I'm a fourth generation displaced person, and I never really thought about
that having an impact on my sense of place. But it's true that the only
place that's ever felt special, "this is my chosen land", is the area in the
Scottish Higlands from which my ancestors were evicted at gunpoint around
1820. Given that I don't live there, it doesn't seem to matter where I live.
I moved to California because there were jobs here, and I stayed because my
children were born here.
