So as 2016 is quickly approaching, I've been fairly reflective this week! What a year it's been!! So many reasons to be happy so many reasons to have chucked the towel in and walked/run away!
Highlight of the year.... Becoming a gym owner!! And learning where inner peace comes from!!! Anyone who followed me on that journey knows how many hurdles I had to get over to get the gym open! I thought come June when we opened that was it for hoops and hurdles but oh how wrong I was! Then the DVTs hit... And feeling very sorry for myself, being completely immobile and losing touch with the gym, again it was another hard four months where crutches became friends, injections became a daily occurrence and exercise was nowhere to be seen! Again I didn't think it could get much worse! And again I was proven wrong! This year, Ive had the incredible opportunity working with the Fiji boys at the RWC, then had the pleasure of working at the World Wheelchair Rugby Challenge, I've met some incredible people along the way who've become good friends and I've become a semi finalist for a business award! It's been a rollercoaster year of emotions!! I lost friends, I became single (apparently guys can't handle the Big C!), my confidence hit rock bottom (becoming bald isn't exactly a great look!) ..... But the Big C has taught me so much these last two months!! F*@# you Cancer, you stand no chance, Ive done the rest of this flipping year, there's no way you're gonna beat me down that easily! It's just another hurdle and there's so many things in 2016 to look forward to, Rio for instance!! So all in all as much as this year is finishing with the biggest hardest shittiest battle I've ever had to face, I'm sure as hell stronger now than I've ever been! And that can only be increased when I become a survivor next year, I hope!! WonderWoman didn't become strong from lifting weights, she became strong from being knocked down and getting back up again! So here I am standing tall still with the smile on my face, standing proud of everything I've achieved this year and everything to come in 2016! And I certainlycouldnt have done this year without my amazing family, friends and staff guys! You lot rock! As the famous quote says... You never know how strong you are until being strong is your only choice.... Well 2015 has certainly proven that one!! And as one of my friends text me the other day.... A strong woman is one who smiles in the morning like she wasn't crying the night before.... There certainly have been tears along the way this year, but the smile is still going strong :) Here's to 2016 and becoming a survivor! ️Happy New Year guys and girls! Xxx
