My year in all its glory

29th of December 2020

This is the year I want to forget.

This is the year I wish had never happened but I cant change anything.

This is the year the world went upside down.

This is the year I feel in love and my heart broke.

This is the year I thought everything would be ok during the summer.

This is the year I got a hug in March and the next one in December

This is the year I did not see my friends in person and this is the year I missed my friends dearly, more than ever before.

This is the year when I was afraid for the world because of a madman in the White House

This is the year when I saw the sorrow in many of my friends lives when they lost their closest to a illness no one knew existed .

This is the year I will learn from.

This is the year I was told I was a bloody bitch.

This is the year I was told I was being loved more than anything in the world.

This is the year I don´t understand and this is the year when I found myself hiding in my soul.

This is going to be my year, my year when I appreciated myself more than anything else and learned about my innermost self.

This is the year when I accepted my past and learned to wake up in the morning and be happy the coming day.

This is the year when I looked into the moment and made the most of it.

This is the year when I fought a battle and lost but this is the year when acceptance was greater than defeat.

After all, this is the year I will be grateful for, even though it sounds like madness.
