That social network where your mother doesn't follow you
Follow
where you can promise never to be like her, never to let your anxieties run your life to a point where it drives those closest to you away
this is why I moved to a city. This is why I never want to leave here, and am very afraid I will have to at some point. I don't want to be stuck in some town where people only use cars to get anywhere, dependant on a car or someone to drive me
I don't want to have to choose my friends or the people I meet from a narrow pool of people who may not have a lot in common with me, just because getting somewhere else is too much of a hassle.
where you hope you can still remember that promise when you yourself are 70
