Is Hope a Dirty Word? - Cai Emmons - Medium
I would like to dismiss 2021 as a terrible, no-good, very bad year, a year to be sept away and forgotten as quickly as possible.

So if you have your own recommendations to share, I’ll add them to the stack of books and movies I hope to catch up on over the holidays!Favorite Books ...
