@DarkHeaven Thanks for reading me. I always liked this piece. A hard year- one of woe and strife- and still the best I've had in so many ways.

@Elandra77 I understand. 🖤🤗

@OfflineFriend Pretty much. I think this was one of her last posts actually.💔

@MoonlightLullaby I still feel that way. This is no longer a welcome home to me. But thank you for thinking of and remembering me. That means so very much. I wrote stories and stories did not get read. i was talking to my hand. What I had to say was not important. People wanted sight gags, questions, memes, gifs and the like and that's not me. I want to affect the heart, mind and soul. I can't. Not here. I wish you well. I hope the new year treats you well and it's all you wish it to be. I wish it was EP. There i felt wanted.

@Elandra77 I'm sorry you feel this way, BUT you're not the only one. Many of us old EP refugees feel the tug, even the drastic change we've experienced since I came here in 2018. I don't care about being not fitting in with cliques and the such. I'd rather be a misfit in that sense. I just miss the subject matter, substance, raw depth and unbiased acceptance in regards to keeping it real. My inner muse is dead, but nobody would really care if I wrote something anyways. Different times in comparison. Sigh. Best wishes to you too.🌷🍃

@TheBannibalOne Thanks for reading me. This made no judgements. It had no solutions.It just offered a version of clarity of a year many would like to forget.

@Elandra77 years ago i would have really worried about it.The way the world is now,
I'm retired and hardly go anywhere.
If I feel better I may go some places.

@TheBannibalOne Like you I've seen all of the 1960's as well. I'm also retired. There was a sense of dread last year the 60's lacked. We saw a global kiiler take lives without warrant and without regard.

I'm not an introverted but a Extroverted introvert. I need to see people, faces. smiles, frowns. freckles and dimples. in 2020 all of that was gone. In 2020 we lost our humanity. Our sense of being and community.

I fear for the world as well but I can't let that consume me.

@Bri89 We will not soon forget what lest year and how last year was- and how it interrupted our way of life; of living. One needs to only visit a morgue to be reminded of that.

I'd rather we as a people focus on hope--hope for a better tomorrow first and let healing and closure come with that. Some are still in shock- this was a major trauma and without therapy it will be hard for many to move on..

We are a forgetful lot. I HOPE we do not forget soon.
