Dear next generation,

Wisdom is not a product of time, but a product of applied knowledge enhanced through the opportunity of time. We have had a year of uncertainty and wild calamity, yet it has presented the proposition of change and, most importantly, wisdom.

With that knowledge, applied, let us all use wisdom to move forward.
