Milestones (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’ve been thinking a lot about milestones lately.Not because I’ve reached one, but because I realised how much of my life I’ve spent waiting for them. Waiting until the weekend. Waiting until autumn. Waiting until the holiday we’ve been waiting for, for months. Waiting until work gets quieter. Waiting until I’ve saved enough. Waiting until life feels like it’s about to begin.It struck me recently that if we’re not careful, we can spend so much time looking towards the next chapter that we forget
So, hello again. I'm back. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I disappeared for nine weeks, or was it ten?Not dramatically. Not in a “I’ve packed a bag and moved to the countryside” kind of way. Not because I had some grand revelation or because life suddenly became too extraordinary to document.It was almost the opposite. Life just carried on.And somehow, in those weeks, nothing happened and everything happened.<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!atfC!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%
