Please, ignore the odd symbols (ââ¬â¹) throughout the post. I am not sure where they came from. Thanks!
I will not list all of the bad things that make this title feel like a joke. A list is probably already forming in your mind. I want to take a moment to remember some of the good that people accomplished this year.
Let's not forget that the year started with Taylor Swift dropping a beautiful movie of her last concert on her Reputation tour on Netflix so I could watch it over and over. Politics
New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern banned assault weapons so quickly after a terrorist attack on a church that she gave hope to the rest of the world that it can be done.
âVoting rights restored to many ex-convicts in Kentucky.
Alexandria Ocasio Cortez was elected and has not stopped fighting to make change. She is a hero and a queen who was given hope to millions of Americans. (Her website here). Science
Scientists learned that cats recognize their own names- and will still ignore you sometimes.
The second person ever is in sustained remission of HIV.
NASA is growing plants in space...
âThree things: kids spoke up about protecting the environment and fighting climate change and got stuff done (hell yeah!). Also, people planted tons of trees and Greta Thunberg exists.

It's good to remember the little things. Stuff like this always cheers me up! I was only going to share one or two, but then... the little baker has more smiles to share! You can find Roman's Cooking Corner under his mom's name, Ayla Jalyn on Youtube and Instagram.
