Hello and aloha,
Oh how times have changed. Ten years ago I was basking in the sweet life of living in Hawaii. Today, the country, the world, is practically in lockdown with the COVID-19 virus. Life has surely been altered beyond what anyone could have imagined 10 years ago.
So, this is just a quick check in to say that things may not go according to plan and yes, things were certainly different 10 years ago, both personally and in society. Keep hanging in there. Get that positive attitude back and keep aiming for your goal whatever that may be.
Take care and stay safe out there.
