I will not miss this year that is ending | Letters Updated Dec 30, 2020; Facebook Share This year we found more than 317,000 families to cry for, millions more who lost everything, and a year of plagues that never ended. I will not miss the fear, the heartache or the abject terror. I will not miss wanting to hug someone or shake their hand but being unable to do so. I will not miss trying to show joy through a mask. This has been a year without touch, without promise, without a democracy coming together as one to defeat a common enemy. It was a year in which the world changed, and not for the better; we still did not accept those who are different from us, or cannot be us. It was a year of hatred and anger, Black vs. white, police vs. citizens, hate vs. love, truth vs. fiction, and politics vs humanity.
