Reflection
Well 2014 was pretty much focused on my engagement and wedding. It was a wonderful time and I loved (almost) all of it. 2015 will obviously be focussed on something else. I'm not sure what yet, but I have high hopes that it will be just as good of a year. I hope that I will continue to focus on my marriage, my job, and my health and that the things that disappointed me this year will become accomplishments next year.
