The Beach
A couple of years ago, I decided to paint a picture of the ocean because of how much I admired its beauty, realizing how lucky I was to be able to visit it in person anytime I liked as it was only a mere twenty minutes away. I would have never thought two years later in 2020 a global pandemic would occur and take away this joy in my life, keeping everyone all cooped up in their homes in hopes of slowing the spread of COVID-19. While it was hard to have to leave school in the middle of junior year, adjust to online AP exams, depart from teachers and friends, stop playing sports, and so much more, I know social distancing is a necessity during this difficult time. I understand this pandemic has changed many of our lives quite negatively as we have to isolate ourselves and sacrifice going out to have fun and socialize; however that does not mean people should flood the beaches or malls out of spite or as part of a protest against the government's orders. Though I wish I could go outside to an amusement park or beach with my family and friends, I know what's more important is respecting all the essential workers by staying home, and I hope more people are able to understand this bigger picture as well. -
