A Year of Rest
As someone who has had insomnia and studied sleep and how to fix sleep patterns for 17 years, I've had a lot of reasons to make a resolution for sleep in 2022. With all of the crazy, busy, and stressful events of the last few years everyone I know is getting less rested and more stressed but maybe that's just in the service industry I work in. Bartending is an unforgiving job at the best of times, but recently with no one knowing whether we'll be shut down again and with people getting sick and needing to pick up the slack stress has been at an all-time high and sleep has been at an all-time low. It's time to dedicate the new year to fix that.

Crafting a Life
I've had a life that is full of untapped potential. I was given ingredients I had no way of understanding: pain, turmoil, anger, hate, depression, anxiety and I had no way of knowing how to take these and make something new. I spent a long portion of my life letting these ingredients eat at my core, erode my sense of self until I was lost. I felt hopeless, useless, and without value until I stepped behind the bar one day at work because there is magic in doing things and a particularly powerful type of healing in the magic of doing things for others.

Serving in 2020
First of all, I don't want anything about this to become controversial. 2020 has effected all of us differently, we've lost loved ones, we've had massive disagreements on what's right and how to achieve safety, and I know that all comes into play when we read things. This isn't meant to be a justification for a viewpoint, it's just about my experience and the experience of my friends and co-workers trying to navigate working in a restaurant with all of the things that have gone on this past year.
