We spent the afternoon today at Mecca Mall picking up a few household items amidst the glitz and glamour of the huge mall. Then we got on the Cheetah bus to return to the "countryside". It feels like such different worlds so close together: the glass and polish of the mall give way to the bus' tired curtains flapping violently in the wind, sheep wander in flocks by the roadside, Bedouin tents line parts of the highway...
At times, so much of my life feels lived between worlds.
