2020 is a year unlike any other in my lifetime. It’s exciting, terrifying, and extremely unpredictable. Trying to put words to my journey through this year is a challenge. I think the best way to describe this journey is through comparison. I was raised in the countryside of Kentucky and one of my favorite pastimes in recent years has been identifying the wildflowers that always bloom in the spring and summer months. It’s these flowers? persistence that seems to inspire my curiosity. Every year these wildflowers seem to flourish despite their environments. They end up growing next to highways or even between cracks in old cement yet they seem perfectly content. With that in mind I’d like to think of myself as a wildflower, growing, or even flourishing, despite the hurdles this year has thrown me. I can’t wait to grow alongside my fellow classmates this year at ÎÞÂëÇ¿¼é.
