Good Morning. These are musings from Villa Amore. I was planning on blogging for many years. My thoughts felt very important, poignant and possibly profound at least to me. A degree of lassitude, apathy kept me from putting those ideas on LED screen. Was reading Miss Adiche’s book Americanah and was inspired. Staying home for Corona———….. pause . How long how short who knows? Life is quiet, slower but relaxed. I am in the lame duck stage of my life? Wondering what’s next. Continue what I love doing and try new hobbies. I have become so Lt brained creativity has almost abandoned me. Letters to NY Times was all I was doing until I got carried away and slammed their conservative opinion writers and my comments were not published. I guess even NY Times has to have their fair and balanced views however flawed they are. I digress. I want to blog the twists and turns my life has taken since the Wrath of Corona. Had a big Zoom party with nephews, nieces and daughters. They chastise me for the Campari run, Trip to Austin and San Antonio. Wanted to do some photojournalism like Rick Steves only to be slammed by my kids. I even took black and white pictures to give it more professional patina.
I have to tell the degree of fear my children have about dying or getting sick from Corona. New generation of too much care, fear and insecurity. Fear was only imminent to others in childhood.I remember my city being bombed by Pakistani jets but would run to the terrace to watch the tracers-of AA guns. Reckless may be I was 13 ! Didn’t know fear, Death Ha. My children are so afraid that they avoid coming to our house and wipe their cellphones after talking to us. Being a healthcare professional I run towards disease not away and it’s hard to convey it to people . They run away and find excuses for themselves and for their parents to avoid exposure while exposure may be what we need to develop herd immunity. Will hold my ground and plug away. My first blog!

Very interesting perspective. The voice of the boomers.
