In Pip's quote, he is referring to his day at Miss Havisham's. If he never lived this day, he would have been a whole different person. It changes his views about himself, and his family. He had never really thought of himself as "common" or felt bad about his thick boots, tough hands, or especially Joe. Over the coarse of just a few chapters Pip's character greatly changes. He becomes slightly tougher, and is determined to make himself uncommon. In chapter 10, he starts this off by going to learn a little bit from Bitty.
I think one of my most life altering days was when I met my best friend Ella. Looking back on that time, I didn't really get along with a couple of my other friends. We would get into fights most days, and it wasn't very enjoyable being around them anymore. Meeting Ella showed me that not all best friends had to fight, and struggle with their relationship. Ella and I connected extremely well, and it greatly changed my life, and the person I am today.
