It’s the time of the year again when we look back and reflect over everything we’ve done in the past 12 months. Surely, there were a few ups and downs. You could have ended a relationship, but started a new career. Or, you could have even gone on a life-changing vacation and started to relocate. Whatever it is that you did this year, we want you to remember it was you who went through it all. You were there for yourself during times of sadness, desperation, and grief. Yet, you were strong enough to smile and face another day.
