Dear Hagemaru,

How are you? I hope you are in the pink of your health when this letter reaches you. Mother and father are doing well these days. How are aunt and uncle there? I hope they are sailing the boat of good health as well.

As school breaks are approaching, I was hoping that we can go for a picnic or vacation in Malaysia. However due to the pandemic, it is better for us to stay safe and to stay at home. In the last letter, you wrote that this pandemic had impacted in many ways.  I know it’s tough and that every day is filled with uncertainty. I share in your feelings of anxiety. I miss being able to see people without fear. Many people are experiencing all of these strong emotions and I know how overwhelming it can be. In the face of hardship, we have to stay strong.

Strength can mean many things. It doesn’t mean you can’t be sad. It doesn’t mean you can’t cry. Being strong can be something as little as acknowledging your feelings, or pushing through a hard day but still getting up the next morning. Just know that you have made it this far. You are strong and there are always people who will listen to you.

Always wash your hands with soaps for at least 20 seconds. Bring your sanitizer everywhere you go. Wash the clothes you wore every time you go outside. Remember to take the vaccine the moment your number is up. I miss you. Take care and stay safe.

Love,

Shizuka Minamoto
