existence is a good thing.

[FilmGuy93]

@Sixgunsound Eh... It's like anything else; there's a balance to be found.

This happened twice. I had been in extreme social isolation. Getting deep into me. Think deep meditation for hours. Days on end. Yoga as a break from the medication study of religious works. But only in myself. No one else. I had direct religious conaxt with the devine, in one instance Lord Shiva and another Artemis the huntress. Both changed me in deep and profound ways.

I did mushrooms once. Somewhere in the trip i realized that I actually really am ok with myself and I actually love me for who I am. I fully accepted myself and realized that its ok, everything is ok.

[Brandi555]

That’s really awesome.

[mandyfire98]

Yeah it was definitely an amazing experience that i was so nervous about at first.

A bunch of NATO MPs showed up at my door one day and said they intercepted traffic that a team was coming to kill me and my team for the second time in one month. They (bad guys) were sending more trucks but fewer people than last time, so I wasn't sure if that was an upgrade or a downgrade, and when I told my team we had split opinions as to whether we should be more or less thrilled about that. I thought it was a shame that I didn't have a pet wolf or flaming bagpipes, because if you're going to go out, go out freakishly weird and maybe somebody will make a song about you.

I had some issues with my throat back in the day. Tonsil abscessed I spent almost a week in the hospital. While there the only one to visit from my social circle was my ex girlfriend who actually came from school in another city.

After returning home I was told to just rest for awhile to make sure infection didn’t return. My sister rented Trainspotting & this scene at the end in particular at 3:13 mark he says “my so called mates.”

I had an epiphany then realized the people I considered friends were nothing of the sort. I started hanging out with coworkers and eventually ran into my so called friends who acted surprised asking where I’ve been?

I said same place I always was and walked away never looked back.

[Andres77]

it varied... usually associated with death.
my first funeral, a kid that stood up to bullies for me.
my dad's death.
when i worked in a hospital, terminal patients beging me (a 20 yr old kid at the time) to help them die because they couldn't stand the pain.
visiting my mom in her dementia and she no longer recognizes me.

[Sixgunsound]

I had a patient beg me to shoot her because she couldn't deal with her terminal nerve pain. It sucks.

The loss of my father to cancer at the age of 42.

I was 11 years old at the time.

That was 53 years and 3 days ago.

To this day, it's still the single most significant event in my life.

[TheMadLad]

Getting bankrupt because of another war funded and motivated by America to serve its international interests.

You know what!

Fuck America.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

My late moms death and when she gave birth to me, we had a long labor for her, she labored 24 hours with me and they wouldn't give a C-Section.

[worldscolide]

The realization that I had a lot of changes to make if I was going to be deserving of the person I wanted to marry. The absolute mountain of growing up I had to do..

[worldscolide]

And I was 29 when I realized this.

[Bruins37]

The Air & Space museum in Virginia. I had no idea the kind of air power that we have produced as a country.
