I remember back in 2019, when I thought 2020 had to a special year. I mean, the numbers alone seemed like a promise for something epic. Nowadays, I think we were all pretty naive. In a world economy where you can pretty much travel around the world during a day, seclusion and isolation seem improbable. But that's the thing about looking back: It's a lot easier to reflect on events from the past than it is to predict events in the future. We knew approximately three months of severe lockdown in the Netherlands in 2020. After 4.5 months of lockdown earlier this year, we've already got half a month at the end of the year. It's said to last only a few more weeks into 2022, but like I said predicting the future is difficult. But reflecting on the past, it teaches us that chances of the country being in lockdown for a few more months are more than 50%. Last year, I was hopeful.

and see my dimples rise as underlings
to terrorize your pond face, scold its careful
glass with frost or lunge into your acquiescence,
the satin cinch for your panoplies,

no biorhythms to sicken with childish bellows from my song?
there is no dormant eggshell to gather up this loss
and nothing left from which to bir

Kaz-D (https://www.deviantart.com/kaz-d) has been a force on the Community Volunteer team for around five years and you have seen her handy work in several photography groups, countless articles and of course projecteducate (https://www.deviantart.com/projecteducate). Without Kaz-D (https://www.deviantart.com/kaz-d), projecteducate (https://www.deviantart.com/projecteducate) would not have been as successful as it has been and it was through her leadership that Community Weeks were born and the inclusion of non-volunteer contributors began --making it a true community effort :)
Today we celebrate a truly awesome volunteer and thank her immensely for her contributions to this community.
Thank you Kaz-D (https://www.deviantart.com/kaz-d) :heart:
