 A new blog to contain answers to prompts |
Since my old blog "Everyday Canvas "  became overfilled, here's a new one. This new blog item will continue answering prompts, the same as the old one. Cool water cascading to low ground

| Prompt: 2025 Was it a good year or a bad year? Write about this in your Blog entry today. -------------- I guess in some ways, 2025 could have been a good year, especially because we didn't have the terrible stuff and all the negatives of the Covid years, and especially 2020. But I don't want to go there, to possibly the worst year of my life. Then, I don't also want to call any year good just because it lacked a certain negative or two...especially with all the world problems still going on, now. To be fair, though, let me talk about the positives of 2025, first. Judging from the social media, I think people across the world began talking about everything. Naming problems may not seem as if things will get any better, but at least, we the people are doing that. It could as well be the first step toward fixing things. I guess, I have to add the advances in technology, in ai, to the mix, although I am truly suspicious of where we are going with that, but the cat is out of the bag and we'll see how it all washes out. Also, there were conscious changes starting with the consuming public, us individuals, in how we live, how we eat, and how we can help life on this planet. The best yet, IMHO, I saw a higher resilience in humans. We adapted to uncertainties and changes quite well. On the down side, social and political divisions and divisiveness increased, As their result, we had global instability with all the wars, both economically and between countries. Most economies suffered and already high prices went up even higher. Then, came the impacts of the climate with all the floods and other natural disasters. There is a big gap in between what needs to be done and what is being done in almost all areas. While my thinking may not be totally right, because I don't know all the facts, I still think, as people of the world, we are still growing and are having growing pains. The good news is, to me, we humans are capable of much better growth and adjustment. I so hope we can, someday in the future, look at 2025 fairly and see that it mirrored us by reflecting our wrongs and by showing that we can learn, however slowly, to do much better. I may not be around to see it, but I'm crossing my fingers that we'll all do much better, somehow. |
