First and foremost Happy New Years to all and to all a happy new year. Man I don't think I need to run off all that was wrong with 2020, because lord knows we all have a laundry list of things that was wrong for 80% of last year.
Yes Johnny, we all are wondering What the furry burning hell!?
I think the biggest wrong in '20 was the fact that I was in bed last night leading up to the calendar flip, who in the hell does that and again Johnny, what type of world are we living in!?! That's my 20's talking, sorry (above and below is pic of how I typically bring in the new year). My 30's however has given me a new way of taking a pissy and shitty experience (which was '20 for most of us) and at least being able to spell my name with it. (the piss not the shit)
30's me first thought this morning waking up in '21 was as follow;
With the right perspective it was So much to learn from '20, on all levels. Mostly for me was GRATITUDE AND GRACE! March 11(ironically my little brothers birthday) I remember what I was doing and where I was at (It was a Wednesday night, I was definitely at Brother's bar and grill alone enjoying 40 cent wing night, as I do every Wednesday for like the last 2 years) when they cancelled the NBA game I was watching, 5 min before tip off THAT HAS NEVER HAPPENED, I then knew we had a big problem! Then a couple days later on Friday the 13th kids in school was told to prepare not to come back on monday, Monday most schools closed! (and the shithead kids, instead of seeing a crisis they thought finally the world they dream of was upon us.)
Our lives changed in a blink of an eye, and all the freedoms we enjoy (going out, being able to dine in a restaurant, travel, watch and go to sporting events, shop) was taking away in a snap.
As that old adage goes, "you never know what you have til it's gone" 2020 was case and point of that! So here in 2021, my resolution, which I never make (cause 9 times out of 10 we fail at conquering em, and failure while teaching us a lesson, just feel horrible! Lol) 2021 my resolution is just to stay in the moment, every moment be conscious of my existence and give thanks for it. Give thanks all the time for all that is, rather good or bad, appreciate what you have and even what you don't! There we're people in '20 who had problems some of you , including myself, didn't have like not being able to work.
2021, as things get back to a sense of normalcy, as they will no mater the timeline, one thing I do wanna carry over from '20 is the lessons and perspective it gave me, so I can constantly be reminded to live '21 and beyond with a great amount of
GRATITUDE AND GRACE!
And I hope you do too!
