I don't know how else to phrase it. Over the last four years my life and circumstances have changed so much that the only link between past and present is the face I see in the mirror.
I've dealt with the death of a parent and the grief that followed and done my best to start fresh without the one person I considered a constant. I've moved house, started working towards a new career path and feel fortunate to have been able to make those changes.
I'm secure about most of the decisions I've taken, but there's a sense of 'did I really do that?' At times it seems like I'm watching myself from afar, making choices and taking responsibilities that wouldn't have been on the table a few years earlier.
You could say I've been drop-kicked into a world I don't fully understand and done my best to stay afloat. This is what everyone does, more or less, but is there usually such a disconnect between old and new?
