The road is out before me and the wind is at my back. And I'm not going to look back again. My sack is over my shoulder and all I have is inside it. I sold everything else, I burned what was left to the ground. I have no idea where this road is going to take me. All I know is that I got my dog by my side and his eyes are smiling. I'll send for the cats when I get to where I need to go, I swear. It's easy, it's just one step, it's just the start of the journey.

And then I wake up and I never left.
