Thank You 2020

There’s no doubt that this year alone has been the most painful, emotional, scary (I mean the list goes on) year for all of us in one way or another. We hadn’t imagined to be entering a new decade battling a pandemic. As I write this, I am just reflecting on what a year it’s been. Here’s a short poem just expressing what I feel inside. I hope that you can resonate.

Thank you 2020

We’ve shared many ups and downs

Still I am grateful for life, the fresh air I breathe

So much we’ve lost, but have also gained

For some of us to pick up the pieces

We’ve experienced highs and lows with our emotions

Our hearts have been through turmoil

Some of us dealt with major losses

Losing family members, friends, people we’ve held dear to our hearts

But we still found laughter and comfort of family and friends that has been blessed to see another day

We stand today, making it through the end of the year

Blessed I feel, determined to continue to live

To give my best self, even on days when I feel like I lack

So many tears we’ve cried in silence

Carrying the pain in our hearts

It’s been an emotional year

We’ve all had that feeling like we’re at the edge

It almost felt like our faith was being held by tape

If you are breathing in this very moment it is a blessing

Covered by the grace of the most high.

Wishing you all a Happy Holiday & Prosperous New Year!
