As I wrap my head around re- starting my life, and this blog, I keep wondering… Where does one start their story? I freely admit that I start my stories in the middle, but as I have made my way through life in a way that has seemed like such a winding road; I feel like I have lived multiple [very different] lives. I wonder where to start? Which part of me do I start with? Do I try to start at the beginning? If that's the case, at what point does your story truly become yours? You’re born… But that is not yet your story. That part belongs to the family and friends that raise you up. Your earliest memories can not be trusted. They have context and color that fills the story you remember, but they are impressions that are limited to a child's experiences and ability to understand, and thus cannot be wholly accurate. In the book of life, what chapter does your honest and accurate story begin?
