Thank U Next, 2020

As the lovely Ariana Grande put it –

One taught me love

One taught me patience

And one taught me pain

Now, I’m so amazing

Say I’ve loved and I’ve lost

But that’s not what I see

So, look what I got

Look at what you taught me

And for that, I say

Thank you, next.

Yes, 2020. You taught me ALL of that.

You brought me challenges without compare. You brought me insomnia and anxiety about my new business. You brought me concern and pain about those that are struggling in so many different ways. You brought me heartbreak. You brought me rocky family relationships. You brought me grief.

You also brought me MYSELF. You brought me the joy of simple things. You brought me a new immersion in art and creativity. You brought me incredibly deep growth in key relationships, and the blossoming of new connections. And in an unexpected twist, you brought me healing and love and acceptance.

Thank you 2020 for all that you were.

May your 2020 have been a year of growth and healing, despite the challenges.

May your 2021 be the year of your dreams taking flight.

All my best,

Stacey
