you spent most the year miserable, you shouldn't be down on yourself about it. You shouldn't feel like a failure. You succeeded when it comes to the most important thing. You survived.
Maybe you're shaking your head. Maybe you're rolling your eyes. Maybe you feel like that's a bullshit accomplishment. After all, you've probably heard that saying about how you don't want to exist, you want to really live. While that's true in a way, sometimes it's okay if simply existing is your goal. Sometimes, life is so difficult and your brain is so overwhelmed and your body is so tired that existing is enough. Existing is succeeding.
You might feel like you aren't strong enough to do those things, but you are, because you were strong enough to survive this last year. If you were able to do that, you can do anything. Stop selling yourself short. Stop doubting your potential. Stop expecting tomorrow to be miserable simply because yesterday was miserable. Allow yourself to act like an optimist for a change. Allow yourself to love yourself.
Don't feel like your year, was a complete waste because even if you didn't accomplish everything you set out to do, you still managed to accomplish the most beautiful thing of all. You made it until today. You endured your weakest moments, your toughest tragedies, your most mountainous insecurities. You survived another 365 days. And you should be proud of yourself for how much strength that took.
