Birds do not own the sky to use it.

GRATITUDE

WHAT THIS MEANS

A bird uses the whole sky and owns none of it. There is no claim, no boundary, no need to secure it before flying. Use and ownership are separable, and we have made them feel identical in ways that cost us a great deal of effort and money.

Think about what you are trying to own that you would rather simply use. The house in the country, the equipment, the title. Sometimes possession is the point and often access was all you actually wanted.
