1st December - The year is approaching its end, always time for reflection for myself personally during this period of time. This past year has been nothing to note, I repeated mistakes I made in my past and swore I never would again, but got back on track by making a heart wrenching decision when strength built up for me. The hardest thing to do in your life is separate from someone you have grown dependant on to be there, but at the same time, there is something amazingly wonderful about leaving it all behind and moving forward, making plans and envisioning new experiences.
Today I was reading quotes from Dalai Lama XIV and this one struck true with me
"When we meet real tragedy in life, we can react in two ways--either by losing hope and falling into self-destructive habits, or by using the challenge to find our inner strength."
It is amazing how you can go either one of two ways, having been in that position myself in the past, as I'm sure you who are reading has been, its amazing how we are all fundamentally the same. Scary infact.
