Goodbye to a long and sad 2008

With a strong drink in my hand and a brain about to explode with thoughts to type I am reflecting on 2008. What a year...

A year of lots of downs, few ups and many in the middle days. But one that I can say has changed and shaped me for better and for worse. This past year has hardened my heart but softened it to two people. It has brought heartache to my world but also the feeling of love. 2008 has made me scared and fearful but has also made me confront alot of fears. This is one year I am looking forward to leaving.

I have not had much hope this year but 2009 brings a new start and new hope for me, it is a year in which I want to achieve something and make my parents proud. It is a year that I want to spend glorifying God and living for Him. But it is also a year where I hope to find happiness, joy and love once again. I want the man I love to get over his fear and to be with me. That is asking alot but I believe we can and will make it through to fight and love another day.

2009 is a year for love, smiles, gladness, friends, family and most of all being on fire for God!
