I've never so many new people come in to my life as during this last year. So many new friends. So many people that have come to mean so much to me in different ways. I've also never had so many people walking out of my life as during this last year.
My mum is a very wise woman. Sometimes it's scaring how wise, or how insightful. Anyway. My mum said to me the other week that it's all connected. Sure I've never had so much pain and tears as this last year, but neither so much joy and happiness. You can't have one without the other. So the question is would I prefer a life without all this? Without the pain and sorrow but then also without the happiness. No way! Not me! That kind of life sounds extremely plain and boring to me. You have to risk to gain and you have to experience defeat to win. I'd rather cry of both happiness and sadness instead of not at all.
So in the end I'm grateful. For everything and everyone in my life.
