New Hope

As another year comes to a close I sit and ponder on the past year time did not seem to slow down only felt like it ran a faster pace you come reflect on the good and bad moments that were happy and sad but in the end it is what it is the world will keep on turning as it has for millions of years the past couple of years were rough it tested our strengths and weaknesses it gave us twists and unexpected turns but we learned to live and grow with it so as the world keeps on turning a new year is once again upon us we will rely on family and friends with new hope for many better tomorrows.

How right you are, Phyllis. Considering all of the pandemics and disasters of one kind and another that this world has endured over the centuries, it does, somehow, manage to keep on turning. I, personally, have very mixed feelings about the last three years, however. In one respect, my life has slowed down considerably, and yet...here we are at the end of the third year already, and about to commence the journey into a new one. The last 4 lines of this excellent piece are very uplifting.
