Welcome to the Contents Page

WE ASKED PEOPLE WHAT TITLE THEY WOULD GIVE THIS CHAPTER OF THEIR LIFE. HERE ARE THEIR RESPONSES.

“‘Going Into Injury Time’. The hard work is nearly done, about to have more time to play golf.” — Peter, 61 “‘There are so Many Ways to Say Goodbye’. Goodbye to my working life, my children moving out, goodbye to my mother.” — Corinna, 60 56

“‘The Time for Hesitancy Is Over’. The pandemic forced me to reflect on my stagnant life and prompted me to strive for change. It's been a triumphant period of overcoming roadblocks, leaping at opportunities, and valuing relationships. I'm proud of my growth and budding confidence. It's now or never.” — Jacqueline, 21 “This chapter in my life offers me more freedom based on the wisdom I’ve gained from past experiences. Unfortunately, my body doesn’t see life that way!” — Gayle, 58 “Wait. Be patient. Winter will pass. Spring will come.” — Lee, 61 “This chapter of my life requires me to balance my social and recreational life with my new work requirements.” — Kartina, 24 “Looking back, I should have looked forward more.” — Belinda, 61 “‘Person in Waiting’. It feels like until you're an adult, you're just waiting to become real and be listened to.” — Oscar, 20 “‘The Tedious Tangent’. The last 18 months have been one massive tangent on the way to wherever I'm going — it's also been a very, very tedious one.” — Angus, 19
