What a beautiful decade which has come and will now go.
The years in which I grew mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
I was scarred then healed and destroyed but built up to a higher state of being.
What didn't occur this decade?
I witnessed the world struggle to simply be.
I felt barriers be put up amongst neighbors.
Although it seemed that the past couple of years tore us apart...
This year brought the genuine to my front door who are closer to me now rather than then.
And I hold onto those people maybe as much as I hold on to the past times we shared.
The decade holds time in which I will look back on.
And I will bring up this and that with the people I love...and those who were impacted by the times will agree with me that this decade will forever be "the good old days."
We will forever be in awe that we made it out alive.
Despite all the bad and horrific...
We made it out alive.
And we still somehow see and cherish the good of this decade.
That's just what nostalgia does.
I pay homage this year
To those who made me cry
The ones who explained that we all live to die.
I will never forget those who kissed me goodbye
Or the ones who lie.
Here is to a new year...
A new decade rather.
Cheers to a future of bliss
Of prosperity and blessings
And many many more memories.
May the following decade be as lavish as the 10s.
And may we make the most out of our roaring 20s.
Wishing everyone I know a wonderful new decade
And thanking everyone I know or have known for the countless memories and lessons...
