Letter to Future Brenna

Dear Brenna (Me),
As I write this letter I am told that forty-fifty year old me would be reading it. That's pretty cool and I bet I am just as awesome. Right now we are currently experiencing a global pandemic and the USA is leading the world in cases. We account for 1/6, almost 2/6, of the world's cases of COVID-19. I feel like everyday I hear about someone new that I know who tested positive. It is scary not only because of how much of an impact it has had, but also because I feel as though I have no knowledge of what the future may hold. Just this time last year I was hanging out with my friends, I would have never ever guessed this scenario. It makes me worried for what even the next few months could hold for me. I feel very uncertain in almost everything that I deal with now. It took me out of school which significantly affected my work ethic and grades. It has caused so much stress in my life. I am hoping that everything will be back to normal soon. I think next school year will be weird because we will probably have to wear masks. I wonder if next year, on snow days, we will do online learning instead. I would like doing online learning for snow days because it means less time taken from summer. I'm not really sure what is going to happen, but I have a certain hope and positiveness in my gut. I think everything will turn out nice and maybe even better than before. I think great things are coming for our country and its people. I hope that I will be able to look back on these words and agree. Hopefully our country and world grows from all that is happening currently and it becomes a greater place for our children and so on.
