Title: “You Are Thriving, Nikola M.”

You are thriving during the most momentous event that will ever occur in your lifetime. May the path you choose moving forward reflect the dedication to excellence and the natural curiosity in which you have always delighted. May you hold the memory of this time close to your heart and draw strength from the knowledge that you continued to pursue your undergrad degree without abandoning your dreams. You survived and found a way through this crisis, for you have the genetically imprinted resilience of thousands of generations of survivors. I am proud to call you my child. I am proud of who you are becoming. I am proud to have you join us as nurturers of future generations and adventurers into the unknown.

You are a shining example of what humanity strives to create in birthing a new generation.

I love you beyond measure,

Mama
