Well… we can’t really paint the complete picture of how life after covid-19 will undoubtedly look like, but that doesn’t mean it should stop us from making plans for the future.
Also, I don’t know if it’s just me, but the past almost two years now, ever since the pandemic hits and has been spreading all around the globe — every day seems like just another day, yet the time flew by in the blink of an eye.
We have all had to sacrifice our joys for the sake of humanity, which IS the right thing to do. Most of us also missed what was meant to be our ‘greatest memory,’ senior year prom.
With that being said, I have learned that time is no joke; anything could happen. We all should start doing or ‘planning’ Image via Bucket List
