Reflection:
The new up and coming trend is for couples ditching the 200,00 more or less houses and having a tiny house. These tiny houses revert back to the original American Dream. Having the simple life that fits the basic needs of living and not going overboard with all the extra stuff you do not need. With this new simple life families can become closer as they once were back in the 1950’s and earlier. Not letting distance get in the way … literally. Granted this might be a little on the extreme side, but so is buying a 10 million dollar mansion just for yourself. People with these tiny houses tend to be happier living a simple life that was the meaning of the American Dream.
