Thank You 2024
Tough but good
2024 was the year!
The year I rediscovered my courage,
Found appreciation for my flaws,
Made the hard decisions,
And followed through.
2024 was the year I decided to live again,
When I finally dragged myself from the pits of hell,
To feel the sunlight upon my skin once more,
To discover that I had healed from that long ago snake-bite,
And I could come out from behind that protective shield.
2024 was the year that gave me the strength to follow my dreams,
To survive my fears, to laugh in the face of self-sabotage,
To understand that I lay broken all these years, but no longer,
I discovered that there was more to me than survival mode,
And I rebuilt my self-reliance.
2024 was the year I said goodbye to some who left when I needed them,
Enabling me to learn to live without them, to survive the harshest goodbyes,
Gifting me with the strength to follow dreams, that although painful to unpack, were worth the struggle,
Highlighting the blessings these struggles were to become,
Leaving me emotionally self-sufficient.
