2020 was without a doubt one for the books. I mean, I don’t know about you but in my 33 years of life I had not lived through a pandemic. A word wide pandemic. It’s crazy to believe all the lessons 2020 has taught us. So many happy moments as well as tears. Tears of joy, tears of misfortune, tears of gratitude. I felt so blessed at the end of 2019 and I welcomed 2020 with open arms, believing that life couldn’t get any better. Well, technically it could of but I believed to I had everything I had ever prayed for. Then 2020 come around. We all got sick. I mean really really sick. Then things started to go down hill from there. So much so that I worried. A lot! More from of fear of the unknown than anything else. Yet there were so many hidden blessings. Blessings so big yet seeming so small that you’d almost missed it. And even with the feeling of misfortune I felt so blessed. Little by little and month after month I started to put in perspective the true meaning of life. Health. Family. Comfort. Trust. Peace. Reassurance. Joy.
Although this pandemic took so many lives, and affected as well as changed so many lives, it was also a realization to be thankful for the little things we often take for granted. I hope to never forget the lessons learned. To never lose hope. To be kind and optimistic. To reach out to those I love and care about. Most importantly to never take a single moment or person for granted. The world change so rapidly. Life can change in the blink of an eye. Tomorrow is not promised. We must appreciate everything waking and breathing moment we are allowed. But you know what’s the most importance lesson I learned? To always trust my God! I may not know what tomorrow holds, but I certainly know who holds tomorrow and his love for me, for us the human race, has no limits.
Happy New Year friends! May your new year be peaceful and prosperous!
