在写这篇文章的题目的时候，不自觉地打下“我的2021”，看来在潜意识中，我是想着2020赶紧过去的。

当2019年结束的时候，我对于2020有着千万种的设想，但绝对没有一种是待在家里哪儿都不去也见不到亲人。彼时，我们计划着意大利或者英国之旅，和公公婆婆庆祝他们的40年结婚纪念日，参加干哥哥和嫂嫂的加州婚礼，和爸妈一起在加州旅行……然后，2020年来了，就没有然后了。

3月24日纽约州长库莫在新冠疫情新闻发布会接近尾声的时候的讲话，让我非常感动。
“We’re going to get through it, because we’re New York, and because we’ve dealt with a lot of things, and because we’re smart. You have to be smart to make it in New York. And we’re resourceful, and we’re showing how resourceful we are. And because we’re united, and when you’re all united, there is nothing you can’t do. And because we’re New York tough. We are tough. You have to be tough. This place makes you tough, but it makes you tough in a good way. We’re gonna make it, because I love New York. And I love New York, because New York loves you. New York loves all of you, Black, White, Brown, Asian, Short, Tall, Gay, Straight……New York loves everyone. That’s why I love New York. It always has, it always will. At the end of the day, my friends, even if it’s a long day, and this is a long day, Love wins, always, and it will win again through this virus.”
我不知道自己算不算是New Yorker，因为这通常是对生活在纽约市里人的特定称谓。但在这一刻，我相信大纽约的每个人都愿意称自己为New Yorker，因为We Love New York，New York Loves Us。
