This has been a difficult year for many of us. And although very good things can come from adversities, it's not easy to keep our minds anchored in expectation of the good to come. For me, seeing difficulties as "growing pains" provides me with hope....the "vitamin" of life.
You can write your story any way you want to, but you'll have more fun if you make it into a comedy rather than a tragedy. If that's a bit too much of a stretch, consider this. Whatever your story is, it's not the end! Only the calendar year is ending....nothing else. If it has not been the best year, don't stop your story now.
