Goodbye and a new hello!

I have been MIA but no points for guessing who is back!

My life is good. I got my priorities right. I am not scared of Covid anymore. I am quite consistent with my workouts. I am not addicted to Instagram reels. Stress is a thing of the past. And none of that is true btw. 

It's April 2022 but nobody can tell me if Covid is a thing of the past, or a part of life now. My birthday is about a month away and it would be nice to know if I would be celebrating it after two years, or continue with the tradition of sulking? Who has been praying for a covid-free world, and do they know if it's working? I ask my nephew if he has the answer to my very valid questions but all he says is babababa so I'm assuming it's a no. 

I am entering another year where I put social media statuses that reiterates that 'being single is the best thing ever', while I secretly long for companionship. Perhaps I should believe that random influencer who swears that all the good guys are now gone and I should adopt a dog and live a happy life together! I am neither a dog person nor a cat person, just a human person if that makes sense?  

I am also trying very hard to set my sleep cycle. However, there are a couple of questions that keep me up at night - How many goodbyes are we going to say to each other until we know that it's finally over? Are goodbyes not forever? 

I open Facebook (yes, it still exists) and it reminds me of a little poem I wrote in 2010:

I'm fed up of guys, they all lie.

They break our hearts and make us cry.

Loving a guy is such a sin,

Oh! Look at the guy who has just walked in. 

I am going to have the same energy in 2022 as well. Say goodbye and wait for a new hello!
