There are so many things that happened this past year that really screwed with my happiness. People turned out to be different than I thought they were, I battled with a depression that consumed me, I struggled financially and I was for the most part unhappy. Even though 2016 for the most part sucked it wasn't the worst year of my life and here is why:
1. I learned how to love myself
2. I made new friends who love and support me
3. I didn't fail any classes
4. I learned how to forgive without receiving an apology
5. I was able to afford gas all year because it was never more than $3 a gallon
6. I signed a lease for next year with 2 beauts who I am so excited to become closer with next school year
7. I learned that maturity comes with experience, not age.
8. I learned that being in a relationship isn't as important as I thought.
9. I learned that small acts of kindness are very important
10. Lastly, 2016 wasn't the worst because my family became whole again.
Congrats Mom and Dad on the marriage! Goodbye 2016 and hello 2017. I'm looking forward to the first year of the Sexton Clan officially and legally being the Sexton Clan.
