  1. i man was walking along alone and tired. his hed was down and his beard was long. he slumped as one foot dragged and then another. he could use a hand. he needed help. his legs gave up on him and he sat there on the ground. like a man right before his death his life was all there layed out in front of him and time just slowed. he got his help. he got what need and not a second too soon. maybe a god. maybe a cosmic force incharge of cocidence and irony but he had an epiphany.

  2. I think of a large open space and the sun rising, there’s and elephant and a tiger and they are talking to each other about things that are larger than either of them. They look up at the stars and the stars start to fall creating a shower of light upon the open field

  3. I had one once. I don’t quite remember what it was about. All I know is that I now divide my life into two sections; before and after it happend. Who I am now is not who I was before. Thats not to say that I can tell the difference.

  4. Epiphany comes the moment you let go of everything. But that moment is so hard to discern. Just when you thought you can start giving up, it shows up. But don’t try to hard to give up.

  5. …………….whats epiphany mean?………………………..it’s such a long, weird word! and i have no idea what it means!

  6. Epiphany is the one thing that I am lacking right now. I am so stuck with the pressure, the imaginary pressure that I build for myself. Epiphany is something that I want, something that I look for all the time, but it comes whenever you’re not looking for it. Maybe that is why it is so valuable when it actually comes. You never know when to expect it so you know you appreciate it.

  7. Epiphany. That’ “ah-ha!” moment. the moment when the dim skies above clear to show you the true answer. Not always for information, or even school. It is that moment when you look back and realize that that was the moment you first loved him. That was the moment you became friends. That was the moment you realized you would die to save them all. The moment you first began to care.

  8. Suddenly, the Doctor had it. She was his light in the darkness, the one keeping him going. She was his Amelia Pond.

    And he was NOT going to let her go.

    Rolling up his sleeves, he pushed the TARDIS’s lever down as far as it would go. He could do this.

    “Geronimo!”

  10. Realizing something about him and trying to come to terms with it, makes sense of it. Not sure where to go from here, with his words a bad aftertaste on the tongue, and again lingered something of him: a scent or maybe a thread of peace and I would think of this moment. I realized that I was being ridiculous. That I was deluding myself into this and that it would have been foolish of me to continue on with this hopeless pining.

  11. The storyteller’s last breaths were haggard. He fell to the floor, grasping out for – what? A hand? A memory? Anything, anything he could hold on to? It took only a moment, and he was gone. On his face was a look of confusion.

  12. users on this website have depressingly limited vocabularies. is it possible that most of them might be secretly cavemen? how can you pass seventh grade without having heard the word passionate used in a sentence before in some form or another? i mean it’s just weird. better check my privilege before i

  14. I was standing still one day and. no i’m not going to start it that way. He was standing there one day on the porch that wraps around the outside of his house flaking white paint and dusty and murky underneath. He was standing there and waiting for something to strike, and he is still standing there to this day, waiting.

  15. I have them every single day. Mine today, was that no matter what happens, the “good” show themselves. and the bad, do too. Being able to differentiate between the 2, and appreciate them both for what they are worth is where the magic lies. I like a little of both. It feeds my ego, and alter.

  17. One time, I had an epiphany: I was in love with him. Not the kind of stupid, teen love. The real deal kind of love. I had no idea what to do. This kind of thing was completely new to me. Me, who never got asked out in high school, who never even got a passing glance from any of the boys I thought were cute. This was great. I felt so happy all of a sudden, and I had no clue how to react.

  18. The cat just vomited on the carpet again. ” The cat just vomited” my partner called out. Finders keepers. This was one of those epiphanies. Usually I would clean it and now I don’t.

  19. He has a deep epiphany because he need to celebrate a vacation on Epiphany day.

  20. I have no idea what this word means, it makes me giggle. Epiphany? It sounds like… Elephant and fanny. Haha silly word, I mean, I’ve never heard it before. What does it mean? Who invented it? Hm sometimes its difficult to write about a word. But, you know, words are a powerful thing. There’s a word for everything, every object, emotion, idea, science, and place in the world. Maybe there are other worlds, with other words, with other names for objects, emotions, ideas, sciences and places. We could very well be just a spec of dust in the universe, as they say. The universe is huge, mysterious, and beautiful. Mystery can be a beautiful thing. Too many people associate mystery with fear. We should not immerse ourselves in a world of fear, we cannot live that way. We could not be healthy, not be alive, not truly living.

  21. Epiphany. Revelation. Rebellion, revolution, empires overthrown, and kingdoms deceased, and lost. Epiphany. Epistles. Apostles. Donphan. Epiphany. I feel like, if I could find my card right now, I’d be in the midst of Epiphany. Gah.

  23. Today I had an epiphany. I realized my divine purpose in life is to live out my dreams and do exactly what I want to do. No more working dead end jobs, it’s time to get serious about my career. I wasn’t meant to work as a hostess and coat check girl, I have way too much potential for that.

  24. I made a huge mistake today – I had the wrong epiphany.

    This wasn’t how it was supposed to go. At all. You’re supposed to learn your little life lesson properly and move on with your now infinitely better life, right? No, not happening. Not to me. Not today.

  26. All of a sudden. It is the change and an opportunity to look at yourself or the world in a different way. It can be the beginning of excitement., Or it could be a shock or a letdown.

  27. a sudden thought to realize that something isn’t what it seems. i often have epiphanies after the fact. i wish you could realize the bad before it’s too late.

  28. sometimes epiphanies are scary. sometimes they aren’t something exciting or special or fun. sometimes they are something you wish hadn’t happened.

  29. I just realized today that it is called the dry cleaners because they don’t use water. What an epiphany!! I don’t know why I never put two and two together but it really does make sense. I felt so dumb. But hey, that’s life, making a fool of yourself.

  30. It was like a lightning bolt in his head, brilliant and painful. It was like opening Pandora’s Box, never able to shove the thoughts back in. They would plague him forever until they finally broke him down.

    He was in love.

  31. Oh my god. What? This is amazing. I’m thrilled! So thrilled. But what now? Where do I go with this? Back home? Far away? I want to live. I just want to do everything.

  32. I had an epiphany one day, when i had an assignment in class to write a story. I am writing about a kid who can turn invisible, who becomes best friends with a blind kid. Yup. Don’t steal my idea, ya’ll. Ima get it published. :)

  33. One time at basketball practice I had an epiphany. I realized how a drill worked even though I had been doing it for years. It had never made sense and then suddenly BAM. I got it. Then Anne wanted to know but I wouldn’t tell her unless she scored a certain number of baskets in our game that day. She never did in any game after that. I still won’t tell her what my epiphany was or anything.

  35. I had an epiphany once. You were there. I think. I saw. You held me, I held myself. Were you there? I could’ve sworn I’ve felt you, seen you, heard you. Believed in you. You were my epiphany. You were there. But then gone. Gone

  36. Cold rain slips from the neck of her jacket,
    a sharp awakening she ignores.
    Eyes wide with realization,
    feet already in motion.

  37. Like a gunshot heard across the plains.

  38. I had an epiphany today. Where I realized that I don’t need an epiphany to feel smart or even enlightened. All I need really is my own two hands and just something to write with. I can create and destroy anything, as well as things in between. There is much to be discovered in the world; I’d rather look inside my own brain. Therefore, I lead to this conclusion: nothing.

  39. having an epiphany is a great feeling. knowledge is the greatest power one can possess, especially knowledge that hits you like a ton of bricks. i wish had an epiphany right now that would guide me to not failing out of grad school.

  40. -just had one the other day:
    i made it up.
    it was always in my head.
    how could i possibly have thought we were so much from so ‘few’ conversations…
    i don’t know.
    i led my heart on,
    that’s all it was.
    that’s why you were able to just leave me so easily.
    so never mind me,
    my imagination will continue to work as it always has,
    i might just keep holding on…
    but at least i can admit the truth:
    i made it up.
