If you're reading this you made it! You got through the dumpster fire filled with trip-mines that was 2020! One thing I want to point out to the tired masses during this time is: this is a definite achievement! Whether you've been following quarantine protocol this entire time, took some risks, or made some mistakes, you've still made it past a terrible year. Now...if there's one takeaway I've gotten from this year it's that if you are having a crappy time, stuff is opposing you from all angles, it's important to reward yourself. Why is it important to reward yourself? Well, to tell yourself even subconsciously that there's something better around the corner. That there are better sensations that you can experience.

You'll be able to see people again, go out for dinner, go to amusement parks, see movies together; whatever you used to do. In other words, some semblance of normalcy will be achieved. One of the worst things besides the virus itself is the anxiety that comes with the situation that we're dealing with and having it wear on you. However...keep in mind that there are people that deal with crippling anxiety every day. There are people that are purely introverted and will stay at home whenever they can (I can relate
