How I remember my area

[Read C.]

I can identify with your sadness sometimes. I lived in my area for more than 15 years, and I get nostalgic thinking about the lush verdant that used to exist here during my childhood. Now the urban sprawl reached my neighborhood. Two lane roads became 8 lane roads. Lamp posts and power lines and shopping centers are everywhere. "City Parks," these pseudo, artificial preserves of nature have cropped up to replace the old forests. And more neighborhoods and apartment complexes are being built nearby almost every year.
