watching the birth of my kids were the best moments in my life, the worst was (so far) when i divorced. i realized that there’s life after the divorce, but i’m their parent forever. the best moments so far outweights the worst by a large margin.
I mean good moments are just things like “romantic moment with someone who ghosted me a year later”, or “meeting a baby relative who I see three times a year”. Don’t get me wrong, they’re lovely and important moments, but there aren’t moments so good they change a person’s day-to-day life.
But bad moments obviously impact your life every day. You can’t walk correctly anymore. Someone you love is dead. You botched an opportunity so you’ll never escape poverty. Et cetera. Those moments obviously have a bigger impact because every single moment afterwards is determined by them.
The best moments in my life, are not the Happy ones, but the spiritual ones.
Driving with the bike at 2am to a field and lying there with noone being around in kilometers. I think thats where I had the most charactee development done, where I could filter out and learn from bad moments and be happy about them and appreciate happy days.
Pain was the only factor driving this, so in conclusion, the worst moments in my life made me the happiest person I could ever be. But the happy days are important too, to not think life is unfair and unbalanced. Its both, but worse moments will have a bigger impact than Happy moments.
The best moments of my life have mostly been fleeting and mostly inconsequential. The worst moments have mostly had long term consequences.
The best moments kind of help me coping with my worst one.

Definitely the worst, because I can hardly recall a great moment of my life, not to say the best…
But I think I am pretty pessimistically subjective about my experience because of depression out of trauma of the worst moment.
Hmmm I’d say that the worst felt/feels at times, like an electric shock that keeps going until it disipates and I can stop and sob for a bit so I can sort of function after it.
The best felt like a burst of heat and warmth that first time and now the memory of it feels like basking in the sun while humming something nice.
So I think they are both impactful in different ways. One completely incapacitates me because of how awful it was but the other gives me strength to keep on loving my life and keep finding the beauty in everyday things.
I’m not sure I’ve ever had a “best moment”.
My worst moment is probably that time when I defended myself against a bully in highschool and got arrested and I was in the police station for a few hours. Charges were eventually dropped. But I fucking hates those pigs. They didn’t investigate shit, they just took the words of the school administration and the bully.
ACAB, never trust the pigs.
I hate almost every “cop” character in Movies and Tv.
I wanted to watch The Wire but then there was a scene were the cop told his subordinates to lie. So I just stopped watching.
And in Stranger Things…
Season 4 Spoiler
Eleven fought her bully and got arrested. Like I can’t even continue watching the bullying scene, I just read the plot and its fucking infuriating
I can remember the best moment when the worst moment hurts me so I’d say the best has more impact.
The worst moments of my life seem to have been catalysts for the best ones. So, I guess the bad ones.
I second that. A simple attempted lunge out of misery does wonders. Shit can go down like an avalanche. But that works in both directions.
…with a lot of luck.
I can’t think of a best moment, though I’ve had a life that has gotten better over time, lots of good & great moments, none stands out as best.
Which leaves the worst moment, so I guess as an individual point it made a bigger impact.
I don’t know? They both pretty much shaped and changed my life from the moments they happened onwards…
The best moment of my life by far.
By “impact” do you mean that it has made a change in me or in my life, or that I still remember it every day? Or maybe both?
It can be both
Hmmm, in that case… I guess the worst.
But it’s funny, because that bad moment felt like I was sinking, but on a springboard to new heights; while the best moment so far feels like a beautiful view from above everything.
And for the moment, I’m still going up.
Great to hear, keep on rising.
