...how other people's decisions have a direct effect on YOUR life? We like to think that we are in charge of our own destiny but if you really stop and think about how many choices other people have made that trickle to you. I'll give some examples in my life and then you can share some of yours!
5 years ago, I was sick of living in AZ and wanted to be back on the East Coast. I flew to DC for a job interview. That person's decision to not hire me changed the course of my life. (never would have moved back to MA/ met my husband)
5 years ago, my best friend flew to AZ for a job interview. She did not get the job. If she had, I probably would have stayed in AZ with her and never met my husband.
2 years ago, woman down the street didn't properly secure her asshole dog. He attacked me while on my run. Besides the emotional trauma, my body wouldn't have these physical scars.
