[quote=Anonymous]This just brought to mind something my niece wrote in high school. She was a real striver, super organized, tons of sports, ECs, APs, etc. Her parents were poor (both became disabled, my sister in her early 40s, my BIL in his 50s), their house was shabby and in a rural area that was eventually annexed by the city and zoned for future industrial use, which meant no new residential building or remodeling that would change the footprint of the house was allowed (not that they had the money for that). The piece she wrote in high school was about her house and how much she loved it, with the phrase "Never perfect" jumping out in one sentence. Most of her friends lived in gorgeous, expensive homes, but she loved the one she was raised in as well as the family she grew up in. [/quote]
