A Time to Look Forward

What single word do you use as you look forward to 2021?

I can think of several words that describe my feelings about the coming year.:

  • hope 
  • renewal
  • relief 
  • recovery 
  • recuperation
  • progress
  • restoration
  • reclamation
  • healing
  • rehabilitation
  • normality
  • reclamation
  • mending
  • revival
  • repair
  • rebuilding  

There will be disappointments, setbacks and failures, to be sure. The radical right will continue to throw obstacles in the way of the Biden administration, and it will continue to do everything it can to set the administration up for failure. 

But this is the first time in 4 years I feel hopeful about the year ahead. We have a new administration with a more compassionate, inclusive, sane and reasoned approach. New vaccines should help bring the pandemic to a close.

So I think a reasonable amount of hope is definitely called for.
