Like most people around the world 2020 was a disaster. There are many things that happened in the past few years that will affect my life for years to come. For me personally, I learned there are no guarantees in life. I already knew that, but we are so used to being able to do anything we want to do. One of the most important things in life for me is travel. We've always planned trips a year in advance. Now we are planning two and three years in advance. I feel like I lost a year, mostly because of stupid leaders, but regardless we all lost a year of our lives. My husband and I are going to be traveling a lot more in the next few years. The pandemic taught us that if there is anything we want to do, do it now. There may be no tomorrow.
The other thing that I'm definitely not proud of is that I've started to only care about myself. An example would be the vaccines. I got my first shot yesterday! I know that about half the country is not getting one, because they believe in conspiracy theories. The only thing I can do is to protect myself. If you have a death wish there is nothing I can do about that. I hope that I lose this and return to having empathy for others.
2021 for me will be far less chaotic. I prefer stability in my life. Hopefully, 2021 brings prosperity, health, and stability to our lives., again.
