When would you say the best day of your life was? What happened, and what made it stand out from others?
I don't have just one best day, just as I don't have just one worst day. A lot of horrible things have happened to me, and a lot of great things too.
I have had many best days of my life. I'm blessed to have had a pretty decent life filled with love and a wonderful family and awesome friends. Sure there have been some crappy times, but the good out weighs the bad. Blah blah blah since you did ask a question, i'll stop rambling and attempt to answer it. The day that popped into my head as the best day at this point, was november 19th of this year. I got to hold my precious daughter for the first time right after she was born.
There’s so many great things that happened to me. My life was exciting filled with adventure, traveling, and lived with different kinds of people. I experienced so many happy memories that I can not chose one from all of those. All I can say is that I value and appreciate all the good things that happened to me. I worked really hard to get to where I am right now. I do not have regrets, I do not dwell on the past, but I live my life to the fullest. I’m glad that I have family and a few friends that really care about me. that’s all it is that is worth living for. On top of all your achievements and success in life, the best way to celebrate it is with the company of people who were always there in the good and bad times. In general, I love my life, and I’m really happy living it each day. To answer your question, every day may be a struggle, but I consider it a part of the best days of my life because those struggles helped me become the person I am right now. That makes it better.
Lots of good days. i'm not going to ramble on how good my life is and blah blah blah, because everyone has good and bad. it's just what you do with it. Anyway, the day that makes me the happiest would be December 4th. The day Dan and I were married.

I've just had more or less a whole week of the best days of my life, lol. I spent 4 days with some friends in Nottingham, meeting my newBF for the very first time in the flesh, then just 3 days ago, he invited me back to his house for a few days. His parents took an instant, liking to me, lol. Its just been cool all this week, just chilling out, having a laugh, not thinking much about family stuff and other issues happening at home.

Oh, my best day hasn't come yet.... the best day I can think of is the day I fly down to see my BF. But I can't think of a good day, a particularly good one anyway. Oh yes, wait, I can think of one.... August 19th. That's when me and the guy I've liked for like, since February, and I got together.
hmmm. Best day? wait, let me search for that in my shorts packet.
I'm sorry, couldn't find one so far.
Raaj.
fucking lmfao Raa+j. I really don't like it when people ask me best and worst questions, lol, because I can never give them a straight answer. I have too many "best" days to put down ... So let's just say, my life is amazing and I love it to death and everyday for me, could be "best" days in the making :P
well since the saddest days board is going a lot and people are getting sad and crying. lets cheer up a bit with this one eh?
the best days of my life lets see. in no particular order.
these aren't exactly days but moments but yeh...
when my friends call me or text me just to say hi and see how i'm doing. when they show me that they care with little things like that. when they look for me to go places and do things together. when they make me feel i am not the most worthless thing existing.
when i find a new song and fall in love with it.
when it snows. which it was until a while ago but it's already starting to rain...
each and every second that i can spend in the woods and forest, because for some reason i feel like i'm finally back home.
when i make a new friend, and our friendship grows strong and real.
the day i met the awesome stella for the first time and she was going all hyper to get my attention.
and yeh, there are other things not necessarily big events that can make my day.
and i know for sure that the day when the hellish mess i'm going through will end is going to be definitely the best day of my life.
The day I got my george kitty!!!!
hmmm, let me think.
most definitly the day i got my little molteeze shitsue.....he's like my baby and is a very spoilt doggy, and so is his brother who is my mother's dog.
the day i started in radio for the very first time. it was both scary and the best day, because radio was, and still is my dream.
the day i got my own first computer, and screen reader, because it meant that i could finally do more things for myself, and not have to rely on a sighted person to look things up for me. i had one when i was in high school, but it belonged to the school, so i had to give it back when i finished.
Well, like Lory, I really can't think of a specific day, so some moments...
Seeing Linkin Park both times I did. While that might just be a band to people, they mean a lot to me, so it was really special to me.
Whenever I get into a relationship, wheterh it be friend or dating, when the person treats me as an equal, with trust and much care, and I know I'm not just giving to not get in return.
Whenever I hang out with my friends because that's when I feel like I actually fit in or belong.
And well, for everything else, I really just try to take it as a learning experience because life sucks if you look at things negatively. I mean, sure, some things just fucking suck. But also, life can be great if you just don't let things get in the way of your happiness. I mean, if someone treats you bad, it's just easier to believe it's a fault of theirs, and you are fine. And really, if you think otherwise, where's that going to get you? So that's how I am in life. Might seem egotistical, but that's how I stay happy.
It was 08-08-08 and no I am not kidding. I was on a fishing trip with camp bloomfield and met this gentleman that was just incredible. Well most of the time I was either fan gushing or ranting. Yeah, I know immature. So, anyways, I wasn’t aware at that very moment that it would actually turn my life around, but it did. I am more mature, a much better communicator, and actually live in reality. He actually listened to me, was very sincere about his thoughts, and was quite a gentleman. The best example of a gentleman as you will get.
Actually I think some of you might know him. Charles Pascal?
Like many on here have said, I do not have just one "best day!" However, I will mention a few of them...
1. When I began to make friends. That didn't happen in one day, but as those friendships developed, I learned to appreciate them more and more.
2. When my friend Esther started talking to me again. Again, this particular day was not so great in itself, because there were still struggles here, but if it hadn't been for certain circumstances, i would definitely have considered it one of the best! i really love all of my friends, as if they were family!
3. Every convention I go to! I really love nfb conventions, because it is a time for me to get to see my close friends, and spend time with them. Again, this all goes back to me seeing my friends like family! Of course, there are times when I'd rather be away, but if it hadn't been for my friends, I dont think there would be anything worth living for!
4. Discovering new things. These are moments when I see myself most positive. Discovering things like new websites that I might enjoy, mostly music related, making new friends who are interesting, discovering new radio stations is also a very exciting thing for me!
Also having times to perform is a blessing! Graduation from Criss Cole was a relief, and spring and summer are almost always filled with good times! Even going out to enjoy the sun is one of the most awesome things I can experience!
Cumbia concerts is also something I really enjoy doing, and any time I get to go see one or more of my favorite groups is always something worth living for!
Traveling is something I really enjoy! And any time I get to do it is always great!
And finally...
5. Cesar. Any time I have gotten to spend with him has always been some of the best days of my life! He's someone I really enjoy spending time with, and any time I get to do so, it's very enjoyable, and there's always something to remember!
I truely believe that I have not actually experienced the day I can consider to be the best, I know that is still yet to come! But some of the things I can see happening, or at least things I might hope for, are these:
That one day, Cesar's family would accept me.
That one day, my mom and I could have a cool conversation, maybe she could even experience my world for a while!
That one day, I could actually feel like a part of my family! Instead of someone else...
...
And if those are not possible:
That one day, I can find the love of my life!
I know I have probably missed some stuff, most likely stuff that goes back to earlier points in my life, but those days which I used to consider some of the best, have now seemed pointless since 2002.
And the best thing that had ever happened to me was this:
When I left to Austin, I found myself! I finally got to know who I really am! And not who everyone wanted me to be! I discovered what I really enjoy, and who I was, and have been all along!
Also I think it is only fair that I mention this. The experiences I have had with Mike have been some of the best! Even though I am not feeling too great about them at the moment, i know there was a reason for them, and i am greatful for what he's done for me, in spite of all the bad! He took my hand and showed me the world, and I am thankful for that! He may have some issues, but his ability to show me the things blind people are capable of is something I will always remember. He may not see it that way, and neither would a lot of people who saw the wrong he did to me, but I will never forget the way he showed me things I never would have thought possible fo blind people! Training has helped me a little, but thanks to him, I am more independent!
Anyway, enough said, probably close to the character limit, but thanks for reading!
I think that most people would agree that there's not just one best day or worst day of one's life. As others before me have said, I've had many wonderful days, yet some terrible things have happened to me. There are many days that stand out in my mind, both happy and exciting, and sad and lonely.
I sort of retract a lot of what I said in my last post; he and I are no longer together. I think now, we're better friends than before, so going to see him would still be fun.
Lately I have had both bad and good days. One day was particularly bad, yet particularly good, because out of a bad and uncomfortable situation, I got a good friend. When most go through what happened, they avoid the other entirely, but somehow I think that friendship grew stronger as well, as much sense as that doesn't make. lol.
I like conventions and things as well; Youth Slam was awesome and so was the follow-up. I want to go to the next one. Some of the best things and most unexplainable things happened to me at the follow-up to the youth slam.
Best moments:
When I got my kitten. Sadly, he died. Poor thing, at least he went quickly.
When my friends listen. Its hard for me to speak because not many listen but they don't know just how much it means to me when they don't think I fall on my face when trying to explain things, or they don't think I've lost my mind. Its complicated but I love each of them dearly, they're as close to me as my family should be. But family of the heart is far stronger than any damn blood tie, and that I learned in a way I wish I didn't.
yeah erm can't think of anything more.
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band at Nassau Coliseum, March 10, 2008. It was my first concert, and no day, ever, has gotten me so high on an experience...Other things occured supplimentary to that, but we won't go there.
