Hi Kate, the human life has certain events which shape the direction that life takes. Some of the events are unscheduled and some are planned to commemorate a structured period of growth. These events are helpful because we can look back in the future and reflect on the way we have evolved. In this case, your planned event is trumped by an unscheduled event. Hopefully you can find deserved recognition of your great achievement in these virtual alternatives and realize many great events will occur because of this achievement.
Love, Uncle Joe
