That reminds me of the time I said goodbye to a lover before he went on a trip and said, I'll see you soonish! He responded with, Well, not so soon. And I never saw him after that. It was a foreshadowing of some sort.
You have to think of the movers. They see people joyously move into their new houses and then move them out years later. I wonder what it's like for them. There should be a documentary on it if there isn't one.
