2020. The year that wasn't.
Well written delanee


hugs,
buddhakitty.

Or the year that we wish wasn't. ;) Either way, I am really happy this resonated with you.

Love,

Well , one thing I find with it , every time I go to the store ,
or encounter people on the street , as I walk , not drive...

A starting point of conversation , is "fuckin' strange shit"...

Then talking begins...;)

Stay safe , best to you !

It sure makes it so we're all dealing with the same problem. So in a way, it brings us a little closer.

Nice of you to share that silver lining!

🌻 Delanee.

Good to see you back, delanee.

2020 will definitely go down in infamy.

I always come back, dear Ahavati. Sooner or later.
And yes, I think it already has.


🌻 Delanee.

Short but very true and thought-provoking. Thanks for sharing. Peace. oral

Short is my niche as you may have noticed.
I am very pleased that you enjoyed the read. Hope to see you around.

Short is a gift few have. One word such as NO, YES, etc. can change the destiny of a person, relationship, or movement. Hugs and peace. oral

Dear D,

Talk about “in a nutshell” you’ve summed up what this year has morphed into. Feels like the lost year even trying to make the best of it is an overwhelming challenge. I love the way you’ve formatted the piece into each section to maximize the importance of everything lost or on hold. Well said and done. H🌷

Dear H,

Summaries seem to be my thing these days. I'm really glad this piece spoke to you as well as to others apparently. I wasn't too certain about it at first, but the formatting won me over.

🌻 Delanee.

What a truly "long, strange trip it's been." You encapsulate well the angst of the time. I just saw your full profile pic, is that you? What intoxicating body art.

Thank you so much, dear Gahddess.
The profile pic is indeed me- but the full sleeve was a fake one I put on for the occassion of a themed stage performance. I do have some tattoos but a full sleeve will have to wait for a couple more years.

🌻 Delanee.

A poetry slam, perhaps? The stage performance. Hey just keep doing the faux-tats, cheaper and you can choose what suits your mood.

Ooh, that would have been cool too, a poetry slam. But it was in fact a performance with a temporary band I formed with coworkers.
We had a festival themed new year's reception and we served the live music.

Faux tats are so versatile. It's great, indeed!

🌻 Delanee.

Then you end up with some dudes name permanently inscribed on your body if things just don't work out 😉

The hell year. Or, a year of massive transformation. Or both. Succinct piece.

Thanks a lot, Eerie.
It's not about the set-backs but how you handle them, I suppose.


🌻 Delanee.

It certainly is difficult for those who haven't been able to see or have contact with their loved ones, especially the elderly. It's a paradigm shift of how we are all connected, that the spread of a disease like this can virtually affect everyone.
Hopefully this will be over soon and maybe 21 is the year for all of us to shine.
Great write.

2020 sucks ballz!
