Happy 2020!

This was a year that was the “future” when I was in high-school and college. Plans for 2020. Where will we be in 2020. I’m not sure that this is where I imagined we’d be - the fights and the arguments and the stuff we’re still talking about kind of blows my mind, when I think back to where it looked like we would be in 2000.

That all said, I’m happy to be here, and I’m happy that I live in a place where, regardless of what’s going on out there in that world, I can go find things like this. It’s about to be a year of rancor - and that’s if we’re lucky. Remember that the people in your neighborhood have real, honest, reasons for feeling the way they do, and that we almost all have more in common than we do different. If we can start seeing the problems the same, that will go a long way to finding solutions, even if we have different ideas on how to solve them.

Love y’all, and talk soon.
