Checkpoint

The idea of a fresh start is great. A clean slate. The opportunity to learn from the past and grow. But I am 29 and this is not the first fresh start I have had. In fact, every time I do not like the story, I choose to try again, to rewrite. I have even moved halfway across the globe to completely change my narrative. For me, a fresh start is not just a beginning-of-the-year list of resolutions I intend to keep yet never do. It is a daily quest to figure out who I am and create a new reality to shirk the responsibility of facing my previous attempts which I have deemed unsuccessful. And I am growing tired of it.
