What was the best thing that happened to you during the Heisei Era?

Trinlets2, sincere good luck to you!

Many other good stories from other posters as well. Good luck to all of us!

Bad name era of Showa finished to be replaced to Heisei and ending to become Reiwa, a horrible name starting very soon. Between them I like Heisei the best, with the second Taisho democracy period.

Graduated uni, came to Japan and built a career and family here. So many great experiences and memories.

I arrived in Sendai a day before 3/11.

Got married and have 2 beautiful babies 3yr old son 10 month old daughter.

Trained under various Grandmasters and became an accomplished martial artist.

Got out of Baltimore.

Graduated college.

Came to Japan. Took job in Miyazaki.

Met my wife and got married.

Took over father in law's tool and die business.

3 kids, 2 sons and 1 daughter.

Adopted a Husky.

All in all, one thing led to another.

Getting born was a pretty big highlight.

Discovered Strong Zero.

Came to Japan.

trinklets2: WOW! That's a lot of living. I got married and had 3 sons. Things in the job and marriage are not going well, but my kids are great and I am healthy and have a job (that I hate). There is hope however, lol. I hope things work out for you!

Got married to a Jman, gave birth to a son who's now 28, got divorced, got widowed, got a job and jobless right now. Sooo much learning and I must thank all those yrs. Some political awakening both here and in my home country. And right now just before my birthday and just before Heisei ends, wishing to have a new gainful employment with no discrimination at all.
