White s Park - December, 2020 (Photo courtesy of Alan G. Jesseman)
Last week I stood at the entrance of Concord s beloved White s Park (Okay - White Park for those who prefer that moniker), feeling hopeful and optimistic.
Throughout my many decades of living in Concord, the park has always been a source of pleasure and reflection for me. Last week it never felt better being there between two brightly decorated trees on an unusually balmy December evening. The familiar surroundings only seemed to provide me a sense of positivity as 2020 wound down.
The past year has been a challenge for everyone, no matter what your attitude may be about what has dominated the headlines and changed all of our lives. It changed the way we all functioned on a daily basis and greatly curtailed and altered the things that we have all come to love and enjoy about living in a vibrant, exciting and very diverse community.
