processing...

Yesterday, my 14-year-old cousin said, “We’re living through a social studies chapter” and I can’t stop thinking about that, about him, about how young people are processing this moment.

I too wonder...Will young people carry their feelings now for years to come? Are their young lives compromised? Will they be tainted with sadness that never leaves? And as adults, will they change? Their characters? Their outlook on the world? 

Impossible to know answers for now... we older ones will never know...
