Array ( [sid] => 36826 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Another Year Behind Me [time] => 2004-02-29 20:35:45 [hometext] => this was written on January 1, 2000 when I was 15. I thought I was so wise in my own eyes- I was truly (and still am) a mere babe! [bodytext] => Another year behind me
Oh, there is so much I learned
About me, about wisdom, about life
Many things happened
Maybe more than I wish
But, in the end, I see
It was all good
Even the bad
Because I had to go through what I did
to be who I am now.
And I know
I will continue to live, to learn, to grow
as the years pass.
I should never be bitter
For what happens to me
Because it happens for a reason
And I should remain strong
I always have
And take it in stride
Rely on God
Knowing that it will end sometime
And, in the long run,
Make me better.

Problems are but an opportunity to grow. To become stronger.
Keep strong.
Take care.
