As the days blend into an endless night
We try to welcome change with delight
If only there were a way to tell
If the future would be heaven or hell
Perhaps we may be better prepared
To make the most of the time we've shared,
To remember those who are gone too soon,
To be grateful for every fortune,
To work without pride, to be forgiving,
To cherish the love of those still living.
Even if foreboding makes us unsure
We hope for the strength to live and endure.

a daunting friend
you have been
but as you get up and leave
all I really feel is thankful glee
Reference to the wonderful song "Daunting Friend" by Lost in the trees. I wish all you wonderful, sensitive people the most amazing year you can have.
With smiles and merry spirits, we cruelly celebrated your demise.
:) Not sure if everyone is smiling though
Came and went like sand drawn towards a raging tornado.
Happy New Year

2020 was not a good year. May 2021 be a better year, or at least let me be drunk enough to survive the upcoming year

It’s the last day of 2020
and I’m crying over you
You do not deserve these tears
but I’m crying over you

It just dawned on me
that it’s really time
to close our book
that I wrote so well

And my heart
was never friends with my mind
‘cos I don’t want to
but I have to

Despite the hell,
you were my best friend
and for what it’s worth,
that was my heaven

For the last time,
I will say this;
that my love, for a thousand times more,
I would have still given you the world

Let the empty hands
embrace humanness and composure.  
Let the ebullient heart
thumbs belief & conviction.
The year enlighten lessons
of effacing unpleasantness and woes,
settling between bad & good.
Treasure the memories we came across
and be ready with wondrous love.  
Thank You 2020 for being the ebb & flow of life.
There was a year; filled with hope,
We felt if we could survive 19, we would cope,
If only we could pull it using a towrope.

The year was going fine,
Our dreams and aspirations were going in line,
All our thoughts were that the year was divine.

Then came a pandemic,
With the range of a pandemonium,
And sadly, it treated some as a pandemain.

Then we were begging the creator,
To protect us from the Corona detonator,
And he protected some from the coroner's  disseminator.

And here we are, hoping 21 would be better,
And that every problems, we would conquer,
And that the year would be the best ever!

Sa taong ito, hindi naging madali ang lahat
Maraming suliranin, magulong mundo, makalat.
Milyun milyon ang mga nasawing buhay
Nawalan ng trabaho't ikinabubuhay.

Bilyon bilyong mga tao ang nagluksa
Sa mga buhay na biglaang kinuha
Mga taong namatay dahil sa pandemya
May mga nasawi rin dahil sa kalamidad at trahedya.

Hustisya! Iyan ang sigaw nila
Kay hirap abutin ang hustisya lalo na kung ika'y isa lamang maralita
Na walang kakapitan
Kaya't walang kalaban laban.

Lahat ay humagulgol, nasaktan, nasugatan,
Ngunit nakayanan pa rin nating ngumiti habang ang kahirapan ay pasan.
Nakaramdam tayo ng paghihinagpis at pangamba
Na para bang hindi na matapos tapos itong nararanasan nating sakuna.

Nais mo ng sumuko,
Ngunit habang pinagmamasdan mo ang mga bagong bayani ng mundo,
Lumalaban sila para sa ating kaayusan at kalusugan,
Sa kabila ng pagod at hirap na kanilang pinapasan.

Kaya't dali dali **** pinunasan ang iyong luha
Nanalangin at nagtiwala ka sa Ama
Sapagkat Siya lamang ang makakapaghilom sa lahat
Magtiis lamang at sa Kaniya'y magtapat

Marahan mo nang isara ang huling pahina ng libro
Sa isang kwento sa taong ito
Ipangako **** sa susunod na taon,
Lalo ka pang magpapakatatag sa lahat ng darating sa buhay na mga hamon.

Gayunpaman, taglayin mo pa rin ang pusong mapagpakumbaba
Habaan pa ang pasensiya
Magpasalamat sa Ama sapagkat hindi ka niya hinayaang mag-isa
Palakpakan mo rin ang sarili mo sapagkat hindi ka sumuko.
Life is full of challenges but that challenges made us stronger. Everything will be alright.

Doot do, doot doot - News FLASH from boredom central.

I’ve got extra New Year plans.
My Ladybug & Cat Noir Onesie pajamas are at the ready.
I’ve got all six Totinos pizza roll flavors and a 12 pack of Grape soda.
My Nintendo switch is charged and I have 4 screens for Zooming.
If you have something for me - slip it under the door.
I’m staying up this New Years to be sure 2020 leaves.

*Happy New Years everyone!
I've never been so happy to see a year go - bye bye 2020
Haunted by thoughts, ghosts won't stop racing
Another night lingers, full of mistakes I'd chosen
Secure but miserable seemed the best way to be
Ignored all my wants, safety in misery


Lie down, breathe, put pen to paper
Thoughts can escape now that it's safer
One by one they come to life
Letter by letter, I string my strife


Free my mind from shackled regret
Forgive myself, I'm the only one left
Craving connection to one pure soul
Feel the feels, no longer alone


Begin my search for a love that's real
A kindred spirit who refused to kneel
Face unknown but eyes tell a story
Beautiful pain can lead to glory


If I sleep tonight & float away
I'll dream of words that I could say
Smiling eyes that light your face
Graceful thoughts that leave a trace


AcK 2020 ~ **** of a year
