I do own my own mortgage free bunker that's cleverly disguised as a late 50s bungalow in a typical North American suburb. Growing some of my own food and flowers not only puts at One with nature, it provide a small measure of food independence and satisfies the nurturing nature in our soul. My cat loved this as his own space to hunt mice.
I hope one day, you'd have your own space with Diablo.
