WOW! I made it! 2013 was such a roller coaster. I went through some really tough times. I dealt with so much pain and hurt. I cried, I laughed. I mourned. I rejoiced. I lost my way. I found my way. I went through a dark and lonely time, a very close family friend committed suicide, my friend got married, another friend had a baby, I made a new friend, and most importantly, I fell in LOVE... with a cat. LOL. No seriously, she is the cutest thing ever.
I reviewed my 2013 goals and can I be honest with y'all? I Laughed Out Loud! Such a FAIL! LOL. Not entirely though.
I achieved all my personal goals which were to:
smile more often
choose to be happy no matter the situation (I did this for the most part)
choose to love everyone regardless of their personalities (Sometimes it was hard but I tried..lol)
Be kinder to people
Improve my communication skills
Volunteer
Cut off my relaxed ends (I am fully natural baby!!!!)
As for my health goals, Hahahahaha! You know how I said I wanted to lose 20lbs, well i gained 20lbs. No thanks to my new friend whose favourIte things to text/say were 'Dinner tonight','Dinner next week', 'Let's check out this restaurant'? LOL. Yes I blame my friend. I had no choice but to say YES all the time :)
Also, I wasn't consistent with the blog. In fact, I didn't blog for 6months. However, I am proud of myself for sticking with it. I noticed on December 31st that I had had 1230 page views in 2013! That freaked me out a little because I didn't think that many people read this blog. Also I had people reading from Canada, Nigeria, Cameroon, Russia,United States, Germany and the Netherlands. Thank you all for reading and thank you to those who give me feedback. Also a big thank you to readers I have never met who checked on me while I was on hiatus. I really appreciate you all.

Although 2013 was filled with ups and downs, there is one thing that was reaffirmed GOD CAN BE TRUSTED! So as I go into the year 2014, I go in with the confidence that I serve a faithful and reliable God. He can be trusted. This year, I wouldn't be doing any resolutions. I just plan to be the best version of myself I can be.
This song describes 2013 perfectly. Whatever you go through this year, DO NOT lose your hope, your joy, your faith or your praise. GOD CAN BE TRUSTED!
