It has been a trying year for all of us. But as we look through the gloom there are flashes of brightness to be thankful for. The pfizer vaccine has been rolled out and it has been administered to the first person in the USA. The electoral college meets today to cast their final vote in the 2020 voting process. The wheels are still turning even if they have been in slow motion. What do we remember about this year? What lessons have we learned and what is there to be thankful for?
