I agree, life is a trade off. Many of us came from rural properties with no restrictions. I lived on a horse farm for 20 years.

When we moved to TV, we bought into the Stepford lifestyle. While I don't always like the restrictions, I do love and appreciate the cleanliness and beauty of TV. What someone perceives as beautiful and artistic, their neighbour may see as trinkets and trash.

We all signed contracts agreeing to rules and restrictions. I agree, suck it up or head back to the mountainside.
