The plot twists in 2021 were completely wild.
Going into it, I might have hoped for a little more travel, but in lieu of that we got signed up for a lifetime of adventure as a family of five.
I stayed the course with putting out consistent creative work and at the end of the year I’m pretty happy with some of the stuff I’ve made, and I’m excited to continue to making stuff.
There were some mountaintop moments.
And some crushing lows.
The journey to healing and justice is always worth it, but it’s also never linear.
It’s impossible to simply sum up this year as mostly good or bad. Either label feels like it’s ignoring something massive and unmistakable about the year. And that’s probably more true about life overall. We just have that pesky habit of trying to oversimplify.
