I saw this quote on Missing in Sight's blog and I'm still processing..
It's Never Too Late to Be What You Might Have Been.
~ George Eliot
T says constantly that despite being high-functioning, career-type person I would have achieved much more if I hadn't had the start I did (details not required it seems the diagnosis says it all) which is both scary and depressing and confusing to those who think that really we've done quite well all things considered haven't we? haven't we?
But this quote - this means that we can start again right now. It doesn't have to be a "I'll do that when I'm better" or "I'll do that one day".. I can start now.. I just need to work out what it is and make a start.
Inspired and scared.

It is a scary quote because it puts the ball back in our court. We, or, rather, I, can no longer hide behind my diagnosis or my childhood and say I missed out on such and such. Today is the perfect today to get started on what you MIGHT have missed out on.
