It has been the worst year of my life. Full stop. No question. But out of it came a shining light that has held me together in my darkest moments. A light that is kind and empathetic, loving and accepting, understanding and forgiving. Without that light, I don't know what condition I'd be in right now. I'm so glad this year is almost over, but more than that, I'm glad to know that the light that has held me together will lead our way into a new and (hopefully) better year.
Whatever pain may come - and I know it will come - my world isn't completely dark anymore. And for that, I can only be grateful.
