“Before I die, I want to live”

As I walked around on this cold Christmas day night, I thought back to these words. These words I will always remember and Katie who spoke them.
I thought back to this past year. Was I living life to everything that I wanted it to be? The memories of this year came rushing back in. It was a great year. There are so many moments that I hope to always remember but what I will remember most are the people.
As I thought about the people who came, left and continued to stay in my life, I realized one thing. It has been the people in my life that I truely cherish. Without them, those pieces of time wouldn’t be the same. They help make and shape the person who I am today.
I will continue to make new friends and say goodbye to some as time progresses. I do hope that the ones I do say goodbye to, they remember that they will always have a place within me and are welcome back.
As I think to what this new year will bring, I hope that it is as great as this past year has been. I will walk down the path of taking chances and enjoying everything that life brings to me.
