There’s probably no thought more crippling than “Oh, I couldn’t possibly do that, what would my friends/neighbors/family/boss think?”.

I think I got too attached to my previous house. I grew up there and knew many children of the neighbors. We played in the courtyard after school, till the mothers called our names to have dinner.

我想我更喜欢我之前的家，我是在那长大的，在那里我也认识了很多邻居家的孩子们，放学后我们总一起在后院玩耍直到妈妈叫我们吃饭为止。
