WFH: A Year in Review

Well, it's been a year. Literally it's a been a year since we all went home to wait out the virus. Schools were closed, businesses became restricted, DoorDash became a lifeline, and the term "essential worker" took on a new and sometimes contentious meaning. When I first heard the term social distancing I thought they were referring to giving up Facebook or Instagram for lent. It has been some year. I do believe that how we respond to this past year, how well we recover personally and emotionally, is going to say a lot about what the future has in store for us. Don't just chalk the past year up as a loss and bury it with aspirations that you can 'forget about it' because things will get better. If you do that, you'll never find your way out of the waiting game. And 2021 has already shown us signs that may be the case. Learn from your experiences. Be as prepared as you can to handle the cards you're dealt. Once you're dealt them try not to trade away what you truly value. And know my friend, that you are not alone.
