It’s the last day of 2021. This year has been filled with many ups and some downs. A few of my family members passed away. There were devastating stories that were covered on the news. I didn’t complete a few personal goals. On the positive side, I saw many positive stories filled with hope and spent more time with my family. I talked to God more, I appreciated my blessings more, I dreamed more, and I never gave up.
