2016 was the year for the bold! Not only did the first woman get nominated for president, but we had hit hundreds of milestones that we never thought would be possible.

In 2016, we learned to think differently against all the obstacles set before us. No matter what your parents or friends think, you have every right to think, act and speak differently. During this election, we learned that even though our parents believe in one way does not mean we have to agree. That #ImWithHer does not mean #ImAgainstGod and “Make America Great Again” doesn’t mean “Die, Women Die.” We learned to think for ourselves with the brain God gave us. At the same time, we learned to trust in God and all the plans he has before us even though we can’t see them. That we shouldn’t blame God for the misfortunes in life. Sometimes, God puts us in situations to test ourselves – to see where we stand in the midst of trouble.

We learned to stand for ourselves and forget about what other people tell us. If 2016 wasn't your year, don't worry about it. There's always 2017, which will happen in less than 22 days.
