I can say without a doubt that 2017 and 2018 are the most challenging years I have experienced in my entire life. There have been life-altering, attitude changing, faith testing events these past two years that have forced me to evaluate who I am, what I believe in, and how I think.
The bottom line is I'm learning. Learning to fight, to persevere, to be humble, and to break the mold I've conveniently placed myself in. It has not been easy. It has been frustrating. I've seriously considered doing things my younger self would never have done. At the same time, I've also matured and become a much better person than I was.
There are times that I have come close to reverting to my old attitude. And I fight myself, I convince myself I'm better than I was. It is challenging, but I honestly hope to survive this and become better because of this.
Out.
