What is an Epiphany?

[i-pif-uh-nee]

–noun, plural -nies.
a sudden, intuitive perception of or insight into the reality or essential meaning of something, usually initiated by some simple, homely, or commonplace occurrence or experience.

Above is the definition of epiphany according to dictionary.com. To me, an epiphany is somewhat like a self-realization. An example would be like, finally figuring out what you were put on this earth to do or accomplish.

A moment like this could influence the way a person foresees life therefore, changing their actions or behavior. It could also influence their perspective of life.
