2013 has proven to be full of surprises so far. Challenging. Full of choices. Ever-changing. And filled with blessings (some were in disguise).
I wouldn't say that I have come very far, because I didn't. But I feel proud of myself when I know that I have done things that I never had the guts to do in the past.
In January, I was depressed. Work, relationship, health. I was going through rough times.
In February, I was dumped by my longtime boyfriend (now obviously an unimportant ex) of four years for no apparent reason. I also had to give up one of my beloved doggies, Alffy, because of the break up.
In March, I celebrated my birthday, with lovely people. My awesome friends and family. I feel truly blessed in March. Things took a turn for the better. I also started driving! Yes, I can drive now, but still not very well. Have to drive more often. Hehehehe.
In April, I visited Tokyo, Japan! Along with my sister and our friend, we went on an all-single-girls trip. It was also the place I made a Japanese friend, Ryoji-san. April also was the month that something really good happened. My BFF started going after me, and yes, I am seeing him now.
In May, I FINALLY got the job I have always wanted. I got a promotion and that was probably the highlight of May. :D I also started going to church, which has indeed helped a lot in my well-being and in keeping me positive about myself and my life.
And now June, I fully assume the new role as a Subeditor. I have to go through the review process of six months and the probationary period again. I hope and pray for the best, that I will do well and successfully get off review before the six months end.
All-in-all, I just want to say that I am grateful, to have beautiful and supportive people in my life. From friends to family, from housemates to colleagues. Everyone has been nothing but kind to me, guiding me and lending me a helping hand when I need them.
I don't know what I am if I am not a blessed soul.
Contentment is indeed the source of long-term happiness.

Stumbled upon this post and i have to give you a round of applause for standing up stronger than before after your rough period.
It's never easy standing up when you had a bad fall, it's almost like being punched severely in the stomach and just waiting for the pain to whisk away before standing right back up. Maybe not the right figure of speech but heck, it's true :)
You are doing great Eunice. Keep it up and you will be stronger than ever before. In every situation, just know that men fails you but God never. You can live without men but you can't live without God :)
