- Hello, this is 911. - Yes hello. I think quarantine has made me slightly crazy. I think I'm starting to have hallucinations. - What are you seeing? - A moose. Right outside my window. - Really? But you're in Canada, what else would you expect to see outside your window? - Tru dat. Thanks for your help. Bye-bye.

In 2008 I attempted suicide.
I was hospitalized and I lost everything. When I got out I lost my job, my car, my home, everything. I was 24 with no education outside of a high school diploma, and I knew only how to sell things to people, which I hated.
I dreamt of traveling the world and seeing new places but I'd done nothing close to that. I lost focus of everything. I thought money was the key to happiness and I chased that. Feeling devoid of everything, I really thought that there was no reason to continue. I had my shot at life and I blew it. My family convinced me to go back to university, despite my appeals that I was too old.
I became a teacher, I volunteered as a coach for the Special Olympics, and I worked with at risk youth. I found that what made me happy was making kids who I could empathize with happy. Making them feel that they were cared for, that a stranger could invest in them, and believe in them. I haven't looked back since.
This situation has brought back old emotions, it's taken away from me so much of what I feel I need to be happy and I feel disconnected from the very humans I only want to better. I've had to adapt, and in that, I've come to see, slowly, that I have much to be grateful for.
Today I moved into my dream flat. I'm a kid from an extremely humble, and very young family in the desert of west Texas with a dream to travel the world and today I feel accomplished. My home today is a place I could only dream of as a child and couldn't fathom in 2008. I still struggle, every day in fact, but I know that I have a purpose, and through a laptop or in person, it doesn't matter, I know there are tiny humans who need to be believed in and I'm happy to do that! I loved every single student that I've had and I don't say that because it's what a teacher should say, I say it because I mean it. Today I feel OK, and that's always a step on the right direction for anyone.

Lovely. Bet it’s a nice change as it won’t be so nice when it’s swarming in tourists.

With the drone of traffic gone, does this affect your sleep? I know living beside a railway at one point, the trains would lull me to sleep.

Hair is overrated. We had a girl in middle school that had Leukemia. She lost all her hair and was embarrassed about returning to school bald. So her three closest friend went and shaved their heads so she wouldn't feel singled out. They made hats and head scarfs a thing when we were in school. Unfortunately, this beautiful girl lost her battle with Leukemia. Ignore what other people say about you not having hair and breathe deeply. Hair is not important..life is.

Been there one summer, it's a gorgeous landscape you have. :-) Got such a kick of adrenaline when I saw a couple of Golden eagles very close up while at the ferry in the Nærøyfjord.

They say this virus is the great equalizer, but it's not, is it? As these pictures show, wealth and privilege make for completely different lockdown experiences. These are some lovely images, but they are the minority. The majority of people on this planet struggle with house, health and/or food security every single day and covid19 just adds to their struggles. If we have food to eat and a window to look out of at all during this time, we are probably the lucky ones.

I read a post today that said "No, we are not all in the same boat, but we are in the same storm." This thread highlights that fact. It is far easier to weather the storm in a well build boat, that has been outfitted to survive the storm.

I'm surprised people can't tell that a good number of this images are computer-generated, not real. A frame is created to go around s scene of another origin. But I guess it doesn't matter to most. I dislike deception and all the funds that are being generated for this supposed non-profit.
