Was there any “BIG” life experiences that transition you into a different person than you were previously? Share your story…

Family is an exception for me throughout my life… There was a time when I wanted to end my life. I was innocent, good, nice, and a giver in the past but now I have become a taker, it took me years of suffering to adapt to new changes after betrayal. Now, I have started to become stronger and independent than ever. I have realized that a person needs to learn how to be emotionally independent and find happiness within themselves first in order to live a healthy life. There is not a single person that you should trust 100% because people make mistakes otherwise we would have been angels. I kept going with the flow of my life, struggled supppppeeeer hard, came out alive and happy :)…Now, I appreciate little things that makes life AWESOME!!!..

During the transition, I have become very much selfish and oblivious to other people’s feelings. I am a completely different person now with good and bad changes.

one very bad situation in my life during college and immediately afterwards changed my perspective on desi men. I was way too naive and innocent was never around too many desi men other than my bros so i figured all were sweet like my brothers, boy was i wrong.

but since then i've come across quite a few men that are sweet, respectful, know how to treat a woman, would never take advantage of her when she's not at her best so, men on GS included, i think that was the most life changing one and made me finally grow up

Re: < < < experience of life > > >

Yes, I had one...where I learnt that you can't depend on anyone..not even your family. I was a very sweet and innocent girl..always wanted to make everyone happy...but since then learnt that it is better to make myself happy first, and then think abt the rest. Learnt to be strong, and do what I feel is right..not what everyone else feels I should do.

But that experience also brought me closer to Allah, and that is the only reason I am alive...

^yea i think religion(parts of all religions including islam for me) and faith in God has a lot to do with the strength, but for me my family has a lot to do with it too, they are the awesomest out there. I love them and i hope God always looks over them.

Re: < < < experience of life > > >

life has many many bumps...if one of them knocks u down, don't despair...u may be DOWN but u are NEVER OUT...i learned this lesson the hard way. there is always a bright morning after the darkest of the dark nights...be optimistic...never give up hope and always looks forward for Allah's Bounties in future and be thankful for the ones that He has bestowed upon u already!...:)

I bet you were on psychedelics before you learnt your lesson. I see it in your posts.

Re: < < < experience of life > > >

yup. and no.

Re: < < < experience of life > > >

Yes.

Re: < < < experience of life > > >

Yes I would like to think it was Parenthood... that is the new positive change in me but alas the change may have been too late.

Before that the two biggest collisions of Positive and then Negative were an on and off time period from the days I rose from the mere ranks of common soldiers to the day I recieved my Commision and then from the humiliating loss of one War to the dizying hieghts of another in which it was a brilliant victory.... theres one thing I hate though and thats the constant see-saw motion in life... I guess it's just life but sometimes you wish there was a neutral gear.

Damn the Kargil War.

Re: < < < experience of life > > >

WTF???.... "psychedelics".... I was just innocent, good girl, honest , and a giver!!! I wasn't a phsyco ..lol.. What do u see in my posts?

Re: < < < experience of life > > >

LOL... :P... What was the reason behind Kargil War ?

Re: < < < experience of life > > >

Haha I was talking to our friend Faakhta up there :)

Re: < < < experience of life > > >

Dont think I will ever know the real reasons behind that war I was just a mere soldier doing my duty and at the time I couldnt care less about the Politics of the matter all I knew was that my Regiment was on the front line and we took the worst of the Indian assaults. Initially our positions moved forward but were bogged down and then the flanking battalions pulled back and were forced into retreat.

Next thing we knew the NLI was the only thing between the Indians and our homes... so we were the only fighting battalion and suffered massive casulaties but never left our positions despite the chaos around us.

As far as I know Nawaz Sharif and I think it was Vaaj Paaye back then were both utter retards and Sharif I think started a stupid War as did those JI pests...

For me it was my first real War and it made me sick...

Yes things were never the same after I made the transition from nappies to pull ups.

I love this song :naak:

Re: < < < experience of life > > >

This experience would have been tough, did you see dead people scattered all over? It probably gave you a new approach towards life as a soldier.
