MY EPIPHANY A time I had an epiphany was when I would always hang out with my friends even when my siblings would ask me to take them out just to enjoy the day, one time my friend brought along her younger sister because she was obligated and she didn’t treat her so well. That made me think about my siblings and how bored they were at home when I can show them a good time without getting into any trouble.
