You've been such a huge roller coaster ride.
You brought me love,
Thrilling me and making me feel so lucky in every way.
Then you took it away,
Hurting me, and leaving me emotionally drained.
Unhappy and wanting to give up on everything and running away.
You nearly made me crumble into pieces.
Then you knocked some sense into me,
Made me stand up and move on with my life.
You taught me lessons, that no teacher could teach.
Helped me grow, so that I'm no longer the person I used to be.
You pushed me beyond what I thought were my limitations,
And showed me that my capabilities lay far beyond what I thought they were.
You brought me such amazing people, that I never thought I'd ever meet.
Who'd support me, love me, and believe in me,
Possibly even more than I've ever loved or believed in myself.
You gave me opportunities beyond my imagination.
Some of which, I screwed up,
Some of which, I succeeded.
It's surprising how much one year could bring me.
It's even more surprising how much it would change me.
2010, I don't really know how I feel about you.
I am grateful, and bitter at the very same time.
Grateful for the good,
Bitter for the bad.
Perhaps it really is time to let go of the bitterness,
To move on in the next year, I think.
I will not, however, force it.
Because the more I do, the worse I'd feel.
So I'm gonna take my time.
I stand now on the cusp of my life,
Where a new chapter is about to begin.
I have the job that I set my mind to achieve.
I have the salary beyond my expectations.
I have people beside me, believing in me, and supporting me in every way they can.
2010, it seems too soon to say goodbye now.
My wish is that this goodbye brings the start of something great.
So goodbye, 2010,
And hello, 2011.
I don't know what you'll bring me,
But I'm sure it won't break me.
