Goodbye, 2020

Holy s**t. It's almost over. It's finally over. A year I truly never thought would end. This year went from an expectation of being the best year ever, to the completely unexpected. Overall, this year took a lot out of me, but as I look back on it I see the good that still managed to find its way through. Now, this year defiantly won't go down as a "good" one, but I heard this quote one time that really reflects on this year. "Even in a bad batch of cookies, there is always sugar." I've recovered from one of my worst depression episodes, I've grown closer with people that I would've never expected to be friends with, I turned 16, I got to be in Colorado longer than normal, and so many other good things that God gave me right as I thought bad things were never-ending. But I also lost, and grieved, and shut down, which is so important to note as well. This year will forever leave a stamp on me just because of the substantial growth I had as a person this year. 2020 you took me on the wildest roller coaster ride I've even been on, and you will most certainly never be forgotten.
