The beginning of 2019 seems a lightyear away. Yet, as we approach the beginning of a new year, of a new decade, I’m also struck by the quickness of time. Even though January feels like forever ago, I’m still not really sure how I made it all the way to December. In many ways, I feel like 2019 was a year that I navigated with my eyes mostly closed, blindly wandering through the final year of my twenties and hurtling toward the new decade that will herald my thirties.
