Post 6 (Last Post): Expectations for 2021

 

My expectations for 2021 are very little optimistic, at least for the first part of the year. The vaccine will arrive in March, but that will not mean that we can return to the life we ​​led before. Despite all this, I hope to finish my career in journalism, and if I have the opportunity to find work in something related. I hope it will be a year full of projects with friends like the one I mentioned creating a magazine, as I wrote in a previous blog.

Work is an issue in itself. The media world is quite complicated, especially in our country, where the transition to digital media has been slow and difficult. And work is increasingly precarious. Although perhaps all times are difficult for journalism.What I hope for this new year, that in the constituent discussion there is a dialogue about a new legislation on the media and the right to communication, linked not only to the media issue itself, but also to culture and education.

Another thing I hope is that 2021 is a good year in terms of relationships, being able to meet more people, because in 2020 with physical distance it is very difficult to meet new people and interact with them. Build new relationships. To be able to settle permanently in Santiago, since this year I had to return to live with my family in Ovalle, and can go back to live with my friends in the apartment that we rented, and to be able to start making the small garden that we had planned.

Another expectation that I have this coming year is that my friends will also achieve their goals. They also have a very difficult year with toxic relationships, some drop out, others, and some get depressed like everyone else. That is why seeing them well, means happiness in itself, because what i have experienced with them. They are part of my family, and their success is my success. The only happiness is collective, and I hope to share with them.

They are small dreams but it is a way to achieve your goals and not feel overwhelmed by all the things that one sets out to do at the beginning of a year. Especially at a time like this year, when all the things we planned for 2020 are gone. I don't want to stress over planning a lot of things because the paths life takes are very dangerous. One year may be even better than planned, but the next may be worse. Ultimately, my only hope is to be able to do what I like to do on a day-to-day basis. And the little things I wrote on this blog.
