Today I parted with my home - legally and mentally. I felt nothing as the buyers walked through the place and spoke of remodeling and changes they plan to make. As of today, I cease to be an owner, and will live here as a tenant until moving day. I bid goodbye to my little parcel of America.
Owning property is such a strange state of mind. It grounds you and gives you a stake in the world. I have forgotten what it's like to be free of this responsibility. I am about to rediscover it.
