2013 has been a very profound year for me. It has offered as a major crossroad for me in life, where I go through changes to push me forward.
I figure we could all use a thread here, for everyone to reflect on this year. The good, the bad, the changes, the similarities... whatever it is this year offered you, let's reflect.
The beginning of this year, I entered a completely different person from who I am now. I was lost. Lost is probably the simplest way to explain it.
What happened since then... I made a decision to change my lifestyle. To stop putting everyone else before me all the time, to care about myself more and set aside time for me.
Even if it meant redefining my self image, buying new make up, replacing my wardrobe... adapting to the life style changes of the ones I love most, to support what they enjoy.
Stop being so sensitive all the time and taking everything personally that I hear and see. That was a major stepping stone for me.
Just generally, getting a grip on myself, slapping myself around a bit to say "get with the program lady, you are running out of chances! Life is too short."
To help out and extend a hand. Stop worrying about the risks, and take them.
Pour out my love for giving despite the cost.
It takes a person to care about themselves, to properly care for others.
Don't get lost in yourselves, the world is much broader~
Love freely, care, and most of all, forgive freely.
When meeting a fellow person, don't judge unless you are free of such judgements.
Accept people the way they are, and help them if you can.
I have gained so many meaningful relations throughout this year, my heart is beating in pure love. I wouldn't trade anything in the world for the year of 2013.
Alas, 2014 approaches, and we must say good-bye to 2013.
I enter the new year as a new version of myself, full of more love and wisdom.
Will continue to carry on the torch through the New Year~
