PB&J was the first food I grew a liking for. It got to the point it was the only thing I wanted. Sleeping anywhere and everywhere was also a common theme when I was young. This is when I grew a sense of trust for my surroundings.

My best friend from the age of seven to now. The person I tribute the development into my current day self just as much as I do my parents. He is the person who best understands me and for that I often go to him when I need someone to talk to.

The first real piece of adversity I faced in my life. Not to downplay the tragedy but many positives came out of this hardship. I grew a facet of my current day mindset that day being to celebrate the blessing of life and the memories you have with others rather than dwell on the passings.

My family has had our fair share of cats throughout my life but none are quite like Clyde to me. Sure he's a cat and all but I still can't help but feel like he's always been there for me when I needed someone. He never fails to put a smile on my face and I'm truly grateful for him.

The happiest period of my life. A time where I was doing my favorite things with my favorite people. A time that can also be labeled as my step into adolescence. I was physically going through puberty and mentally facing all sorts of intense emotions.

Probably my favorite job ever. The relationships that blossomed during my time here I wouldn't trade for anything.

My escape from reality. For the hours I'm on the field I forget about everything and enjoy quality time with some of my favorite people.

A decision I will live with for the rest of my life. My dad/role model can be given most of the credit for this decision as he was a lawyer himself.

The countless sleepless nights paid off. A time where I found out so much about myself through the adversity I faced.

My first taste of the real world and step into adulthood. Life lessons that were otherwise impossible to obtain were made during this first adulthood job.

Living alone for the first time was not quite what I expected. Just about every emotion there is seemed relevant to me at one point. This is where I became truly independent.

The best day of my life. For a brief period of time I forgot about the world around me and enjoyed a milestone that will live with me forever.

Financial security is a blessing and the biggest reason my wife and I decided we are going to have our first kid.

I know I said the day of my marriage was the best day of my life but know I'm all but sure. Getting to sit down with my parents once the day was all over was a moment I'll never forget. I grew appreciative of my surrondings; the people, inanimate objects, and the world itself.

Something that was merely prevalent in peoples fantasies is now a reality. I must say this is definitely one of the greater inventions of the 21st century. The technology between the vehicles to reduce accidents by 90% is fascinating.

The most important person to me and that won't change because she is gone. I felt a weird sense of joy on the day of the funeral. I got just about everything you could ask for out of a human life and for that this day was more of a celebration than anything.

A virus that seemed to have done its harm and gone away came back with a strand that was like no other before it. Living in complete isolation required a great deal of mental fortitude and I can be glad it only lasted for 3/4th's of a year.

With my company no longer able to pay for the amount of employees they once had I was unfortunately laid off. With my recent success in real estate & stocks I officially let go of my desk job for the remainder of my life.

With such rapid lifestyle changes over the past few years I entered a brief midlife crisis. Fortunately enough my wife and kids were there for me and I was able to bounce back rather quickly.

# data[].attributes.body
A time that made for quite a bit of self questioning and reflection. I felt as if this was the time I entered "old age". I was content with my life thus far but sad of what was to come.

Climate change finally dealing the damages to the United States that were discussed in decades prior. Legitimate fears have arose about some states have unlivable conditions with no direction for a solution.

Seeing myself get diagnosed with something that has tormented my heritage severely was the biggest challenge of my life. Living with the knowledge you're declining in functionality is a mental block I will never be able to live with comfortably.

So much to think about that I think it'd be best to not think of anything.
