Date: 2024-01-01 02:38 pm (UTC)My husband used to do this meme in its entirety on Facebook every year, and several years ago he got fed up with the whole thing and culled it down to what he felt were the core questions:
Good things
Song of the year
Musical discovery of the year
Best concert
Best TV series
Best book read
Best film
Plans for next year
Song lyric that sums up the year (he dropped that one this year)
I'd probably keep a few more sections (I like the life lessons one, for example), but at least half the questions feel aimed at someone much younger, and with many fewer personal and financial responsibilities than I have.
I feel like, watching the last several years go by, this is something more important than ever.
I don't think I'll ever stop feeling this is important — and you're right that it's definitely been the heavy experiences of the past few years that brought this home to me.
