Like many here, I've experienced a good range of what 2020 has had to offer. Job loss, relationship disintegration, polarization of politics, rent due and no $ coming in from work. The works! We've all seen our fair share of bleak, dark days here this year.

I've taken solace in community I've found here on Publish0x, family, friends, and numerous ways of keeping my mind and mouth active. From the looks of things the past couple days, we may just be reaching a slight horizon of hope! A new president, no matter what you think of how 46 will perform, and the announcement of a breakthrough in the efficacy of a vaccine have put several measured pieces of hope in front of us!

I'm not blind. There are many people still hurting. Getting sick. Looking for purpose. Mourning. I can't take away that pain for anyone. I can empathize the best that I can and will still never be able to comprehend.

But like some altruistic Marvel movie, the malicious bend of the circumstances of late is curving back toward a positive evolution. I want to be there for it. I hope you're there for it. We all deserve to see a slightly brighter day ahead. Got some reason to hope again. Trust me, compared to the dark at 5pm type days I've seen the past couple weeks, I'll take it.
