I woke up in 2021…
To a world more complex than it has been
- Where fear separates, not unites
- Where a hurriedly put together remedy to unprecedented ailments divides people into camps
- Where Presidents incite violence
- Where claustrophobia causes relationship breakdowns
- Where some pine for company, and others pray for solitude
- Where people are fleeced of large amounts with a fake “Covid+” report
- Where hugs and handshakes are history
- Where the loneliest funerals happen
- Where the only certain thing is uncertainty
Yet…
the desire to live dominates
continues to widen barriers
I want a guarantee on 2022, but from whom?

Sadly there is no rewind to 2019 or fast forward to 2022 or beyond. So we plod into 2021, slightly better armed for it is a descendant of 2020.
Well said.
