When you look back your life and you think ‘how on earth did I get here?’
A few people I’ve been reading this paste month have referred to different ‘chapters’ in one’s life. It’s sometimes easier, especially when you’re asking yourself, how did I get here, to imagine that there are different chapters. I like that analogy.
