Thank You to 2023
2023 has been a year of many trials and tribulations. I continue to learn about myself, how to be gentle to myself, and how to love those around me. Spending more time with loved ones is important and how it can continue filling my bucket. I am thankful for those relationships that have been fostered throughout the year. I am thankful for you, the reader. Your comments, words of encouragement, and time motivate me to continue this writing journey. No matter how hard it gets, I will push along and share my thoughts, and hurts, and be vulnerable.

Here is to another year. Another year of continued growth. A year where all the blessings are possible, a year where we can all laugh about the past, a year where hit our goals, a year where we can help others, a year where we volunteer more, a year where we can enjoy the fruits of our labor. This year let’s bet on ourselves. Let’s motivate each other. Let’s be our support system. This year we can be one.
