Dear Senior Jack,


My definition of success is not having a big house, a boat, cars, and a big wallet. My definition of success is if you are happy and you know that you’ve accomplished something that benefited the world, rich or poor. I hope my success in high school will be good grades, and good memories. I hope the success in my future is something that made the world just a little better that I can be proud of. During high school I expect to have ups and downs. Hopefully more ups, but no matter what happens, I will push through. I fear money problems in the future, or anything that the big bad world throws at me. But no matter what happens, I will stand up, and push through. I hope you (future me) have still gone through with our plans for the future. I hope you still decide to go to college and when we are out of college, we will join the U.S. Army. Then we will see what happens with that, maybe I get promoted to higher ranks, maybe I get to go home and I will become a police officer. Hopefully the world then is better then now. As you may know, it’s 2020, so not too many good things have happened. Hopefully in your time, there is no more coronavirus. I expect our home to be the same. Maybe mom bought a new lamp. Maybe Dad built something new. But, mostly the same. Hopefully the Giants, Mets, or Rangers have won a championship or two. Or maybe, they will lose in heartbreak. I hope Michael Conforto has won MVP. I also hope the giants have a defense. I expect my hobbies to be the same. I hope I will still play baseball, I think I will still like to chill on my phone, as well as game and hangout with the boys. I hope my friend group is still close and well. I hope I don’t lose any relatives. I hope to get to know people outside of Madison. Well, whatever happens, I hope i’m happy. I’m currently on facetime with Justin, Brandon, and Tommy, they all say hi. Well, this is where the letter ends. I’ve talked to you about what I want to talk about. I haven’t got any answer, probably because you're in the future. But, if they’ve invented a time machine, feel free to drop by. But, they probably haven’t. So time will answer my questions. I hope you are well and happy. Also congrats, we’ve made it this far, we can make it anywhere. Congrats future Jack, go make the world a better place



Sincerely,
8th Grade Jack
