It’s like you run a big neighborhood and you have an address book with all the people who live there in it. One day one of your neighbors calls up and says “hey I’m moving. Take my name out your book.” So you do that. You don’t erase the address, just the name, and you don’t go to their house and clean it for them.

Then a few days later someone comes up to you and says “Hey I’m looking to move into a new place. Are there any open houses in your neighborhood?” And you look through your address book and sure enough, there’s a space without a name. You and your friend drive up to the house and all the neighbor’s old stuff is still there, so you clean it out and help your new friend move in. Then you put his name in the book at that address so you know where he lives.
