Most times, happy endings are what keeps people motivated to go through a book or a movie and so I’ve decided to do a recap starting with my sorrows.
I’ve always been a do not share person mostly because I feel whatever I’m going through is less compared to others, I’ve felt like that my whole life and it was way worse when I was younger but recently I’ve been made to understand that every sorrow is sorrow, every tragedy is tragedy, it shouldn’t be weighed or compared.
My year didn’t start fantastic cause I had breakout with my then closest humans, although I pushed through as always but the sense of loosing someone you thought would be in your life forever is quite heartbreaking. We were actually inseparable the few years we had known each other, you couldn’t see us without ourselves, we did literally everything together but I guess the bond was enough to prevent the fall out.
Moving on, one of my closest friend experience a life trauma, she went through something I can’t imagine myself in, I was hurt watching her cry, watching her question herself, watching her loose a piece of herself, also watching her get heartbroken by the people she called her friends . That period was one of my saddest, I blamed myself at some point because I felt I could have prevented it. I’ve never been good at comforting so I felt like or rather I still feel like I wasn’t there for her, I could have done more. But thankfully she’s healing and gradually overcoming her trials.
This year I was phoneless, lol it doesn’t sound that sorrow I know, but believe me it was for someone living in our time without a phone. My old phone got bad without any signs, one faithful morning it just decided to not come on. The situation almost messed up my entire final year in school because all of a sudden I needed to add an unplanned expenses to my already choking list of expenses. Money was really hard to come by, I had to sacrifice my food and wants to get my needs. It was tough for a long while but I scaled through.
During my final year in school, I got frustrated because of a project. I felt confused and depressed at some point because I believed I wasn’t moving forward, I thought I wouldn’t be able to meet up and finish up with my colleagues.
And now for my happy ending, this year I grew, I grew emotionally, spiritually, physically, financially and mentally.
This year I went on a trip with my friends. After years of plan we finally did it and it was a fun, memorable experience.
This year guys I graduated from university. I’m literally still screaming, I did it, I legit did it. I’m forever grateful to God, my family and friends. I bagged a bachelors degree in mass communication.
I’m currently serving my country and along the line I’ve gotten a good paying job although it’s part of the service. But it’s a good start for my growth and career.
I sincerely pray and hope that this coming year will be so much better.
