It might be a cancer diagnosis, a pink slip at work, death of a spouse or child, discovery of betrayed trust ... It's sudden and it's dispositive. And it's not a dream. You wake up and there it is.

Of course, not all such awakenings are negative. There's the birth of a child, a promotion, meeting one's future spouse...

But this one has to leave a mark.
