Hello again, Newgroundites. It seems once again Lock Day is upon us. This year makes twenty years since I first joined the Lock Legion back in 2024. I thought it would be nice to revisit a small little joke flash I made to reflect on a milestone ten years ago and expand on it a bit. I do wish I was able to create something just as silly as that one, but at the moment I think some quiet reflection is called for. In any case, i hope you can find a little joyin viewing this.

Time is a funny thing. When you're younger it seems like you have all the time in the world and that the future is always bright. As you get older it becomes almost frightening just how fast time can fly by without you even realizing it. Sometimes it seems as if you blinked and suddenly an entire decade has flown by and you're just left wondering what just happened.

It could be that I'm just much more introspective about things because I lost a loved one yesterday. Still, I think it's a positive to take a step back and breath now and again and just see where you've come and where you'd like to go in life.

I love you, Grandma. Thank you for always being there for me.
