Pretty insane to think we only have a couple more days of 2014, lets make the most of it and finish strong! 2015 is right around the corner and like 2014 I imagine its going to be filled with change. 

2014 was probably the most life changing year for me personally. I went through a lot of personal 

struggles with my family and had to learn to trust again in general. To this day I still feel like I am working on that, and I don't think I will be completely healed after a years time. It's going to be something I will have to deal with this upcoming year and then some. I graduated college and landed a job I love doing! It's crazy to look back and really see how much growth occurred this year and see how much has changed. With so many amazing highs I had in 2014 I experienced so many lows,  probably some of my darkest and hardest times happened this year. I found out some facts about people that completely discredited them in my eyes. To see and hear some of the things I went through; I felt trapped. I felt like I couldn't tell anyone, I then resorted to talking to a counselor at school several times and consulting with family & friends to ease the pain I felt. Really the people I decided to confide in showed me how important they were to keeping me on the right track and not letting a personal struggle derail me from school.  Though I had issues going on in my personal life, my support system did not let those issues stop me. Even typing this up and retelling what happened, I feel a lump in my throat. If any of you are experiencing a struggle in life I suggest confiding in someone, find a counselor to give you an objective opinion or a friend to support you and listen to you. There is no reason to suffer silently with no one to tell, because you can always find someone. Having the strength from my friends and family I threw myself into my work at school and finished my last semester strong. Not long after that all my handwork paid off. I found my job and have been working since. I redirected my energy from dwelling on my problems to my school work which in the end was another way to ease the pain. I think 2014 definitely made me a stronger person, I feel that I possess more resiliency than I thought. Though the lows of 2014 make me sad, I am glad that those problems happened because I grew from that and showed myself I can prevail through the hardest of times. I'm sure 2015 will be the same, I will experience hardships and successes. But I will know how to deal with them, and get through them. What ever 2015 brings, it will be the best yet because I know I am ready for it!

Go out there and kick-ass, 2015 is ours!
