Sitting in the car somewhere in suburbia outside Philadelphia. I used to live in neighborhoods like this in a previous life. It's all vaguely familiar, even though I've never been here before.

The big homes with their well-kept lawns and tree-lined streets — all very much familiar. But no, I don't miss it. I also remember what my life was like and what it took out of me to live that life.

I lost it all, but I'm also free now — free to build the life I really want to live.
