Opinion: 2020 was more than a lost year

New Westminster Record: If you made New Year's Resolutions for 2020, you had the best excuse for not keeping them up beyond March. The pandemic – and the continuous upheaval to our healthiest routines – sabotaged our plans, rearranged our goals and restricted the many joys of daily life. With any other year, I would sit down with my family to review the old calendar. We would be surprised with what has happened in the span of just one year. The media recapitulates the big world events with retrospective spins, but what matters most to you and me are our personal experiences.
