But these numbers certainly can't capture what was this year was. It's interesting to compare my "Year According to Facebook Statuses" post to this one. I think I try really hard to be positive on Facebook, and try to not post very many "downer" statuses. And I guess I kind of do the same things with my blog sometimes...try to focus on the happier things, and gloss over some of the harder things. My journal is where I really record more of the bad. On this blog (and on this blog post), it's probably hard to tell how hard this year was (though the 10 blessings I received could be an indication of that). But it was a really crazy year, full of things that I never would have expected, both good and bad. I do have many fond memories of 2014, but also lots that I am ready to leave behind. I am very interested to see what 2015 brings.
