A very personal and powerful story.
Yes life is what you make of it and the trials and tribulations are an essential part of life. It is actually these times where we have the most opportunity for growth and thus is a blessings!
Great to see you are living a great life now and evolved from this experience. Moments of "enlightenment" even if temporary are very powerful.
