| It may be quite early for everyone to start making their reflections of this year that is about to succumb to the past, but I feel the need to make a prologue.
This year I have learned many things. I have gotten my heart broken. I have seen a family finally tear apart. and I have witnessed a life being cut short in a matter of weeks. Horrid? Yes.
But you never know where you are going until you know where you came from. So with that said I have learned many lessons. Yet there are still some lessons that I am learning (as always).
My mother always said, "when people show you who they are, believe them." An the time for making excuses for other people has to stop.
Maybe I have forgotten what my value is worth, or I have put aside the things that are the most important to me...
whatever it may be...I am still learning. and you know what? This year, I am kind of considering myself lucky! Next year not only will be the start of a new year but I will be officially out of my teens. If that means anything! Also it still feels somewhat new because my birthday is at the beginning of the year...somewhat!
So until next time, when I decided to officially list the highs and lows of 2009, I leave you with this.
What was biggest lesson you learned this year, and how did it help you to grow? And just exactly how close are you to finding pure happiness?

| I, and I'm sure you have too, heard the saying "Nothing Lasts Forever" and I believe that is completely true because it is apart of live. We live and then we die. However it is said that love lasts forever. But does it really?
Make no mistake about it, we are human. Things are always constantly changing. As the world changes we change as well. We change everyday. So is there any truth to the saying "The more things change, the more things stay the same". Can it be applied to love?
Taylor Swift sung that"people are people and sometimes we change our minds." So when our minds and sometimes hearts change is it time to let go? I know I am all over the place with this but there is so much I wanna know.
I am not sure yet but I think that I am coming to the conclusion that I never want to get married. I would have never dreamed about saying this a month or two ago but now it seems that it is all coming in kind of clear. Its obvious that things are not the same today and they were yesterday or thousands of years ago. But still "the more things change, the more things stay the same." Men are always going to be men and women are always going to be women. But how can you tell the difference between someones personality and their nature?
So when it comes to love, what is the difference

| Love is beautiful.
Love doesn't walk away, people do
"I'm at this point in my life where I'm just daring someone to push me off a cliff just to see if I'm strong enough to F L Y."
Crying doesn't indicate that you are weak. Since birth, it has always been a sign that you are alive.
no one has ever hand-written me a love letter.

| Barack Obama continues to make mile-stone after mile-stone. From being president of the Harvard Review to president to the United States of America to Nobel Peace Prize winner, Obama is defiantly paving the way for not only African-Americans but for ALL minorities.
If Dr. King were alive today, he would be beyond proud. And those who would share his joy would be Rosa Parks, Medgar Evers, Malcolm X, W.E.B. DuBois, Coretta Scott King etc.
I am truly proud of President Obama and all his accomplishments. Because of him, I still believe that anything is possible.
Congratulations!
