On questioning a life that looks perfectly fine from the outside.
There's a particular kind of unsettling that doesn't come from anything going wrong.
It's the feeling that can arrive when a life looks entirely fine from the outside — every box ticked, everything holding together — and yet something inside you has quietly started to ask questions.
