hello 2017

This year was one of the toughest years of my life. I faced many trials but I grew in so many different ways.

2016 was a year full of lessons
I learned (more) patience
I learned that goodbyes are one of the most difficult things
I learned who I can trust
I learned who my real friends are
I learned that junior year SUCKS
I learned how to push through trials
I learned how to always think about the positive even if it seems impossible
I learned that the gospel brings happiness
I learned how to develop trust in my Heavenly Father

This year brought many difficulties and trials to my life. I am learning daily how to push through them. Every trial is made to help you become stronger. I am forever grateful for this year because, I met some of the most AMAZING people that have blessed my life so much.

NOW FOR 2017

Wow i am so ready for this new year. There are so many things I want to accomplish this year. I always suck at New Years Resolutions. COMPLETELY AWFUL actually. They last about one week then I give up. So instead of doing huge goals this year, I want to make them somewhat sensible.

This year I want to develop more patience. One thing I have always struggled with is having patience. I have learned BETTER patience but this year I want to continue to gain more.

This year I want to reach out to others, be there for everyone. I want to become more outgoing and show love for strangers.

This year I want to help others also, I have always wanted to do a humanitarian project. Even if it's unlikely to do it this year, I can help in different ways.

This year I want to FINISH A BOOK! Its been way way too long since I have. I really just want to read Harry Potter again, my year will be complete.

This year I want to take more photos. To capture all the good moments happening in my life. I also want to create more GREAT memories!!

This year I need to become better at writing. BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN SLACKING!

I could literally go on and on about goals I want to accomplish... but I better keep this list short if I am going to keep it realistic.

                                           LETS HOPE THIS YEAR IS THE BEST YET
