As we reached the first quarter of 2021, let us acknowledge that we all have changed, in a big or small way. We have changed our ability to think, our perspectives in life, and our capacity to understand someone or something.
The year 2020 seemed to be very long, but we survived. Looking back, 2020 presented us with so many challenges beyond our grip. It tested our ability to withstand pressure and stress. It tested our strength and vitality to handle and recover from financial hardship.
We learned so many things from the past, and this is the time we could sit down, look back, and reflect. What have we learned from 2020, and what are we prepared to change in 2021?
With the past, I have nothing to do, nor with the future. I live now.
YESTERDAY,
We learned. . .
to appreciate the little things we have
***
there are some things we can’t control
***
we can cope and adapt to a new situation
***
We help our community 
We protect ourselves and other people 
We lost our job 
We bought more than we need 
We were worried for the safety of our loved ones 
We stayed at home 
We kept a distance 
We got bored
TODAY,
We bounce back.
***
We move forward.
***
AND
We surround ourselves with little things like:
Love 
Joy 
Books 
Exercise 
Learning new hobby 
Saving money 
Staying in touch with friends and families 
Hand washing
TOMORROW…
We will celebrate what we have learned and accomplished
Embrace life 
Learn new skills 
Spend time with people we love 
Enjoy new challenges 
Find your passion 
Develop compassion 
Play 
Travel 
Work hard on your dream
Till next time, enjoy the pleasures of life.
