The end of 2017 is fast approaching and 2018 will soon be here. Now I'm not one who usually takes time to reflect on how my year went and all that has happened. However, this year feels different. So much has changed in my life in the course of 365 days. I can't say it was good either. All I know is looking back on this year. I know I only can move forward. Each year I get closer to discovering who I am and who I want to be. Even though I am still young with many many more new years to come I feel as if I have aged ten years with this one. I was forced to learn huge life lessons and the impact a single life can have. I realized that even though someone may look happy and act happy they could be dying inside. Maybe know I'll try to look for more signs.... however it's never that simple.
Even though life gets hard you know you only have one choice in what direction you go in. You can only move forward. Even if you wanted to stay right where you are it's not an option. It never was nor with it ever be. Maybe we can find some sort of comfort in the fact that we are never stuck. Life changes everyday. One thing is constant though, tomorrow always turns into day. It always comes.
I grew a lot in 2017 and I know I will continue to grow during 2018. I'm looking forward to starting the year with a lovely boyfriend, friends who love me, and a family I adore. I know that no matter how hard life seems at one point or another I have people who help me be strong enough to push through. So thanks to everyone in my life, because even if you don't think you have, or do, you did or do affect me. Everyone in my life means something to me. Even if at times, I'm annoyed or angry, or wishing I couldn't care about certain people and the choices they decided to make, I care. I will always care.
So here's to the beginning of a New Year. Here's to leaving behind all the stuff that happened this year and preparing for the amazing one that is surely to come. Welcome the New Year and don't dwell on what is in the past. It's in the past, no changing it now. Do keep those great and meaning full memories of the year close to your heart.
Happy New Year everyone!
Love,
The renewed and ready for the new year and all to come,
me.
