Whoo-hoo! It’s time to change the calendars again! 2020 is finally ending and we embrace the year 2021 with open arms. Hopefully, this spells out a year that marks the end of the pandemic, with more positive things coming our way.
Reminiscing the year gone by
The year-end seldom passes by without us taking a look back at how things went by for us during the year. As we bid adieu to 2020, we would definitely look back and reflect on the year that had passed. To many of us, time just flew, most of the which, we had spent indoors, under the roofs of our homes.
Some people may also say that they simply do not know (even now) about what happened this year. Things might have happened in the flash of an eye with the only real period of normal activity taking place in the initial days of the year. This year all we heard, for the most part, was the news of the deadly coronavirus and the COVID-19 pandemic. This might have added a good deal of gloominess or despair to the year on many occasions. You might have been bored or disturbed by being forced to spend a great chunk of time within the four walls of your home. You might have seen the pandemic in action right around you. You might have seen how it affected your loved ones or experienced its effects more pronouncedly on a personal level.
The New Year resolutions
As hard as it may have been, we have come to the end of the year 2020. So yes, it’s time to move forward. But before we do that, let’s look back once more.
Apart from all the restrictions and threats that we faced, 2020 also told the tale of grit, perseverance, and positivity. No matter how tough the odds were, we did not give up.
Our leaders who offered firm leadership in the period of crisis, our medical professionals who toiled selflessly to save the lives of patients, our workers across sectors who braved the odds of COVID, and our students who took the PSLE and other exams in this period of turmoil all bring out the most beautiful dimensions of humanity. All this shows us the power of hope, courage, and love.
So yes, let’s be hopeful
So where does that leave us? Let’s not cloud ourselves with negativity and block our visions for the year ahead. The new year is filled with opportunities. What we need is the vibrance to recognize it. The past year has taught us a lot. Using it as a learning curve, it is time we charted out our plans for 2021.
Set a few promising new year’s resolutions. Abide by them without fail. Plan a vacation for the year to a place that you have always wanted to visit.
Prepare a book list or movie list for the year and set aside time to check off the entries on the list. Prepare yourself for some fun!
A new chapter
Ever heard the saying that life is like a book? We can think of each passing year as a new page in our lives. The year that lays before us is a new, unexplored page. It is filled with surprises and opportunities. You just need to find the enthusiasm to embark upon the journey of exploration. In this upcoming year, there might be a number of milestones that are waiting for you. It might be the year you sit for an important examination, it might be the year you start secondary school, it might be the year you audition for your favorite school cultural society or it might even be the year that one of your most anticipated movie releases.
Looking forward to all of those, it’s going to be an interesting year!
Whether we think about it, we are always hopeful. That’s how all of humanity should be. Maybe we tend to forget this completely when we end up being surrounded by some really tough times. But at the end of the day, there is no way to completely take away the power of hope from our lives. So, as the new year commences, let’s look ahead with bright rays of hope.
Happy new year to you and your family! 🙂
