2020 was a year that changed life as we know it.

In this collection of poetry and prose, Gooden explores her longing for more than the daily routine as she makes her way through a “once in a lifetime” world event.

In the middle of turmoil, she creates magic in the mundane as she examines her life in an honest, poignant, and often irreverent way.

As she reflects on life and all it encompasses through a healthcare worker’s perspective, she proves there can be light even in the darkest of days.
