And those are neighborhoods that are built by hand where none existed before. No car. No heat. No windows. But a mobile phone. Clearly they have their priorities. And I agree with them. Much of what I had in my before life was sold to me and I was convinced I needed it when I didn't. I wanted it. And it's unnecessary. With any luck. I won't go back. I don't need a cell phone contract. Don't need a car. Don't need to wash my clothes every day. Don't need hot water even. Want them. Don't need them.
