been a year ...

"Even though it seems like the universe has been against me all year, I believe things happen for some reason and learn from any situation with an open mind and heart. I will take on those challenges I faced (and I still face) to continue to create my life path. People will criticize and disagree with "Things along the way, and I appreciate all opinions ... but I learn in the process; aware of past mistakes but always focusing on how I can be better." 

"However, I wrote and deleted statements that I wanted to share with everyone over and over again in recent days, and I asked myself what is right to say or not, and even if I should feel the need to say it, but with the information we have my health is good and today I feel much better and it The most important."
