"I had a car. And a nice house, and a business I’d worked for since 16. At 50 I lost everything and walked away with just a bag of clothes, my lipstick and a heart full of tears. I had to walk everywhere.
"So I did... every day, even when I had nowhere to go. But it healed my mind & I lost 7 stones in weight! My health improved and I encountered interesting people.
"And then I fell in love against all my protestations that I would never again. I still don’t own my home, and I haven’t replaced my car, and I don’t hope to.
