I like the definition for Résumé: begin to do or pursue (something) again after a pause or interruption.
That has been the definition of my life thus far. A series of interruptions. Some I would not trade for the world. But I have a reputation for not letting interruptions stand in my way of coming back and reinventing myself and starting something new and exciting.
