This year has really been one hell of a ride. I know the fun thing to do these days is bash on 2016 and all of the bad that happened, but I find it hard to categorize the year as a whole as "good" or "bad". For me, this year has been a mixed bag. Lots of ups, downs, and everything in between. Regardless of anything else, I am happy with the progress I have made in all areas of my life, but I know it is still just a stepping stone towards the individual I am continually striving to become.
