2017 2017 2017

I am so excited for the new blessings that are going to come my way in 2017. I can say that 2016 was a tough year for me, but I manage to survive by the Grace of God. I had to deal with so many things that I wasn't ready to deal with mentally. God helped me so much during this crazy time in my life. Anxiety and Depression are very real and had me at my lowest from the weight gain to not loving myself like I should have been. I am thankful for the experiences because it showed me that I could overcome anything with God in my corner. I went through phases of dealing with toxic people in my life and dealing with my ex-boyfriend who was no good for me. I came to a point in my life where I depended on other people to make me happy. I just wasn't content with anything around me. I was distancing myself from friends that I just felt weren't there for me. I just needed a change, so I isolated myself and got myself together. During this time, I decided to rededicate my life to Christ on March 30th, 2016 and I got baptized as well. I let go of all the things and people who weren't right for me, and I just wanted to make better decisions for my life. So I ask God to reveal those who weren't in my corner and remove them from my life, and I didn't think it would be the people I considered to be close to me. However, moving forward going into 2017 I am making it my business to protect my peace and protecting my space. I am speaking up for myself and taking care of Sierra. I've been working hard on my weight loss, and I've lost 32 pounds. I am falling in love with myself every day. I am refocusing on the positive things in my life and blocking all negativity. The moment I feel someone being negative or if someone just loves to talk about me or the "OLD" me. I just remove myself because I don't need that type of energy around me in 2017. I am so thankful God allowed me to be here another year and I am ready to grow closer to him, and I can't wait to see what I have in store for 2017. I believe this is my year because I've worked so hard to become a better person and just make myself happy. I am ready to help others and be a light to others. I will say that my life isn't perfect, but I am working on myself every day. Each day God WAKES me up he's giving me a chance to get it right. SO HERE'S TO A BLESSED YEAR .... 2017 Let's GET IT !!!!!!!
