Although 2020 was very hard on everyone, I believe that it was necessary for all of us to grow during that time. Personally, I felt that I became much more educated and invested in what happens in our society. During 2020, I branched out in interests and my personality and began to care less about other peoples opinions. For this personal growth I am extremely grateful. I hope that in 2021 we will be smarter as a society, as the year prior opened our eyes to many things.

I am thankful for my struggles. If i didn't have the struggles i had 2020 i wouldn't have been able to work on myself as a person. I'm thankful that i still don't give up. I hope in 2021 i can resolve a few things within myself and with someone. I cant help but wonder though if I should carry my hope in 2021 but i will and just hope it turns out how i need it too. But i'm thankful for the strength my family carries in regards to not getting sick. I dont know if this counts as well but im also thankful for anime because it helped distract me from a lot of things that were happening and overall helped me through the year. :)

I am very grateful for my family and friends and the good health we are all lucky enough to have. Without my friends 2020 would have been somehow even harder than it already was. I am thankful that they are there for me if I need someone to talk to or even just someone to alleviate my boredom. I am incredibly thankful for the good health of those close to me because I know that many are not as fortunate when it comes to that.

Aside from friends and family I am thankful for the opportunity that has come from me being in quarantined. I have had a lot of time to reflect on myself and my mental health and I improved a lot of aspects that I was unhappy with. I had time to juggle with gender and sexuality standards without constantly fearing what others would think of me if I changed certain parts of myself. I am thankful that covid did not impact my mental health in a big negative manner. In 2021 I am looking forward to many things. I hope things slowly go back to normal and I start feeling safer in public and that I am able to see my friends again. I hope more people recover well and that people use their voice more to lift concerns and raise awareness. On a more personal level I hope to read more

Aside from my beloved family and friends, I'm very grateful for our health, security, and safety in 2020. Last year was very challenging in terms of social distancing and keeping our 1 1/2 year-old son safe. We are very lucky to stay healthy and COVID-free. Hopefully, we will continue to stay safe. Once LA County has reached herd immunity, I look forward to going on a road trip, hiking in state parks, visiting museums, and watching live theater performances again. Mr. Plotnik and I would love to finally show our baby the LA and Santa Barbara Zoos and Long Beach Aquarium because he's only seen wildlife in books. I am also eager to visit a spa and get a good massage. :)

This pic was taken on Christmas. We had a socially distanced dinner with my in-laws in the backyard.
