2020 In The Rear View!

We’re cruising into 2021, leaving what looked like the most epic joyride of the century behind, unknowing of what’s ahead. The unpaved past that held the most incidents and pain to many, has somewhat cleared as the journey forward is hopeful. Relief hangs thick in the atmosphere as we propell forward. The significance of the fireworks that dazzled above came with a bountiful explosion of fuck you 2020!

Negativity perceives us, the traumatic 2020 won’t leave us, our human perspective jarred and the positive impact of the past won't surface since we will not take the time to even ponder on the good that still exists from 2020. We see it on all social media, Netflix has brought Death to 2020 and though we are in 2021, we ponder on the year we claim to hold so much bitterness and hatred towards.

Who do we blame? God? The Devil? What about ourselves? Yes I said it ourselves, No, I’m not drunk. It’s the value in the opportunities we receive, that sometimes we do not take advantage of and the normal human behavior is to cast blame. We tend to dwell on our suffering although it takes more energy and effort to worry and stress over things we do not have the ability to change, than use these unforseen circumstances as avenues to reflect, learn, think, plan and create opportunities to live, just live.

This circle, or cyle is called life and through every generation there are stories, hiccups, death, and other terrible things that occurred. Our ancestors have been through so much with less. We the people of 2021 are fortunate to have these new experiences under our belt. 2020 should have brought about reform of some kind, family oriented, encourgament to live life to the fullest since tomorrow is not promised, when things change, we do too and adapt, even lend a helping hand when we can. 2020 brought back the humanity we lacked, it’s almost as though 2020 was a reset button that was pressed, a gear that was changed on this jorney of life. Though to each the effect of it was different, there are lessons to be learnt.

Dont say fuck off to 2020, be encouraged, be appreciative that you survived it and now, gauge this new year with a positive mindset, living every day as they come, being in the moment and knowing that 2020 is in your rear view.
