Reflections on becoming

Letter no. 20

in

Dear reader from the future,

I’m still writing this during the pandemic, but this letter is about the ongoing unrest between Ukraine and Russia.

Why would we bother?

Because as a people, we are all connected in networks, seen and unseen. And the tension between Ukraine and Russia is starting to seep through all of the global daily affairs.

Price hikes everywhere. And it’s all over the news.

I’ve lived in a time when global affairs are just a click away. You can quickly get updates on what’s going around the world just by going online. And that’s where you find me right now, watching an online live stream of what’s going on in Ukraine while typing these words to you.

A message from a resident in Moscow still rings in my ears, “Please stop the war. We are not enemies.”

And perhaps, with the rest of the world, I am still watching how events will unfold.

I know you’d be reading this from the future, and I hope the tension did not escalate to another world war.

Your letter writer from the past,
Jessa
