It is no secret 2020 will be a memorable year. It has been filled with new experiences and firsts for everyone. No one thought we would have a pandemic or that we would still be in one heading into the new year. But, we are. Though 2020 may not have been the best year, there have been some upsides to it.
The next time I write a blog, it will be 2021. My school year will be halfway through and I would have changed classes for the next semester. Now, is not time to dwell on the horrors of 2020, but we should reflect on the goods of it.
Personally,2020 hasn’t been the worst year for me. Believe it or not, I’ve experienced worse. (Minus the global pandemic, of course) This year has been filled with personal growth and opportunity. I refuse to take what this year has taught me for granted. Though things may not have happened as normally as I might have wished, they happened. And that is something to be hella proud of.
You’re doing so much all in the midst of such an unfamiliar time. Though you may not have accomplished everything you had planned, or didn’t do exactly what you wanted, you’re doing so good. You’re literally doing the best you can given the circumstances.
Don’t let this year be listed as one of your worse because it’s unfamiliar and different. Let this year be remembered as one the wildest years that proved your overall strength and effort. You’re completing so much that most can only dream of during this time.
I’m proud of you.
I’m proud you get a chance to see another day in the new year. Most didn’t get that chance. I can’t wait to see how you brighten up 2021.
With open heart and new beginnings,
2020 Noelle
