This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

After both parents died, we four kids sold the house. It's still "home", but it's not ours anymore. That home exists only in our memories, as do our parents. At 60, I'm the youngest of the four of us, so they'll all be dying sooner than later. I take better care of myself than any of them, so I'll probably be the last to go. Then it will only be my son left. He's adamant that he doesn't want kids, and I fully understand. Our family name will die with him.

That's life.
