You pained me pretty bad but honestly still, thank you 2015.
You did not leave me unscathed but I swear, you made me stronger.
You taught me that being brave and taking risks are sometimes not worth it. But believe, I do not regret them. They are now lessons I had to learn the hard way.
You also taught me that there are fights I have to surrender and feelings I have to set aside. That there just comes a time that letting go is the only option. I've tried long enough, hard enough so please do not blame me.
Most importantly, you made me realize--not once but twice!--that above anyone else, it should be me. That my heart is fragile. That happiness is key. And that I matter.
And so for all the bad and the good, I am still grateful for you 2015.
As you end tonight, I will leave you with a smile.
Yours truly,
EUDEN VALDEZ
