Year in Review.

“Every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end.” – Seneca

2018 has been a very exciting and busy year both professionally and personally, and as with any other year, it had its ups and downs. What I learned though, was that I have to preserve, not give up, and continuously remind myself that not everything can always work out, so it’s best to remain positive. Losing my philosophy course was a huge blow, but there are so many other things that happened in my life that can be celebrated. For one, I was able to travel serveral times throughout the year. From Toronto, to the beaches of Miami, to a school trip to Montreal, to the amazing adventure we had in Portugal, I am so fortunate to have these incredible experiences. I also was able to see my students gain strength and compete in powerlifting competitions, which was very rewarding. I’ve also become a little more introspective about social media’s role in my life. 2018 was a year that reminded me who I am and it ultimately allowed me to be more confident in myself.

What will 2019 bring? That remains a mystery. But for now, I hope that I will continue to remind myself the importance of self love, and to share happiness with those around me. As for the blog, I’m going to focus more on philosophy and my writing, with a dash of fashion. I think this change is best for me, as it will truly reflect my individuality and thoughts. New year, but not an entirely new me!

Happy New Year to all my readers! Cheers!
