Day 131
Fresh Start_131: 2016, what to say, what to say…
With today being the last
day of 2016, I want to write a letter looking back at a year that wasn’t the
best year of my life, but was definitely needed for me. I would like to thank
2016 while also giving 2016 a well-deserved f*ck you. So here it goes…
Dear 2016,
Thank you for everything
you have done for me. Thank you for teaching me a lot about this world in the
roughest way possible. Thank you for making everything that made me a better person
overall and everything with my YouTube channel and this blog hard. It was an
incredible life lesson. Coming into this year, I had the best year of my life
and I guess it was fitting that you would come up and smack reality in my face,
after what seemed like a fantasy year in 2015. Thank you for teaching me how to
deal with heart break and the difficulties of college, and balancing life
around. Thank you for making me a stronger person. This year from end to end
was overall a year from hell and thank you for making me a truly better person.
So thank you so much, I wouldn’t be the same person without the struggle.
Although I can’t knock
you for all of the year. Throughout the “year from hell” were scattered bright
spots. I accomplished a ton on my YouTube channel and have hit a stride that
will definitely continue into 2017. My partner and I wanted to make 2016 our
year on the channel and for what we introduced and accomplished on the channel
is absolutely amazing. The friends that I have made and became closer with
throughout the year is something that is just priceless. The memories from the
summer and the 1st semester of college are things I’ll also hold on
to. Edging out some other people is also something that is necessary and thank
you for showing me the right way with that.
Finally, from the
perspective of this blog, thank you for everything that has happened on this
blog. Providing daily content is what I set out to do from the beginning and rekindling
that with the Fresh Start series is something that makes my day better, is an
escape, and is making me a better writer all at the same time. The amount of
content and the quality of that content is something I take great pride in,
while also understanding the challenge of writing every day. Thank you for
kicking me in the rear end and making me get into gear, so I can make 2017 the
best year, and every year in the future better and better. Having a year like
this, allows myself to look back and dwell while also having that consent
motivation to never have another year like this. You were a necessary evil
2016, and I’m more than happy you are over and down with.
