During the last few months of '16 I sold and gave away everything. I was left with 8 banker boxes of what I thought was important to keep, and put them in storage.

The first week of '17 I took off to travel the world with one suitcase and a backpack.

I returned to Santa Fe just before Covid landed to help a friend. Needless to say I was stuck there for two years. I also had the chance to take a look in those 8 boxes. The surprise was none it mattered any longer.

I will never return to that old life, The new and simple are all that matters.

Great piece, Charlie. You nailed this one. Thanks for every word.
