Hi everyone! I would just like to start off by saying that 2021’ must of been THE worst year for myself as of yet..... My younger sister passed away June 10th 2021’ from battling lung cancer that spread literally just about everywhere else in a short time span of only a year and half roughly. We were only 18 months apart in age. She passed away in the hospital at the age of 33 years old , leaving behind a 12 year old daughter and a 2 1/2 year old son. My sister was and is really my only close/best friend in this life. As time moves on and you grow up into adulthood, losing touch with most of the people whom at one point in time or another I once considered a good friend.... But my sister was always there for me, to listen, to laugh, to seek advice from and share memories together as we are now adults with children of our own. Even writing this now , I’m choking back a barrage of tears welling up —- Insistent on falling down my sullen face. I would give anything to see her smiling face one last moment. If anyone has ever lost someone close to them from the monstrous, wreak havocs of terminal cancer will tell you... My sister was hardly recognizable while she had her last stay in the Hospital. This once bubbly, beautiful soul of who and what she was , was literally a shell of my former sister and best friend. In conclusion, after my enormous rant lol was to say that one of my biggest regrets is not having a vehicle to be able to spend those last 18 months of her very short life to travel the hour to her and the hour back.
So my money goal(s) for 2022’ is to save up enough to finally be able to buy myself a decent, reliable vehicle and regain my independence back after almost 5 years without a car now. Long story short .... 2 1/2-3 years ago I finally got out of a verbally, emotionally abusive, controlling marriage of 13 years!! Now if only I could have made this transition much, much, earlier I may have been able to be there for my sister during her last few years on this earth as well as for my niece and nephew..... I will get my own car this year and continue to crush my goals in honor of my best friend and sister who isn’t able to be here to do the same. Because in this short existence of a lifetime, all we can really do is honor our loved ones already gone too soon and cherish the time we have now with the people we love before their gone away from us too. . .
