Here's to the 2s

We are launched now into a universe of 2s. The year 2022. Grandchildren who will be turning two this year. And something else that will, I'm sure, soon come to mind. 

Time to ponder the beauty of the number, its rounded hump, the way the zero looks tucked between the 2s. There is an elegance there, a hopefulness, too. 

Long ago there was an advertisement for a car rental company, Avis, I believe, which said, in effect, "We're number two. We try harder."

Let's hope this year's 2s try harder, too.
