Dear 2020:

In prophetic fashion, we learn the most from that which challenges us the greatest and challenge you did indeed. But even in your finest hour of provocation- you taught us what is most important-each other. You taught us to appreciate the simplicity of living, our great outdoors. You taught us to walk back from the busy schedules, the travel and you allowed us to spend valuable time with those we love the most-family.

Social Psychologists have written about the impact of the quantity of interactions that an adult has in their 20’s and compared it with the quality of interactions that we have with individuals in our 30’s as primary predictors of the quality of our relationships in our 50’s
