Hello! Is this thing on?

Hello! Is this think on?

If you want to move forward, be honest about what’s going on even if it’s only to yourself. When the world basically shut down in the spring of 2020, due to the pandemic there was so much disappointment and grief but there was also a weird comparison of misfortune going on that made nearly everyone I know feel like their disappointment was petty and small. It wasn’t small and it wasn’t petty. It matters that you’re disappointed because you matter. All our poor seniors who lost their last year in college or high school. All those kids who were looing forward to prom or finishing out the basketball season. My fifth grader! My poor fifth grader was so excited to “graduate” fifth grade even though you and I both know fifth grade graduations are lame. Bless his heart. But in quarantine, all the parties and plans or whatever other cool things they do for fifth graders here, those were all gone. He was sad and just because there were seniors in high school and college who were also sad for bigger life events, that doesn’t take away his right to feel disappointed himself.
