A Smaller Life
from The Postscript · host Carrie Classon
It all reminds me of other rooms and smaller places I have lived in the past. It reminds me of being in my childhood bedroom, where I also had a desk and a bed in close proximity. It reminds me of when, at 50, I packed everything into the back of a pickup truck and went to grad school. I lived in a converted garage with hardwood floors and had a very similar setup—with a private bath and a desk, a chair, a dog, a cat, and a bed, all in one room. It was everything I needed. That’s how I feel now. I have everything I need within easy reach.
