We all inevitably look back on the past year, take a moment to ponder how we handled certain challenges and tragedies, mostly how did we handle the good times. Did we really remember how blessed we are?
You would think by my last few posts that I don't seem to remember that I'm blessed but that's not true. I know that I'm blessed, I have SO much to be grateful for. When I count my blessings, it always amazes me how lucky I am and have been.
Although I don't have very good memories of 2012, I know that down the line I will grow from all of this. I never give up, I always find a way to keep going. Then just when I think I'm satisfied with my life, something wonderful happens to show me that life is not all about sadness.
Although this year challenged me more than any other year that I can remember; I can honestly say that I'll never trade any of the beautiful memories that led up to 2012. There were times that I questioned whether they were worth the pain that followed.
No matter what road life leads me to in the future, I'll never regret those amazing few months of 2011. I was honestly never happier in my life, I felt whole, complete and I felt I was right where I was supposed to be.
Life had other plans for me, somewhere down the road; I'll know the reason why, it will all make sense. Until then, I don't plan to think too much about 2012, I want to look towards 2013 and the future.

ReplyDelete2012 will be one memorable year for me as a blogger. I bought my domain name and my blog became more active compared to the previous year. The time when I met you, I was still groping for ways on how to properly set up my blog; hence, the occasional questions that I sent you. :-) You were part of those online memories. Your charm and warmth, I will always remember. Thank you for the friendship. Happy New Year, Launna.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Rhodora, I wish you happiness and success in the New Year and beyond:)
