One tipping point in my life was when I decided to switch majors in college. I was studying business, but I realized it wasn't something I was truly passionate about. I reached a breaking point when I couldn't see myself pursuing a career in business for the rest of my life. I made the decision to switch to psychology, which was something I was truly interested in and made me excited for my future. This tipping point was similar to the one Josh describes in the poem because it was a moment of realization that led to a major shift in my life path. Just like how Josh found his tipping point in The Giver, I found mine in college and it ultimately guided me towards a more fulfilling future.
