Dear Steffani, I appreciate your comments. Dictionary meaning of ::Epiphany" is "A divine manifestation" . "Twelve days after Christmas; celebrates the visit of the three wise men to the infant Jesus" is also known as Epiphany. As a whole it is a matter of CELEBRATION.
I think if you look at the entire dictionary entry you will see that epiphanies (non-proper) are more closely related to insights or deific manifestations. An Epiphany (proper) refers to a specific Christian festival.
"1. (initial capital letter) a Christian festival, observed on January 6, commemorating the manifestation of Christ to the gentiles in the persons of the Magi; Twelfth-day.
2.an appearance or manifestation, esp. of a deity. 3.a sudden, intuitive perception of or insight into the reality or essential meaning of something, usually initiated by some simple, homely, or commonplace occurrence or experience. 4.a literary work or section of a work presenting, usually symbolically, such a moment of revelation and insight. "
epiphany. (n.d.). Dictionary.com Unabridged (v 1.1). Retrieved July 01, 2008, from Dictionary.com website: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/epiphanyIt' not that I don't like the hub. You sound like an intelligent, capable and motivated person. I simply find the title misleading.Thanks Steffani. I just took the meaning as "Moments of Joy and celebration" and wrote this hub. This hub is actually an answer to a request. The title is not mine. Should I change the title ? If yes, then any suggestions from you ?

These are certainly 10 outstanding moments of your life, guidebaba, but I'm not sure I understand how they qualify as epiphanies. Doesn't an epiphany usually refer to an intuitive insight into the essential meaning of something usually occurring as the result of some commonplace occurence as a catalyst?
