I can't begin to express the joy I feel knowing there will be no 2015.
It has been an eventful year and mostly educational, the lessons I've learned so far are too valuable to forget.

I've been learning how to survive on my own ever since my mother passed away in 2012, and learning who I am and how to love myself in 2013, and in 2014 I've learned to forgive and accept myself and forget the past.
Then came 2015 to fully teach me how to live and do all the things I listed above.

Self-Acceptance
I've always accepted who I am, my past, my flaws and my failures BUT it haunted me silently, as if I never really accepted them just said that I did.
Then I stood in front of my mirror looking at god's creation seeing nothing wrong, seeing nothing less than others around me rather more than anyone can ever dream of.

Self-Love
When you accept, you love.
And I love every little detail about who I am, even the not so good sides of me, I love them cause I'm worth being loved, and no one can love me as much as I love myself.
plus... when you say to other "I love that I'm..... or I love this thing about myself" you'll finally know it for certain.

Stop Surviving - Start Living
How many of us are only trying to survive life, not aware that life is not a struggle but a moment to live in... a moment to get lost in.
Life, is truly an awful thing, but once you love and accept yourself you'll realize it's an awful thing not to live every second of it and enjoy it.
With the pain and the tears, there will be always a remedy, there will always be a rainbow, rich or poor, life is not measured in dollar signs but in happy times.

True Love Exist - But Happy Endings are ONLY in Fairytales
We read, hear and watch movies about true love, the kind of love you think you're incapable of feeling, the unshaken emotions you feel towards someone not necessary showing it, just feeling it, knowing it's there.
The kind of love this world can't understand, a kind of love that can live for years waiting for a second chance, then.... you learn how to stop feeling it, learn how to let it go, after sometime, waiting will become a waste of time.

All Wounds Heal - Some Leave a Scar
It's all fair in Love and War for love is truly a battle between your heart and mind. A war against this world.
So what doesn't heal completely... wear it as a battle scare across your heart, and a medal of honour in front of the world.
Win or Lose... you "survived" it.

It's Okay to Try Again
In love and in Life, it's okay to try again!
Trying to get another chance in love, trying to get another job, trying to connect with old friends, trying to make a real change in life, trying to rebirth an old dream of yours.
It's Okay!

Priories are There for a Reason
Knowing what comes first, second, third, last and what's not on the list WILL make life easier.
For once... decisions are easy to make.
For once... I never have regrets.

Good Friends are a Treasure
They truly are, having "good" friends is a bliss...
Complete strangers who happen to care for you as much as you care for them, as if they're family. You share good/bad moments together, laugh and cry together, go out and see the world together, bring good vibes and inside jokes to any place you go...
Going the extra mile for each other, they are truly a treasure.

Family is Not Everything
Not all of us are blessed with good family members, I'm one of those people.
And I've learned that just because we share DNA it doesn't mean we share anything else other than a test result.

Work because You Want To - Not because You Have To
Money is a way to live not a need you live to meet, work in something you like, go to work cause you want to, don't let anyone disrespect you, believe in your skills, know you can give what no one else can, work to make a difference and make a change.

Only Remember what Makes you Smile
We all have bad memories, but those are only experiences we learned from, good memories are there to makes us smile and keep on remembering.
Like the first time it rained, the time you heard a good news about someone you care about,,, just smile!

If you Forgot what you Learned - Learn it Again
Humans are created to forget, so if you fall for the same mistake it means you didn't really learn the first or second time, and it's completely fine, we don't all learn at the same rate, some have to repeat.

Don't Wait for Change - Be The Change
You don't like your hair, change it.
You don't like that trait in you, change it.
You don't want that person in your life, tell them.
You hate your job, look for another.
- Don't wait for it to happen, Make It Happen!

Find your Own Personal God
Find the god you want, not the god they want you to worship, respect religion just know... we are all creations of god, he makes no mistakes, if you're different and feel kicked out of his mercy it's a lie.
He Longs to us, just as much as we Long to him.
Believe nothing else.
