25 Life Experiences People Should Have At Least Once, According To The Internet
Reddit is often the go-to place for intriguing discussions, and when someone posed the question , “What’s one thing you think everyone should experience at least once in their life?” , users jumped in with thoughtful, profound, and even funny responses.
From life-changing adventures to simple joys, here’s a glimpse into what Redditors believe we should all experience at least once in our lives.
#1

Love.
#2

Peace. Complete peace, even if just for a bit.
#3

Working in the service industry. Maybe people would treat workers better, knowing they’re servers, not servants.
#4

Living alone.
#5

The love of a dog!
#6

Moving to another city from the one they grew up in.
If they can’t move, atleast travelling to another country.
#7
I think CEOs or similar should sit in the lowest level positions and vise versa.
#8

Seeing the Milky Way with your own eyes
#9

Northern Lights.
#10

Working in customer service.
#11

Being poor.
#12

A total eclipse of the sun.
#13

Learn another language. One of the most profound experiences I’ve ever had is reading an idea/thought that just doesn’t exist in English. It’ll help when you do all this traveling people are recommending. French or Spanish, depending on where you live. Or both. I really want to learn Arabic, too, but there are sooooo many dialects…
#14

Traveling to a new place where you can immerse yourself in a foreign culture, see unfamiliar nature and broaden your worldview. It is not only enriching internally, but also helps to better understand yourself and the world around you.
#15

Skinny dipping – such a free feeling!
#16
Feeling completely safe and protected.
#17

Being stranded in the wilderness. That s**t is the quickest character builder ever. You realize how frail everything is and walk away a different person, thankful for every little thing in life.
#18

Compassion.
#19

Trying something completely out of your comfort zone, like skydiving or taking an improv class.
#20

Orgasm.
#21
For those in the US, I think everyone should serve on a jury at least once I know that a lot of people try to get out of it, but it’s important to see how the justice system actually operates even for cases that don’t seem all that impactful- Going to trial does impact people. And people need to see that most cases are not like an episode of Perry Mason. And they need to see how a disparate group has to work together to reach a consensus, if it comes down to that. (I served on 3 so far, once as an alternate, so I wasn’t included in deliberations, and 2 struck deals before it got that far. But I learned a lot.
#22

A round of applause just for them.
#23

I’ve read “sex” as an answer but I want to add, sex with someone who loves you (it’s way more intimate and fulfilling).
#24

Everyone must experience failure.
#25

For someone to be proud of you whatever it may be.
