When you think of 2015, what do you think of more...your accomplishments or your failures? I've been going through this year in my mind like crazy since last week and all I can think of is how extremely blessed I am to be able to have traveled, loved, conquered, fought and most importantly lived the life that I've been given. I think the beauty in life is jumping over hurdles and accomplishing things you didn't know you could, it's been one of those years for me and I couldn't be more grateful to know that with faith and confidence I can reach my highest potential. I can't stop thinking of my accomplishments and all the goals I've set and achieved. It wouldn't be life without a few minor setbacks and mistakes along the way, but in the words of my kindred spirit Carrie Bradshaw "maybe our mistakes are what makes our fate" and these "hurdles" as I like to call them mold us into these super human people that make us prepared for almost anything.
I like to think that I am strong and can handle almost anything because of things I've seen and been through, but most importantly because of the people I surround myself with. I have a huge family and infinite friends that I'm beyond grateful for, I think 2015 has taught me a lot about what I need and being honest with myself so as I go into 2016 I made a few promises...but before I share those with you, check out a few of my favorite memories from 2015 below.
