December 31, 2020
People call it the year that wasn’t. Most are hoping we get a do over. It
has been tough. Rereading my January 2020 post helped me realize just how much disappointment
this year has brought … to everyone.
This is the year that was. Tomorrow it will be gone but the effects will
linger for sure. I am cautiously optimistic although I am very aware that the fallout
from this bad news year on the planet and in each of our lives will undoubtedly
linger.
Hope resides in the plans we make, in the image we create for more and
better. Parts of my plan from last year came to fruition and some I abandoned.
I am not really sure why except that I couldn’t figure out a way forward with
those plans in our ‘new reality.’
Today I am in St Albert reviewing this 2020 phenomenon and its impact. I
spent 7 months in Halifax and the last 3 here. Those 10 months have felt like a
decade for me. There have been wonderful connections with friends and family in
both places. My golf game and my piano playing have improved.
Tomorrow is another day, another year with a new title – 2021. As John
Lennon would say “Let’s hope it’s a good one …”
