Dear 2016,
You were my “Purpose-Propelling Gem”. It is safe to say, that while you were not perfect, the ride was truly MORE than worth it.
As I take the time to view you in a glass, I can see that my cup has runneth over in discovery, achievement, purpose, passion, and love. All of the pouring out and filling up that I experienced in these past 365 days was in direct preparation for my overflow. I can feel the greatness radiating from what is to come in 2017, so Thank You 2016. I see it, I believe it, I claim it, and now I surely expect it.
To my readers, I pray the same is true for you too. May you be able to view 2016 with eyes that are willing to see past the imperfection and uncover the gems that you were able to gain along the way. Remember, it is either a blessing or a lesson. Both, blessings & lessons, have the power to impact us positively depending on how we choose to view them, use them, and grow from them. In 2017, may we believe hard and work even harder towards our goals, taking each triumph AND setback as a SETUP for greatness.
Welp, that’s all for this year folks. Thank you all for joining me on this ride and helping to make it more than worthwhile. 2016, here is my kiss “goodbye”. You really did do your thang, girl.
Lots of Love & Sunshine,
Shanice ❤️
