2019 - A Year in Review

2019, the end of a decade. The year began with a promise. A promise to a magnificent woman that I would end the grueling, yearlong distance between us. That against all odds, and all the doubters, we would be together. In the spring of the year, we exchanged our vows. After decades of looking for a family, I finally found them. I finally came home.

I learned the depth of human cruelty goes deeper then I could imagine. I witnessed my coworkers mock and ridicule a war veteran without any remorse or feeling.

In the summer, our little family a little bigger when we rescued a pair of kittens.

I watched the war for the Iron Throne come to a fiery end. I endured the Longest Night.

I embraced who I am, my successes & faults.

I continued down the winding & bumpy road in my pursuit of becoming an author.

A little blue bird, who could only speak 140 characters at a time, guided me to join its flock.

I registered to vote so that my voice, no matter how little, could be heard.

2019 was a year of triumphs and defeats but it will forever be remembered for me as the year when I married my soulmate. The year I found what I have spent my whole life looking for.
