It's hard to describe. It feels like my creativity and life options are closing off, one by one. @Smallison I love visiting my parents’ farm but when I stay there I feel the deadly undertow of inertia.

Take that as you will. @langedangereux I just started to say it a bunch of different ways and they were all rude, but . . . the MINDSET of city people is by far the best part about it for me.

Why do I bear the city? Because I love the city and it stresses me out not at all. You know what stresses me out? An hour long commute, traffic, driving 15 minutes to the corner store, etc. I work 2 miles from my home :) I can bike, I can bus, I can walk, I can drive. And the corner store is actually on my corner. That's the life! @Smallison Agreed! Why do I bear the city? Because I love the city and it stresses me out not at all. You know what stresses me out?
