A Recap Of 2020 & 2021

Dear 2020 & 2021,

I thought you will be new years for fresh starts but that wasn't the case. I was going through a few mental challenges that had me depressed and down for months. I've lost and distance myself away from friends and close associates due to their own selfish and dishonest reasons. I even lost a few old classmates from my old school that I still can't believe is gone. But I know that they are in a better place now. After everything I was going through for almost 2 years already, I still came out happy and full of peace. I know that I still have a long way to go but looking back on the mistakes I made and learning from them, I achieved those mistakes by keeping myself busy with writing and school. Making me forget things and people that were the least of my worries. Keeping negative energy away that only kept me at my lowest.

I didn't pick myself back up until I started my passion for writing. Writing was the only thing that made me feel like I was in heaven. It was more like a meditation than a hobby. At first I tried to put my feelings and emotions on paper but that wasn't helping. So I tried a different approach. I tried a website called (Vocal Media). And after doing a total of five stories so far I became obsessed with it. In the beginning, it was for the money to help support my family but when I started getting views, my whole perspective changed over the next couple of days. Every since those views, I was finally getting the motivation to continue. The people who supported me and still is, thank you for being there and letting me know that you are proud of me and my accomplishments.

Being a writer was something I dreamed about and will always be a dream that I will accomplish. I'm still struggling with family issues but as long as I keep my mental state at a positive rate, I will be fine. Both 2020 and 2021 has taught me so much but still went through storms to learn from them. I am thankful to make it to my senior year of high school I may be having some trouble with completing everything but I know I will get through it some way some how. Next year I am planing to graduate, but for now I'm just keeping fingers crossed. Being a virtual student isn't always easy but the learning is a little bit simple though, sometimes.

In the new year I hope there will be new beginnings and new starts. This new start will come with so much good energy and beautiful goals that are coming true. This is my resolution to both years. To be honest about everything overall, has made me feel like weight has been lifted up from my shoulders. Taking so much caused a lot of stress and frustration in the beginning and I wasn't getting no where with that type of energy. Sleep is always the key to me letting go of all the things that keeps me on edge. Always have some time to yourself no matter what because it's okay to take breaths and time off to focus on your mental stability. At first I couldn't think on what to write when it to the new year greetings but as always I wrote it into a letter than a message. Happy New Years to Vocal and Everyone who love writing.

- Goodbye 2020 & 2021
