Hold on and trust that daybreak is up ahead.

“Sometimes things can be going really well and you can be really happy and think that nothing could go wrong. And then something will and it feels like the worst thing in the world, and that one thing will ruin your entire months worth of progress. Don’t let that one thing ruin what you have worked towards no matter how much it hurts. Keep moving forward, always.”
It's been quite awhile since I had some time to myself. Been mainly preoccupied with work, and I was so glad when I finally got some time to spend alone. Thought about many things as usual, and perhaps I thought too much about some things I shouldn't have.
I was thinking back about 2014, to see what I can do better as an individual in 2015. I've goals and ambitions that I want to fulfill for the year, but am I getting closer or further away from it? Everything feels so uncertain now, but I will still continue to work hard in my own way, and trust in Him to move forward.
From the day I decided to go to a junior college, the direction of my life changed a lot. I learned that I need to be a mature-thinking young adult. I needed to accept the fact I'll need to sacrifice a lot of things, go through a lot of obstacles, and laugh through it no matter how bad things will get. Till today, I never regretted any of the major decisions I made during that 2 years. Yes, occasionally, I'll think of the "what ifs".. What if I didn't choose the jc path? What if I studied harder when I was younger? What if I didn't let go of some things? How different would my life be right now (then)? But when I get back to reality from the 1001 "what ifs" in my mind, I realised that there were so many reasons why I did so at that point in time. Also, life does not allow room for "what ifs", it's either a this or that. At that point in time, I felt that it was the best decision to make, so I should not regret.
Also, I realised how my perspective of things changed a lot at the end of the year. I used to be so caught up with so many things, till I forgotten to slow down and appreciate the simple joys of life. I really hated how I was like then, and had regrets in this aspect. I really hope I'll learn from the lesson in 2014.
I know He will guide me through this year, by making me into a better person holistically, and also making me stronger both physically and mentally. I just need to work hard in my own ways, trust and walk with Him for the coming year. Hoping for nothing but better things for the year ahead. :-)
