    i was going to do this big review of 2007, break it down month by month, but it just seems too overwhelming. alot of crap happened this year. a whole lot of crap. so then i was going to do the top five things i learned this year, but really, i can boil it down to one.

    the only person that can hold you back is yourself.

    and that pretty much applied to everything that happened to me this year. to passing my classes, getting dismissed to my program, filing an appeal, earning my masters, losing 130 pounds (and 10 dress sizes!), singing more solos, putting myself out there, to my current work situation. anything is possible and if it doesn’t work one way, try another way. i know this time last year, i thought life was great. in the middle of the year, i was in despair. but now, on the cusp of 2008, i know God holds so many things for me… the sky is the limit. i did things in 2007 that i thought i would never be able to do, i learned more about myself than i thought i would never learn. i also remembered that the trials that we’re put through help us to grow stronger, so i’m grateful for those too.

    so thank you 2007 for making me better than i thought i could be.
