The Zingara Project

What are you protecting?

What are you protecting yourself from?

What are you protecting your loved ones from?

Make a short list of items, people, parts of self, or conditions you feel you need to protect or to be protected from.

Next, select one or two items from your list, perhaps related, to write about.

Describe why protection is needed, then describe how you will protect the items, people, or condition you listed.
