Five years feels like an eternity. I’m not the same person I was five years ago, and I’m certainly not in the same place either. Things were in a constant state of flux for me back then, and even though I by no means have things figured out now, I wish I could go back to the person I was back then and tell them that in some ways, Derek Jeter’s last home game would essentially be the beginning of a new path.
The thing is, I guess it wasn’t a new path as much as it was me going down a path that I had gone down before.
