Life Journey Novels & Stories

Mina says. "To grandmothers who leave escape routes." "To Claire, who's finally using them." I drink. Eat cheese. Look at my messy paintings. And think: This is what fifty thousand dollars buys. Not things. Not security. Not even survival. Freedom. The freedom to build a life worth living, one impractical moment at a time. In my first timeline, I died never knowing this feeling. This timeline? I'm alive. And I'm keeping it that way.

Frustration bubbled up inside of me, and I couldn't help but blurt out, "Why not? I'm just as tired as you were at seventy-two, trust me." "I've walked a long road," she began, "I was married for fifty years, and I loved him fiercely. I have experienced passion, pain, loss, and everything in between. I've earned my stripes, my dear. I'm content because I have lived my life to the fullest. You, on the other hand, you're at the beginning of your journey. Don't make the mistake of trying to walk in my footsteps.

The winding road of her journey led her through twists and turns, ups and downs, yet she navigated it with grace, courage, and an unwavering commitment to personal growth, professional excellence, and a life well-lived.

For the record. That the age coincidence — forty-five years of second life, forty-five years of first life — is the moment I have been building toward without knowing it. The second life has now been exactly as long as the first. From here, every year is new territory. Not unlived territory — the first life gave me no model for these years because the first life did not reach them. Every year from sixty-six is a year the first life did not produce. The second life, fully free of the first life's shadow.

It doesn't matter if you lived for ten years or a thousand years, it’s the same. You can’t undo the past or know what the future has. You can only walk in the present. Experience is a useful factor but it isn’t absolute. That’s why wise men have said that life was a journey and not a means to an end.” “Isn’t it lonely?

Real-life is not like a fairytale story; real life is full of thorns, pains, suffering, and struggle, and my life was no fairytale either; it was a brutal and bitter reality that crushed me under the weight of my so-called family's mistakes. I laugh and cry when I remember my family and the life they gave me, which was full of thorns and pins. I was the consequence of their love or their error, which I still don't understand, or maybe I committed a great sin in a previous life that caused me to experience so much misery in this life, or maybe my misfortunes and sufferings were the results of bad karma that I had to expend in this life.
