As we begin to close the book on yet another year, we look back and cannot see much we would like to remember in the history of our species. Yet, what lies ahead could be even more frightening, as we take our next steps into a life completely different from what we’ve become accustomed to…
These are the final two weeks of 2021. What was known in the past as a festive season for most people around the world, a time to gather with friends and family, to leave our troubles behind and look ahead in hopes of a brighter tomorrow, has become nothing but a time of further isolation.
People in certain countries will not gather for the festivities, some of which have been outright cancelled, and those that do will need to adhere to strict protocols enforced by their governments to ensure the safety of everyone.
This is not something new that we suddenly had to get used to. It is a situation that we have been forced to live under for over two years now. Yet, as this year was meant to be our light in the tunnel, as things turn out, it was nothing but a brief intermission.
