Two more days? That’s what I asked myself before I started
summing up 2014 in my head. I felt really negative toward it because of the
misfortunes and circumstances that I came across this year. However, I went
through good things as well; things that I refused to see the good in them
until they’re gone away. Well, I’m not here to make you think about your new
year’s resolution or regret the ones that you hadn’t ticked off your list but
I’m here to let you think about yourself, your ability to achieve things
because I believe that each one of us is destined to achieve great things.
First, to the ones who are going to end this year with a
heavy broken heart. There is nothing worse than being disappointed by the one
whom you gifted your heart to, but I know how does it feel. It’s like you
pulled out your emotions and exposed them nakedly, shamelessly in front that person
and too bad this person was not the suitable home that can keep your heart and
emotions safe and sound but instead they kicked them out on the front yard that
left you there, hoping to break you. But here’s the good part, you’re not
broken, maybe you stumbled and maybe you’re bent. Disappointments are not
pretty but the pretty part of them is that they teach you a lot about yourself
and test how much your heart can take. So, this is your chance to leave this
“heart break” behind you and start with a fresh new one, a heart that is
willing to love and care because that’s how good your heart is.
Second, to the ones with untamed dreams. I bet there are lot
of people who pointed at you and said, “keep on dreaming” well you turn back to
them and say, “sure, that’s how I live” because if your heart and mind don’t
have the ability to wish and dream big then they might be dead because dreams
are the reasons why I wake up every single day. Dreams are the oxygen that
motivates you to take this life further and test your patience. Take those
dreams with you and feed them with your stubbornness and power of will.
Finally, to the ones I love. You see I thought that 2014 is
worse than 2013 that was worse than 2012 but to be honest, none of them was
worse than another. They are just numbers that I blamed to make myself better
about bad days. So my health isn’t helping me, my skin sucks and my grades are
pretty much the same thing but I’ve gained you, your support, your love and
since I’ve got this, then this upcoming number better bring it on because love
and motivation is what got me through hard times and I believe it’ll get me
through 2015 as well.
If I sum up 2014 in
three words, I can say: Blessed with
love.
What are your three words?

Hope and Love
