Dear 2013,
You’ve been quite the mixed bag – great news, horrendous news & everything in between! Who knew so much could happen in just one year?
The great news made parts of 2013 the best year of my life, in the same way that the shitty parts made 2013 one of the worst years in my recent history.
Being in the last week of December, it’s come to the time of year where we reflect on the year that was, and look ahead to the year that’s going to start in under a week. As for me, I’m exhausted! Mentally exhausted from the up & down year that was 2013. I haven’t slowed down mentally for months and if I could hibernate and hide from some parts of reality…I would!
At the same time, I’m incredibly thankful for the good parts of the past year and the people and situations that made 2013 amazing. These situations are ones where I got what I consider to be the best news of my life and made me realise that life can be beautiful.
There have been a few close friends who’ve rode the ups and downs of the last year with me and have provided unending encouragement, support and love. These people all know exactly who they are and hopefully they also know how grateful I am for their impact on my life. Thank you to all those amazing, gorgeous souls.
As 2013 draws to an end, here’s hoping 2014 brings more of the good stuff and eases up slightly on the terrible parts. I’ve learnt so much this year and can’t wait to put it into action as I continue to grow and develop as a person over the next 12 months.
So, to 2013, thank you for teaching me what I needed to know! For the lessons, I’m thankful. For the good times, I’m also thankful. For the rubbish you dumped on me…well, I’m glad to see that part gone!
