The things we are programmed to believe, and the things we accumulate with every experience in our life, leave such an imprint on us.

It’s April 16th, 2020, where did I think I would be today??

Certainly not in the deserts of Arizona…. At 31, looking under my feet to make sure I don’t step on a Scorpion.

Well, I can’t do much anyhow, not from the ankle injury and not due to COVID-19.

Last time I was in quarantine, was during the war in my home country Bosnia. That was different though, no medical help, no food, or hygiene. I remember going to Nova Gradiska to live in an abandoned home, previously owned by a Serbian family that escaped from Croatia.

So really, this stay at home order doesn’t much bother me. I don’t feel stuck at home, I feel safe at home.

& that for now, that is the deserts of Arizona….. making sure I don’t step on a Scorpion.
