High School Graduates of 2020

                                                                                                                                                                         

     This spring has been a season of sacrifice being forced to give up the last few weeks of going to school with your classmates and participating in graduation ceremonies.  Your sacrifice in order to stay healthy and allow others to stay healthy is a great accomplishment.  You have learned to appreciate the freedoms so often taken for granted.  You have had the opportunity to spend more time with your family and find ways to use this extra time at home.
     Learn from this unique experience; put all into perspective as people all over the world are going through this situation and many people in past generations have faced similar hardships.  Hopefully, we will learn how to better handle future problems.  When these unusual times have passed, you will be able to get on with your future, perhaps continuing your education in the fall.
      Realize what is essential to live a good life.  Appreciate your healthy body and mind.  Be thankful for your family for what they do for you and seek ways to do good for others.  Be aware of what other people are doing for you especially the scientists discovering ways to keep the earth and its inhabitants safe plus all the caregivers ready to help you when you most need their services.
     Savor the moments of your life, the sweet and sour, the bland and spicy.  Listen to all sides of an issue and keep an open mind.  Breathe in the fresh air and keep our environment healthy.  See and appreciate the beauty of nature.  Feel the love you absorb and give your love to others.
