The Turn Around Moment

The turn around moment is the pivotal point in your life when you realized that things in your life has changed. As I reflect back on my past I realized that I experienced several turn around moments.

 The first turn around moment in my life came when I received my first job. As a adolescent I was caught in a time space continuum, where minutes were hours and each day of your life was a major event that never seemed to end!.  The first paycheck open Pandora's Box. Once I acknowledge that minutes and hours determined how big or small my check would be. It made my time space continuum disappear, and now hours seem to vanish like seconds in a day, and time was just something that we occasionally referred to.

The day that I graduated from high school was my first realization that the turn around moment had begun. I knew that nothing was ever going to be the same and it was time for me to GROW UP!

Having children is usually the next moment of the turn around. As you watch them being born, that is not the icing on the cake. The turn around moment for most people is,  that it seem like yesterday that you were changing diapers and now you are putting them through college. " Does anyone know what happened to the time space continuum, where minutes were hours and each day of your life was a major event that never seemed to end"?

The next moment of  the turn around begins around the time that you hit that forty area and grey hair is becoming quite apparent and bifocal is something you need to see up close. You look in the mirror and the person that you see is different!

The most significant Turn around Moment is when you bury your parents and everyone that you once referred to is now gone.  The turn around moment is not quite what you thought, you see the turn around moment is growing old and when your realization of the truth has began and the cycle of life and your destiny is going to end.

My moment of truth is nothing more that a realization that everyone is going to experience the turn around moment.  They will be born, and they will die...
