The Last 4 Years
~ by Hénock Gugsa ~
FC ===> The last four years are in the category of life experiences. They are neither good or bad, as they are simply events from which other events will emerge.
HG ===> FC, ... Sometimes, I can't swallow neither "good" nor "bad" despite the connectivity between them. But right now, it feels like a respite from whatever situation we've been in; and I'm aware things could change back. I'm thinking positive thoughts to maintain my current state of calm and tranquility.
FC ===> Changing back is impossible, and it's not desirable either.
Change is the constant, let's adapt to it. 😉
HG ===> FC, ... You are right, of-course, 'changing back' is not a plausible concept. I should have chosen my words carefully. What I was striving to get across is the idea of a reversal of direction, i.e. going backward instead of forward as in physical motion.
Despite the futility of attempts to affect 'change', as humans, we never tire of trying ... we think and believe that under similar sets of conditions, similar outcomes can be achieved again and again. But isn't that what scientists believe in when they keep trying to simulate a situation? Politicians want to take us back to a former time (e.g.- MAGA). Then, on the other hand, there are those who want to move us forward to a utopia of sorts, and they don't want their idea of 'a perfect world' to change.
The whole point of my post is to state that I did not particularly like our experiences of the last 4 years, and my subjective prognostication for the years ahead is : relief and continued improvement. We'll see !!! 🤔
