I agree that 2010 was by far one of the worse (if not the worst) year. My dad almost died from heart failure. Luckily, he got a heart transplant a few months ago and is slowly, but surely, recovering. Admist all of it, I lost my best friend's friendship because I had to pull out of her wedding as maid of honor due to supporting my family. She didn't understand why I had to completely be at my dad's side, so she abruptly ended our 11 year friendship. I ate my emotions away to deal with the stress and pain.
It's the new year. Now that dad is doing better, I can start focusing on myself again and start losing the 25lbs of emotional weight I've gained in just 2010 alone!
Here's hoping 2011 is indeed a much better year for all of us!
