2022
Happy New Year!
Looking up for what’s next.
2021
What to think… or what to …remember?
I’m glad to see 2021 go away.
What has been learned?
The good
There are a few things about 2021 that are good. 2021 has not been all bad.
- I’ve continued to learned about live Internet broadcasting of events. Software & hardware components.
- I learned to check my love of country so that my love of God is greater.
- We welcomed a new grandchild into the world!
- We welcomed new nieces and nephews into the extended family!
- My wife and I survived having COVID in August. It was rough for both of us.
- My wife, daughter, son-in-law, four grandchildren (1 newborn) all had COVID, now we all have natural immunity1!
- COVID is not a death sentence 2 3.
The bad
There are many things about 2021 that are awful. Most of all, the mess of COVID.
- Fascism4 traded for the promise of safety5 6. False hope.
- COVID revealed the worst in people7 8, governments 5 6 9 10 11, and corporations 12 13.
