MORE THAN A YEAR

 

More than a year into this fearful life,

More than a year with hidden faces

More than a year for these sanitized hands

More than a year of missing your loved ones

More than a year inside closed doors

 

More than a year to the never-ending zoom meetings

More than a year to virtual celebrations

More than a year for our social cravings

More than a year without real handshakes and hugs

More than a year to this distant online education

More than a year without family get together

More than a year to family trips

 

BUT INSTEAD…

 

More than a year for blessed family dinners

More than a year for family prayer time

More than a year for meetings in pajamas

More than a year to experimental DIY’s

More than a year of making YouTube /TikTok videos

More than a year of home-cooked, healthy delicious food

More than a year for sibling bonding & fights

More than a year of taking care of ourselves through exercise, yoga and meditation

More than a year of learning new skills

More than a year knowing the value of life and good health

 

 

No matter what lies ahead, let’s make the most of every opportunity given to us.
