I had a get together with a group of friends and a few newer friends came along (let’s call themMary and Jane) . We had a great evening. I was telling a story of something that happened me I man the past when I lived in another country. Jane asked “ooh when did you live there? What brought you there etc? After telling her the details she said. Wow you’ve lived a whole other life!
this prompted use to talk about our “other lives”
for example (and I’ll be vague on some details so as to not out people I suppose)
I lived in country X for 9 years and was a teacher and married
Now I live in a whole other country and do a completely different job, Studied new degree etc…and separated.
other friend
lived In Dubai and worked as cabin crew for 6 years
then lived in USA and taught yoga for 5 years
now lives in the country we are in and owns her own health food shop.
friend 3
married for 10 years in Canada and was a masseuse.
then separated and moved to the uk and trained and worked as an estate agent.
now live in the country we are in and is married again with 2 dc and is a sahm
most of us have lived 2-3 different lives it seems…
we laughed at how crazy it is how much life can change especially when you think it won’t!
so for fun, how many lives have you lived?
