That moment

We all have that defining moment.
Whether we realize it or not,
It is there.
We never know when it will be,
Or what form it will come in.

But what about the other moments?
The moments that allow for that moment.
Do you notice them?
Do you realize their significance?
Each one has its own importance.

That job you were fired from?
It lead you to this job,
This big break that is your dream come true.
What if you didn't get fired?
You wouldn't have had that defining moment.

That girl that broke your heart?
The one that hurt you so bad,
You moved across country.
You met the women of your dreams.
How else could you have that defining moment?

Your defining moment isn't actually a moment,
It is actually several moments.
Moment that caused other moments,
That lead to your pivotal moment.
What are your little moments?
