Adults, Share With Us The Exact Situation That Opened Your Eyes On How Others Live Differently Than You
When we're younger, it's normal to believe that how we live is exactly like how everyone else lives...until you experience a very specific moment that makes you think: "Oh, that's not what my life looks like."
So, I'm curious: when you were younger, what was the exact wholesome moment when you thought: "Oh, that's not how I live"?
For instance, maybe you went over to a friend's house, and you noticed that their parents actually seemed to be in love with one another, which was not how your parents were with each other.
Or maybe, you went on a field trip to a specific part of town you've never been to before and saw that people were living on farms and ranches and got to play with cows and horses, which completely blew your mind.
Or finally, perhaps, in high school, you went to dinner with a bunch of friends, and you saw how one friend was talking about their future in an awe-inspiring way, which influenced you to make a few changes in your life.
Also, what happened after when you had this eye-opening realization? Did you decide to chase this dream or aspire to be in a marriage like your friend's parents, etc.?
