24. Not a happy moment, but I had to put my Uncle on my 2017 post, I would feel guilt if I didn’t include him in my post, he was part of it and he’s family and he loved my sis and I, we were his fav’s and always was happy to make bomb ass steaks for my twin sister and I!!! I miss his steaks, so juicy and so good, he always cooked with his heart, he’s greatly missed, he’s the only uncle were I felt safe in his presence ;( He was a very fine and good man, very giving man, there is no other man like him these days, and it’s unfortunate 😢 RIP Misag 😢 💔
That was my 2017, there were days, months and other moments of sadness, depression, confusion, heartaches, anger, feeling lost, feeling unsure, realizing things through sad times, but I don’t know, those days passed by, and I’m still here, still fighting for my dreams and what not. It helps to have happy moments in life when you’re going through sadness and negativity, it helps, you get the good with the bad, ya know? That's just life, let's just hope there will be more good than bad! 😌
My 2017 was ok, the 2nd half was MUCH better, but I’m not satisfied, I want more good things to happen, mainly fashion career wise. So yeah, Goodbye 2017!!!
