In another life I am a published author by now, because I had focused on writing instead of a wide array of other creative endeavors. I remember when we “met” online - back in the early days of blogs. 😊 It’s lovely to see you again here and to know I’m not the only one that occasionally thinks about those ghost ships and other lives.

Ooooh! Others versions of Self in multiverse theory to contemplate! Thanks for sharing this exceptional idea to kick off a brainstorm and perhaps journal entry!

Recently finished a book by Matt Haig called the Midnight Library with a similar theme. It was fascinating for me to see how the choices we make change the course of our life. Makes living each day’s choices more exciting and important.

I think I will be writing about, In another life today. Very true. This is one way to think deeply about your life and ways to make it better, even when you don't feel like it. Thank you.

These musings are poetry, Susannah!✍️

"In another life I’m a doting grandmother. In another life I fell in love with a woman who felt like home. In another life I can digest gluten" and "In another life we’re kittens together" stand out for me as you blend pragmatic "I can digest gluten" with wildness in the last line. Your words full of love💕

Love this. I called my mother after reading this, so I won't be a distant daughter in this life 😁
