We spend a lot of time wondering what is our purpose in life. Maybe it's just select moments. There's no telling how we have affected the world.

I say that I made great kids to carry on, and I guess that was my purpose for living.

But I can think of so many great moments. Randomly, one that just came to mind was when I definitely communicated with my cat. She brought me around the side of the house to show me there was a sponge lying there. She definitely kept signaling for me to follow her and to show me that! I thought that was so cool.

What is one of your great moments?

sitting on a mountainside cliff contemplating life. It was a very spiritual moment I have not since experienced.

I worked as a computer design engineer for the aerospace industry. One of the projects I worked on was a data link that was used to fly military air craft. I finished that project & moved on to a project at a different company. After the previous project was tested I talked with someone who worked on the testing. It was so awesome to know that my part of the project worked & the aircraft they tested it with didn't crash into the ocean.

Some of my finest moments though have been those "ah ha" moments when I learn something that totally explains the past or some concept that I just didn't get. I love learning new things & expanding my knowledge....it always gives me a good feeling

I had a terrible time finishing college. I took one term off. Then I went back for a term and failed every class deliberately, so I was kicked out. Somehow I pulled myself together and petitioned to be reinstated as a student. Then I made it through the last two years of college and got my bachelor's degree. All my friends were gone, and I felt like a ghost for those last two years. That was the toughest thing I have ever done.
Thanks for this!

Being a mother. And getting a second chance at marriage. With a truly wonderful man.

When I decided to start focusing on improving my mental/physical health, and learn new things.
