Goodbye.

2008.

What a year it has been.

For some reasons, it was the best year of my life. For other reasons, it wasn't.

But yet again, disbelief is staring right at my face as another year comes to an end. How could it have been so soon?

I've had so many ups and downs this year I lost count of them.
The number of times where hope seems lost and I feel like there's no point in trying anymore. But also the times where I know that despite everything, He is still there. Even when I doubt, even when I give up on myself, I don't know how He doesn't.
The Ups? One major thing was people. There are new people whom I've met this year for which I'm so grateful for. Thank You for putting them in my life. Things I never thought I'll do, things I never thought could or will happen to me did and caught me by surprise. Oh how I'll cherish those moments.

But I guess, i still have plenty more of growing up to do. They say we never stop learning. I need to learn to trust Him more. He deserves every bit of my trust but many a times I fail in that area.
"In whatever season you're in, it is the season to trust Him." I need to live by that.

In a nutshell, 2008 - I gained some. I lost some. But it is another year that I've been given. and thank You for this year. My ups, my downs.

Goodbye 2008.
