An OPEN LETTER to … Haters of 2020

-

It’s been a year taken away.

It’s been the year of canceled, of closed, and of curbside pickup. We’ve masked up, refused to hug, stayed away from friends and even family, and some of us have had it and survived it while others have lost loved ones.

And 2020 has become a cuss word.

But thank The Lord 2021 is a mere week away because that’s when this nightmare ends, right?

Ugh. Now this is the hard part. Hmm. How do we put this? Should we be soft and comfy, or harsh and slapped-face honest? Light at the end of the vaccine tunnel crap, or the “you could still die” approach? People seem to get offended far more quickly than ever before, and it takes far less anymore. Hmmm.

OK, back to the question … will the nightmare end once the ball lands on the New Year?

329K-33BC-22BC-47MC-37OC.

Figure the code to find the answer.

Sincerely,

Folks Wishing You Well
