For some, it happens slowly: the regard for things such as giving out treats on Valentine’s Day, or trick-or-treating on Halloween, is gradually coaxed out of that part of your brain labeled “important things.” For others, it occurs like the shattering of a window: One well-placed pebble brings down the entire illusion. Perhaps you caught your guardian eating Santa’s cookies, or woke up on Easter Day to find that the bunny hadn’t come, and instead, it was time to have a serious conversation about holiday mascots. Either way, every one of us experiences that cruel transition from childhood to adulthood, characterized by a loss of wonder and the increasing presence of a monotonous cycle of responsibilities. You come to forget what day of the year you must wear green to avoid getting pinched, but are intensely aware of when your bills are due.

We got to view a very special cosmic event on Monday. According to National Eclipse, the next total solar eclipse won’t happen in the United States until 2044. This got me thinking about how much can happen in 20 years. What will we have discovered, what problems will we face, and what will we solve? It would have been hard to guess 20 years ago how the world would look today. I mean, I wasn’t even born 20 years ago. So, as we wait for the next eclipse, let's look forward to the next 20.

I remember it clearly; I was sitting in my sociology class with the news on full display for the whole class to see. The room was dark, and the Smart Board projected its bright light at us. The news headline read something like “COVID-19 pandemic underway.” Everyone was freaking out; students were staying home sick left and right, all bedridden with this same illness. The final day of school was two weeks out. What was happening and what would happen to us?
