The view from my childhood bedroom window these days.
I used to sit there every night to reflect. Trees and vegetation were not that thick. As the house sits on a small hill, I could see pretty far out.
The wild thing is that although it looks secluded, traffic in the street right after those trees has increased so much that it feels a lot less private than before. Cars every second.
Today sometimes there’s traffic jam right there. It used to not even be a possibility.
When people pompously say “change is inevitable” I’m always thinking “well if it implies losses reassess that stupid change, how about that”.
