“There is no Sleepy Hollow on the Internet, no peaceful spot where contemplativeness can work its restorative magic. There is only the endless, mesmerizing buzz of the urban street.” Nicholas Carr, from The Shallows: What the Internet is Doing to Our Brains (New York: Norton, 2010)

The place that has had an impact on my life is my old house in Erlanger. This house was not what is commonly considered to be beautiful by today's standards, but it was beautiful to me because of all the memories that I associate with that house. I grew up there, learned how to ride a bike, swing a bat, even tie my shoes there. These are things i will never be able to do again so i consider this place beautiful.
