This is the end, my only…

One of my favorite Doors songs of all times.  The genius lyrics smolder with layers of profound meaning as I somehow relate this song with my own personal reflections of 2020.  I removed the word “friend” in my title.  I would not use that word hand in hand with this undying year, but in a backwards sort of otherwordly sense, it was like a “friend”, a companion of sorts that pushed me to my farthest limits, like a vampire inhaling that last bit of flesh but still standing by watching as I change into a new life.  That is what 2020 means to me.  A major awakening.  A change, unwelcoming and welcoming at the same time.  Lightening speed daily reflections were needed to process all the bad and the good that poured into every phase of every month.  Exhaustion. Fear. Pain.  Delete.  Refresh.  Hope. Love. Grateful. Ready. Transform.  The words that followed me up to today, and with the last word, Transform, standing by, momentously reporting to duty, on guard and ready to catapult me to my unacquainted friend. Goodbye old friend.  Hello new friend.  This is the end, my only friend…
