A small house, a small life

Half the rooms, twice the light.

We moved. Half the rooms, twice the light. I can find everything I own in under a minute, which is either a great success or a small indictment.

There is something about a small house that makes you honest. You cannot hide a hobby you don’t actually do. You cannot stash a book you don’t intend to read. The walls keep score, gently, and then ask what you want to keep.

I keep less than I thought I would.
