Holla with me if you're still in shock cause 2016 is ending. Just a heads up, this is gonna be more of a personal post where I share how I feel (or rather felt) about 2016, and i'm not very sure how long this will take but I'm rather determined to list it all down baby. BUT! Before I begin on my reflections of 2K16, I've uploaded an Everyday Makeup Routine video up on my channel and I hope you'll enjoy watching it! I'll put the link down below so that it'll be easier for ya! If you liked the video as much as I enjoyed making it, don't forget to Subscribe to my channel, Like my video and Share with your friends! I'd like to thank each and every one of you in advance for supporting my new channel!
OKAY now shall we get started? I've learnt quite a number of things in these 365 days and I can truly say that I've grown alot from the things I've learnt. 1. The Art Of Learning To Let Go. I was a very naive girl back then and I got into a relationship at such a young age, not knowing much about love and stuff. I let my Ex control me and I didn't want to make such a huge fuss about it so I blindly complied. It came down to a point where I couldn't take it but I couldn't let go because I was staying for the relationship itself. As time went by, I felt more unhappy and of course there were more aspects in the relationship I wasn't happy with but this was the major one. And one fine day, I told myself: "Enough is enough. It's time." I just got out of that 4-year relationship I was having and I wasn't the least sad about it. Don't think of me as a cold-hearted person, just cause I chose to be selfish. If you didn't had your freedom for 4 years, you'll understand me. And I guess it's okay to be selfish. I've learned it's okay to put yourself before others because you can't love anyone else if you don't love yourself first. 2. Getting Rid Of Toxic People Now this year truly opened my eyes as to who has been my genuine friend and who isn't. I found out about how a very old friend of mine turned out to be a back-stabbing friend who spills everything to another group of my friends. I have not confronted this 'friend' yet but i'm waiting for the right time. I was shocked and hurt when I learnt about this. But I've learnt to accept it. Because I now believe that even your closest BFF can turn her back against you and shit happens. But hey, the world ain't over and life goes on. 3. Learning To Be Open-minded I know as Hoomans (Humans) we are judgemental beings. It's not a very healthy way of life to judge others before getting to know them. I admit myself that I do judge people but hey everyone does, and I'm kicking my bad habit of doing so. Being open-minded promotes positive thinking and it's something I've been practicing for a lil bit. 4. Cherish The People Around You This factor includes your close friends that has been there for you in rough times and you'll definitely know who these people are. Apart from your friends, take some time to spend with your family. They're more precious than anything else in the whole world. It's important to treasure them before it's too late aye. 5. LOVE YOURSELF This is most probably the most important out of the 5 aspects. I find that it's not easy to accept yourself as it is because I know everyone, girls and guys have at least one thing they dislike about themselves. I too, am quite insecure about a number of things about myself. But really though I still am and in the process of accepting me for who I am. It's really important to love yourself. Don't go around trying to please others or change yourself just to 'fit in', and that was what I used to do. Now looking back at it, I found myself looking EXTREMELY stupid:') I look up to this quote and honey, this applies to your relationship with your other half as well. "You're were't born to please anyone." When I meant that this includes your personal relationship, it means that you shouldn't change yourself just because your gf/bf doesn't like you doing a particular thing. Unless it's a bad habit he/she's trying to help you get rid of, unless it's gonna help you grow to become a better person, you shouldn't change you. "Be yourself. Everyone else is already taken." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So basically, this is my reflection on 2K16 and gurl it's definitely been a hell of a ride. I don't dig New Year Resolutions because I always end up forgetting what they are. I just find the areas I need to improve on and I'll work on it, I'm constantly growing and learning to accept things as they are. And I hope every one of you do too. I'd like to thank you for sticking with me and reading my posts, if you've been reading my blog ever since the start, I'm thankful for you. And if you're new, hey i'm thankful too :) Aye 2016, you've been a bitch but I'm thankful for everything, be it bad or good, you've put me through storms and rainbows but nonetheless you helped me grow. I hope 2K17 will be better than 2016 not only for me but for everyone. Whatever bad that happened in 2016, let it stay in that year. 2K17 is a fresh start, so be the better you okay? Thank you so much for reading, Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year y'all! xoxo,
