The end of the year is upon us...

So, Christmas is over and the end of the year is upon us. For myself this year has been full of ups and downs. I've made made major changes and not all of them were easy but at the end of the day I am blessed. I have a wonderful family who when it all comes down to it has my back. I've learned that I have friends that do the same, even though it may have been years since we've seen each other. I have wonderful kids and a good man, which is more than I could have ever asked for. I guess what it all comes down to is knowing what you want and deserve and not settling for less. At times it may be hard and lonely but patience is a virtue and faith will get you through. You get what you put out there. So keep doing what you do. Put goodness out into the world and you in turn will receive it. It may not be when you want or expect it but it WILL come back to you. Sometimes the best things in life are unexpected. Don't be afraid to challenge yourself or go down the road less traveled. You may be presently surprised with the outcome. I hope all of you have had a wonderful Christmas and have an amazing year to come.
