I'm thankful for a lot of blessings despite the hardships and difficulties, despite the pain and sorrow that the previous year brought. I'll let bygones be bygones and leave the past as it is. I won't forget though, I won't forget everything that made the past year rewarding on its own.
I'd like to believe that I've grown and matured since then. I've learned a lot and I'm still willing to learn more. I'd still make mistakes and mess up but at least I'd be more responsible for all the decisions I'll make. I'd fall in love again then perhaps get hurt for a few more times but I won't give up on love, not now, not ever.
In the past year, I lost and gained - lost loved ones, earned new friends; lost some battles, gained new perspectives; lost a bit of myself, gained more of others. Changes, they happen. I have to deal with them or end up losing more than I could bear to lose.
As I write this, I'm at home, surrounded by my family. With them and with every single person who truly loves and cares for me, I'd be more than willing to spend the next twenty or more years of my life. :)
Thank you Heavenly Father for blessing me with 21 years of existence! Thanks a lot for everyone who made this day extra special - my family and relatives, my teachers and classmates, my friends and loved ones. Please let them know how much I love them. Thank You for making my wishes come true. I'm so happy to be Your child. Thanks a lot for everything! :)
