That was a memorable day to me, for it made great changes in me. But it is the same with any life. Imagine one selected day struck out of it, and think how different its course would have been. Pause you who read this, and think for a moment of the long chain of iron or gold, of thorns or flowers, that would never have bound you, but for the formation of the first link on one memorable day. Charles Dickens
About This Quote

If you had to pick one day of your life, or even one moment of your life, when things changed for you, when you were the most different from the person you are today. Why do you think that is? It’s because that day or moment in time forged a new path in your life. When you look back on any given day, there are always ways in which it was different from what it would have been without that one moment in time. So, when we talk about ‘memory’, we are really talking about ‘choice’. Choice is what makes us different each and every day.
