I really do agree with what you said in the quote above, about enjoying the single-family household. But I can't imagine doing it right now, but I want to.
All you have is "right now". Everything in the past is now just your story. Do not let your past control you. I can say that about 100 different ways. Enjoy the moment. Just be there, no intentions, no expectations. Be happy. If today was your last day on earth, what would you be doing? Live that way. When you wake up in the morning, this is the first day of the rest of your life, what do you want to do?
