A letter from January 21st, 2021

Dear FutureMe, Despite the colorful 2020, I am grateful for three things that I have experienced during this unprecedented time. First, I learned how to cope with uncertainties and trying to stay calm especially when hearing friends and relatives battling with Covid-19. Feeling helpless and yet wanting to help, I ended up with more meditations and prayers; sometimes it works and all is fine in the end. Second, I started to reach out to old childhood friends. We never thought that we would get this close again after being over 30 years apart. Now we have a true and sincere support system at our age, that is something. Together we started to do something for the greater good, too. The third and last, meeting new friends and becoming a family in such short times. All these are very heart-warming. These keep me going every day and if I had a chance to do over, I would certainly choose this.
