Oh man, this was a fantastic read. Cannot recommend enough.
Nora has had a lot of shit happen to her and I think most people will understand what it feels like to question or even regret your choices later in life, but this is a valid lesson in learning that though maybe some choices hurt, they ultimately make you you and wanting to turn back time or redo them is gonna land you in other kinds of shit.
