the end of the music box steps

yesterday marked the end of the beginning for me. after the movers left, i swept the floor, took out the last bag of recycling, finished putting my bags in the car, and just stood in the living room of my empty music box steps apartment for a final quiet moment.

and for a brief instant i felt overwhelmed by sadness. and then gratefulness creeped in. for as sad as it is to leave my home, i'm grateful for my three years of music box steps magic.

so i turned around, locked the door, walked up the music box steps for the last time, and didn't look back.

forward only from here.

the end.
