“The life I used to want for myself was just a life that fit what I thought the world expected of me. I got a degree in communications, because that made sense. I married my college sweetheart. Because that made sense. I realize now that none of it actually made sense to me. It just made sense on paper. And it’s taken me way too long to see that those are different things. It’s like I’ve been in hibernation, and suddenly I’m awake. I’m alive. And I don’t know what to do with myself.”
