2008…

in this past year so many things have happened…so many things in my life changed. i’ve dealt with a death, a life taken by cancer. it hit our family so hard. i’ve experienced pain and loss. i’ve experienced a failed relationship, something that was so difficult, but i know that it was probably the best thing. i’ve gained new friends and started my career. i’ve learned so much and still i want to learn more. i’ve grown so much, but i still have so much more growing to do. i’ve laughed so much and i’ve also cried a lot. i’ve made so many memories and experienced things that i will never forget. i think that going from day to day we all get in our routine and its so easy to get into a rut. so easy to be negative about things, but we all have to remember that everything could be so much worse. its easy to look back at the past year that isn’t even over yet and just remember the huge horribly sad things that have happened. but i need to remember the great, amazing things also. life is a crazy thing. “things changes, friends leave, and life doesn’t stop for anybody.” i’m interested to see what the end of 2008 and all of 2009 holds for me. i hope its full of experiences. good and bad.
