2020 was supposed to be my year.
When my doctors said they hoped to destroy the cancer, they didn’t tell me that a lot of other things might be destroyed, too.
Perhaps the most beautiful parts of life are too delicate to withstand such brutal battles.
A few months ago, I was sharing with a friend how I felt the battle wasn’t yet over. I chronicled my heartbreak, a burglary at my new home, unwanted changes to my body, and fears for my post-pandemic future. I said with a rueful laugh, “2020 was supposed to be my year.”
My friend thought for a minute and said, “Maybe 2020 IS your year.” A true stoic. Maybe he was right.
Making meaning from sickness and sense out of senselessness requires a fortitude far beyond that required to weather the eye of the storm.
In moments when I feel a surge of pain, regret, or sadness, I take a deep breath and repeat to myself, “2020 is my year.” Deep breath. And again.
And maybe 2020 is your year, too. Our year.
